We used to go to the drive-in in Mercedes. It was fun to load a pile of people in and see who could last for the double feature. Since we've been to Bandera our youth group has gone once to the drive-in in San Antonio. I guess I could have read through the whole link to find out if it's still open. Anyways, find out about America's drive-ins here: THE INTERNET FOCALPOINT FOR DRIVE-IN MOVIE THEATRESStay blessed...john...

So, I think I'm in the minority on this one. Over the last few weeks I've attended meetings and have had conversations with individuals about this topic. I can' help but get the same feeling from most people.Our conference is pushing a new-church development campaign. Each church has been encouraged (you fill in whatever word you want) to make a pledge. Our church, and I suspect others may as well, have some concerns and issues about that. I think I understand...

Well, Gloria and I have known for some time that May was going to be a busy month; we were right. The whole graduation thing was fun, but I'm glad that's over. This past weekend, as you know, we attended the KAIROS #19 at Torres.Is there ever a bad KAIROS walk? I would think not. That said, this was probably the best one I have participated in.

So, the graduation ceremony is tonight and all the family is making their way in town. It'll be a great time. Sunday is Mother's Day, as I'm sure you all remember; this will be the first Mother's Day since I've been married my mom will have all her kids together. Anyways, I came across this site. It's called BibleMap. For those who can be geographically challenged when it comes to biblical places--me being one--this is a great tool. I thought it would...

The Church

I came across this poem that was posted here.How much I criticize you, my church,and yet how much I love you!You have made me suffer more than anyone,and yet I owe more to you than to anyone. I should like to see you destroyed, and yet I need your presence.You have given me much scandal,and yet you alone have made me understand holiness.Never in this world have I seen anything,more compromised, more false, yet never have I touched anything more pure,...
