4 inches of rain can make you go wild.
Imagine along the highway in town. A service road to one side. A 1/4 mile of ditch. Filled with rainwater.
Now, put a half ton on the service road, a young adult in the water, with wave board in hand. At his signal the truck speeds off and waves arise from the ditch. Part way down he wipes out.
The newest extreme sport – ditch boarding!!
We were just to a marriage.
A marriage of ideas – yes!
The couple who got married have all sorts of independent thoughts. They didn’t want clinking of glasses. They would kiss as long as you could keep a hula hoop going.
They lived in a rose theme. When he proposed he gave her 365 roses. We all got roses at the reception. And when they are old and fight and can’t talk to each other (which, of course never happens to us old couples), they were told to at least leave a rose behind to let the other know “I love you.”
A marriage of preferences – yes!
Both are doctors (finishing that long road of training). Both love the outdoors. Both are tall (sometimes shoes help, sometimes you are just tall!). And both love Jesus.
Not a bad start!
I love words.
When this phrase was given to me, I just ate it up!
Our family of churches is very interested in what we call “missions”. For us that means sending out people of like mind to talk about what we consider to be priority in life – Jesus.
In the past number of years we have funded what seemed to be far away people. Now we want to figure a way to link with our missions people so that they have a face and a place in our memories. Our church has been asked to consider being on the leading edge – to try and work at ways we can make our connection with our missionaries seamless.
Thus we could become a “SLEA”. I love acronyms as well! (Although I would prefer “SLED” – Seamless Link Early aDopter. Seems to imply that we will be moving along!)
Keep tuned for further details as they become available!
The Left Behind series is going public – in churches. The premiere of the next movie will only be in churches – hopefully making this the largest distribution chain in North America!
The idea is to get Hollywood right were they will listen! In the pocketbook. If they see the distribution of movies being profitable in the church market, they might make suitable movies.
Besides the question of facility usage for religious purposes, the taking of funds on behalf of a movie chain, and the constant question of previewing movies (I’ve yet to meet someone who has been recommended a movie by a friend and not been disappointed!), and a few other questions I have, maybe there is something to this??
