Mr. & Mrs. Stephen

On New Years Eve my brother was married to his sweetheart Joyce. Our family nearly froze on our visit to Indianapolis, but our hearts were warmed by their wedding.

Baby Micah & Uncle Phil

July 4th my sister Elyse and her husband Rob celebrated the birth of their first son, Micah Benjamin. He is adorable!
Everyone seems so excited and joyful, too! I want to thank you all for celebrating with us; there were so many fireworks, huge nationwide gatherings, tons of parties, and many other exciting festivities. We are so touched and honored! Wow! Even the next morning I could hear some pops and booms from some extended revelers. You all are the best!
Micah came in at 8lbs 21.5" We figure the stork must have traveled pretty far because Micah is pretty jet lagged, mostly sleeping, eating, and crying from time to time.
Keep the new family in your prayers as they adjust to diaper changes and 3am feedings. The whole family got to see him in the middle of July and it was an awesome time!
Praise the Lord! God is Great!

Sorry for not posting more. I'll be sure to post some cool stuff more often.
For now, here is a picture of me with a pirate (veggie pirate, who doesn't do anything.)

The Sound of Doctrine

This past week I have been listening to Mark Driscoll's sermons from Mars Hill Church in Seattle. He is preaching a series on Doctrine: What Christians Should Believe. It is POWERFUL!
I highly recommend it to anyone. Let me know what you think.
Check it out!
God is Great!

Will it Blend?

Is there anything more manly than wanton destruction and Chuck Norris?
I say, "No, there is not!"
