Nothingness




That's exactly what I did yesterday... nothingness, and it felt great. Sarah and I hung out and relaxed with our little boy, we watched the Giants lose, and I got about 3/4's of the way through a book called Youth Ministry 3.0 by Mark Ostreicher, the President of Youth Specialties. Now at First I wasn't really excited about this book because I thought it was the new "trendy" book that all the "hip" Youth Pastors would be reading, but after hearing enough about it I finally caved because my curiosity got the best of me. I have to say that after reading the majority of it, I am thoroughly impressed by the amount of knowledge Marko brings to the table, and not just facts and figures but real life experience blended with a matter-of-fact where we need to go mentality. It has been a great read so far and am hoping to finish it tonight.

So between that and relaxing all day yesterday and a great staff meeting this morning I am fired up for today, this week, and the Mission Trip we are leaving for this Sunday. No real pertinent info for you, but God is good and Happy Youthing.
