Me and j.g.

This morning as people were arriving for our worship gathering I was in my office grooving to Josh Garrel's CD "Stone Street." I thought to myself, "I should always listen to J.G. before worship." I mean, I just can't help but move, and it puts me in a good mood.

Then, we met Isaac and Laura for lunch at EOC, and somehow JG came up in conversation. He is affiliated with the tribe of churches son Isaac attends. I asked if he was still pastoring (He used to pastor a church in Indianapolis). Isaac didn't think he was anymore. He believes he went full-time into music. It would appear that way looking at his 2007 schedule. Not much there for '08 though. I would LOVE to have him come play here. I'm just not sure how it would go over though. And I would be embarrassed if like no one was here.

I was actually going to play and sing for a "special" this morning. I chickened out at the last minute though. Jane filled in nicely by playing an instrumental of one of my favorite hymns (Be Thou My Vision). I don't know why I get so stinking nervous about playing alone. I mean, I sing and play almost every single Sunday... why can't I do it? I used to. I guess it keeps me from the dilemma Josh faced - having to decide between pastoring and playing full-time. Ha! Yeah. I'm not there.

But... I can dig him on Sunday mornings whilst I am here. Because here ain't so bad, ya know.

I just finished up the 2007 Annual Reports. I decided to use hot pink for the cover. =) I'm thinking of giving away prizes at the annual meeting too. You know: who has attended longest, who drove the furthest, etc. I'm sure I have enough trinkets advertisers send out to make it worthwhile.

Peace out, folks; but more importantly - peace in.
