Looking Forward To The Main Event

Tomorrow is Bethel’s annual Main Event.  Our youth staff has been preparing for this for nearly a month.  Main Event has always been a activity where the spiritual tone for the year is set, and life-altering decisions are made.  We have fun watching the game but right in the middle we take about an hour and have our service.  Matt for the first time has not planned the entire service, which with as much responsibilities he has this year it’s not a surprise. However Trey, Spencer, Luis, Eric, and I have jumped right in at assisted Matt, thus allowing him to focus on the message that he is going to bring to us.  So if you happen to read this post before the end of the game, pray that everything would go well and God would work in the lives of the youth who come.

So about two and a half years ago unlinked media was born as a blog becuase i didn’t like the .blogspot that I had.  About the same time Tim at http://unsoundtransient.com got his blog too.  Renae  got her blog about a year and a half ago.   Now, at least 13 other people that I know have personal blogs.  Not bad for trend0setting.  Any one interested in getting your self a blog and not wanting to pay for it should go through  wordpress.com they are the best.

Psalm 24

I read this Psalm this morning and really enjoyed the passage.  Read through it and let me know what you get out of it.

1. The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.  2. For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.  3. Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?  4. He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.  5. He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.  6. This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.  7. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.  8. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.  9. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.  10Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.

So this is my first blog post since I have turned 23.  It’s going ro be random since I have nothing specific to talk about.  We on Januaray 1st, Spencer let me know that he had finanally recovered our honeymoon pictures from the corrrupted SD card which excited both Renae and I, and it’s so nice to finally have them.   School is going well, this week is spirit week at bethel and yesterday was crazy hair day, so I went to school with a mohawk.  Today is red, white, and blue day.   Bethel’s Main Event is just around the corner on February 1st so that begs the question who do you think will win the Super Bowl.

Renae has her first volleyball game today, so after school gets out I’ll be heading to the gym to watch her team play.  Maybe I’ll put some picture up tonight or tomorrow of spirit week.  We’ll see.
