Husband can’t believe i drink my cranberry juice from an etched-crystal wine glass every morning. It just looks so pretty, I can’t help it.

Hazy memories of last night
Beautiful Greek antipasto cooked by my man for dinner

Previous Summer Camps I’ve amped myself up to TAKE ON CAMP and !!SMASH IT!!. I’ve read my bible more, listened to worship music all the time, fasted for a couple of weeks and on and on it went.
This year I realised, there is nothing I can do to make people connect with God. He does the work. Sure, we can create...

Dave Hack
Guys, Dave is such a great pastor. I am so stoked for 2011 at Youth + Young Adults. You are so going to want to be a part of what’s going on.

Get praying for 2011. God is going to be doing massive...
