– Great weekend. Nothing like watching my sons on the tennis court. Got sunburned. Sunscreen is for women and children. Men don’t use it. We burn and peel. Lipscomb played Kennesaw State on Friday and Mercer on Saturday. Lost both, but James played good tennis, so all is well.
– Rice preached this AM about the absurdity of Jesus being judged by humans. Luke 23. The accusers, the mockers, the curious, the uncommitted are all still judging Jesus and his followers today. Rice ended his sermon exhorting the congregation to go after CEOs this week. (“Christmas and Easter Only” people.)
– My Ugandan friend Martin Ssempa is preaching at Bethel’s U-Nite tonight in Nashville. When Martin preaches students laugh ’til they cry, and cry as they repent.
– March Madness. Final Four. I’m totally uninterested and absolutely don’t care. Didn’t watch one minute of one game. (And I didn’t stay at a Holiday Inn Express either.) But I did watch the finals of the Sony-Erickson Open.
– William‘s b’day today. 23. Wow. Couldn’t be prouder. Couldn’t ask for more. God is good. I love my fam!
– Fly to Yokohama tomorrow for our Every Nation Asia regional International Ministry Team meeting. Can’t wait to see my friends in that part of the world. Scott is always a great host.
– After Yoko, we fly to Manila, then Australia, then New Zealand, then Manila, then Nashville. Will be at Mark Conner’s church in Melbourne then at the Every Nation South Pacific conf in NZ.
– I love my job!
