Pre-Weekend Update

Recently, I've been reading this book called "The One Thing You Can't Do In Heaven" by Mark Cahill. It's about witnessing and sharing your faith with non-believers to draw them to Christ; since this is the one thing you can't do in Heaven. It's a practical, easy to follow, step-by-step guide to begin sharing your faith. It's a very quick, engaging read. I highly recommend it. I've been feeling very convicted over the past year to share my faith with people but I didn't' really know where to start or how to do it effectively. So I asked my Aunt and she recommended this one to get started. Mark Cahill will go to any measure to talk to people about Christ; he has even picked up prostitutes and paid them to hop in a his car just to talk. Some blow him off, but most times he has amazing conversations with them. That takes guts.

The Longshots had a big double-header last night. Our first game took forever. In fact, it got called in the 5th inning since it was going so long. We ended up losing 17-18 or something like that. The bats were hot let me tell you. Our second game started out incredible slow. We were down 0-8 going into the bottom of the 3rd. Then we got seven runs to make it 7-8. they got a few more runs, then we got a few, and it was tied 10-10 in the bottom of the seventh so we went into extra innings. They got two runs, then we got three, winning it 13-12. "Mr. Camann" aka "Shaft" aka "A-Cams" aka "Camshaft" give us the winning hit to drive in the winning run. It was a pretty intense game with a lot of sliding into bases, aggressive base running. The wives brought food to eat in between games so that was pretty sweet. We also got some nice team photos, here is one:



This past week I finally got around to cleaning my office. I seriously haven't cleaned it in about a year and it was WAY overdue. Check out what it looked like:






Ridiculous I know. So now it's clean and organized and I hope to keep it like that for a while.

Tonight is Rock Band Night 2.0 with our book group. Should be a ton of fun! We'll order some pizza and rock out 'til our heart's content. I may have to try singing "Jimmy and the Lords of the Underworld" again. Yes, it is inappropriate, but such a challenge!

Tomorrow morning I have to get up early and drive to Milwaukee to do the Milwaukee Brewers Sausage Race 5k with some friends at 9am. It finishes in Miller Park. I really hope to pound the pavement and get 19:50 or so with my bum knee. So we'll see. After that we'll have a little tailgate party and I may or may not go to the game. The race registration comes with a ticket but I need to get back to Madison and get some stuff done. Since the Crew is doing so well and Ryan Braun is such a pimp I just may have to go to the game.

Then on Sunday I'm working sound for the morning services in the rockin' Westside venue. I'll crank it to 11 once again. Be sure to be there if you want to worship the Lord at 95 decibels.

Stay tuned...
