Sleepover

I was treated to a wonderful meal by one of the families that volunteers with the student ministry.  During the meal, I invited their second son to come over and hang out.  It gets a little lonesome these days with both of my roommates gone.  So, we just played Call of Duty 4 and now he is playing Halo 3.  COD4 is amazing.  The environments are sick and the game is really tough.  I guess it is only tough because I am not very good at shooting games.

The service tonight was awesome.  Brad brought it strong about the fall of man and our need for a hero (Jesus) to rescue us from the oppressive forces of sin.  The series we are doing right now is EPIC, a seven week look at the entire Bible.  It is going to be outstanding.  I got to lead a small group again this week, and I realized how much I missed teaching the students and pouring into them.  I am going to try and set a great example for the volunteers by how I lead my group.  If I am not willing to invest like we ask our leaders to, then I cannot expect them to fulfill any of the commitments.  Also, I had to go buy 501 apples for the illustration.  The lady at the register almost refused to ring us up because she had no clue how to scan boxes without codes.  It was pretty funny.

It is snowing right now.  What the junk?!  It only snows once every other year.  This is awesome.  I got to throw some snowballs before coming in for the night.  Good times.  I hope that it sticks around a little bit tomorrow, that way I can go play in it more.
