Prayer Firday #30 + dale has landed

IAGREEWITHDALE.COM is live and ready for fresh content each week this term. IAWD is our attempt at adding some extra energy to this term – to fight the winter blues! Let me know what you think of the site.

Prayer:

  • Thank God for shred hotham. Good times. No deaths. Talks went well. Pray for conversions to be genuine
  • Pray for term 3 at ccecyouth
  • Row is speaking tonight to juniors from Daniel 1 and 2 – God is not dead.
  • I’m kicking off a series on the Cross tonight at seniors.

Garage Hymnal – new album

GH have a new album out in August: Bring on the Day. I’ve just been listening to some of their tracks on MySpace. Sounds sweet. Looking forward to the album coming out. (Listen to GH on the Poddy.)

How Long? has a bit of an R&B feel to it. It’s hot like butter… that’s fo shizzle! It sounds a bit like a Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men collaboration!**

**Note to self: don’t let blog readers know I have a collection of 7 Boyz II Men and 2 Mariah Carey CD’s

Saved by the Bell

How good was Saved by the Bell!!! Ode to early 90s Saturday morning TV. Some people used to call me Screech. I’m not sure if it was because of my afro hair, annoying personality or a combination of the two.

Largest head on Hotham

Shred Hotham is going great guns. Great bunch of leaders, great bunch of campers. Talks have been going well. Two down – three to go. Snow and weather has been gold. This year we have to wear helmets. I have a large head. The largest I know of. The hire shop didn’t have helmets big enough to fit me. They had to buy one from Sweeden! (Not quite… but they did have to buy one from a supplier!!)

Jesus came to seek and save what was lost.

Peaceout.

Lost and Found: The Series

Series aim:
1) To see that Jesus came to seek and save the lost
2) To see that without Jesus you are lost
3) To see that only through the death of Jesus can you be found

I’m writing a series of talks and studies on Lost and Found. These aren’t talks or studies… just some of my thinking in preparation. Stay tuned for the talks on talkcast.ccecyouth.com

In #1 we see that Jesus came to seek and to save the lost. Throughout #2-9 we meet a whole bunch of different people – both real and fictional – who were lost. Some realised it. Others didn’t. If you aren’t a follower of Jesus and you’ve stumbled onto my blog (or you’re a regular reader) – let me encourage you to see yourself clearly: you are lost… and see Jesus clearly: he died and rose so that you could be forgive and have life eternal.

Shout out to James and the peeps at Central Espresso – the Best Coffee in Gosford – it kept me going with all my early starts (6am in Gosford is very early for a night owl!) over the last couple of weeks.
