Pray for rain - cornerstone memories

This morning I was praying for rain (again) - you know, not just LOOKING LIKE it's going to rain, but actually giving us some - and my thoughts turned to the band by the same name. I remember the first time I ever heard PFR was at a Cornerstone Festival some number of years ago. Ahhh, the memories. Actually, son Isaac is spending the week at C-stone this week. I've never done a whole week, but we used to really like attending. C-stone is a Christian music festival put on by the Jesus People every summer for... a long time. They own this huge farm near Bushnell, IL and every year around fourth of July or so they bring in hundreds of bands, speakers, and artists from all over the world. You can hear big name acts, new bands, one year we listened to an amateur drummer bang his trap set all night long next to our tent.

At any rate, I miss going to cornerstone. I miss hanging around the Jesus People. They were missional before it was a cool Christian buzz-word. I miss my son. Hope he and everyone is having a nice time. I also wish like heck it would rain.
