got my passport

i hurt my knee. i was sitting on a greyhound bus and twisted it when i was heading to youth quake in carenport. Now my knee hurts. YQ is an interesting event in that there biggest draw (big bands) has been drooped in favour of more spiritual content. this is a great move (as far as i am concerned) but the layout of the conference seems ultimately defeating in my opinion. the choices were #1 go to an profound service with rock solid teaching and good (although sometimes messy) worship. with a place for solitude and a short time for reflection (far to short but the stage was needed shortly after each event) ..................... or you could go to some rock climbing walls, non stop free go carts, a free 24 hr eatery, 2 different comedy groups and a great magician! guess what people picked. even though the intent of the quake was for spiritual content (in part anyway) it was defeated by something that the powers that be, must have known would happen. it almost seemed like they were embarrassed by the God stuff and wanted people to chose it so they could pin the ineffectiveness of YQ. on a persons choice and not on the conference its self. am i being to harsh? it was a difficult conference to justify spending cash on. next year we will do something else. also i hurt my knee

super bowl party

Last night we had a super bowl party at my home! 26 teens in the basement with only a small biblestuddy and a football game to entertain us. About a quarter of the people were into the game and the rest were left to entertain themselves. We had great conversation times and two 7-11 runs! We talked dating and mating, we talked boys and girls, we talked house building and car hotroding, and we talked stereos and subwoofers. but we also talked about broken homes and "real dads and fake dads!" there real dads being the jerks (I has badder words typed out first but deleted them) who left there kids with a now single mom, and the "fake Dads" who came in married the moms and are doing there dead level best to raise healthy happy kids! So here is the moral. Go home and hug your dads!



Sometimes teens don’t see very clearly.
