Free Logos Book
Hey, if you are not familiar with Logos software, it's incredible Bible Study software that gives you a full library on your computer. I have a copy that Brett gave me. I'm not familiar with how to use it to it's fullest potential yet, but I love it. They're giving away a new commentary for free here.

Huge Opportunity
Last night I had the amazing opportunity to preach at FBC Woodstock. You can see a video of the service here. It amazes me how the camera adds 50 lbs...
God has absolutely been awesome in my life this year. It was great getting to see some old friends from Acworth. It was fun!
Today I'm moving boxes...back to reality.
Last night really encouraged me about the future!
It also encouraged me to go on a diet. Slim Fast for lunch.

It's all a blur & Sermon Stealers
Today we took the kids out on the lake. I took off on the waverunner, turned my head to make sure that noone was too close to me so that I could make a quick turn, and my glasses flew off and sunk (sank?). Now everything is blurry. I have a set of contacts that are a year old. I need them to last 4 days. Monday I'm heading out of town back to Knoxville. I'll be back late Tuesday. Hopefully I can get to the eye doctor Wednesday.
I completed another CLEP this week. Oh yeah. I'm down to 3 classes left for college. I will hopefully be knocking one of those out with a CLEP in a couple of weeks.
From looking at the syllabi's for my 2 classes that start Monday, it looks as though I'm about to be really busy for the next few weeks, in addition to all of the other stuff in "life" that's going on. There's lots of travel coming up. September is going to be busy!
I'm sick of people stealing sermons. I know guys that are church planters doing it. I know guys who are "established" pastors that are doing it.
I don't care what style you are. I don't care how much you do in your community or how good your heart or intentions are. If you take someone elses material and present it as your own, you are being dishonest and God doesn't honor a lack of integrity. Our ministries will always be limited if we lack integrity, not just morally, but in our teaching and preaching as well.
I've seen a lot of stuff this year as I've been with Pastor Johnny. I've seen the good, the bad and the ugly. I'll be a better man and minister if I remember these lessons, mistakes and errors of others and avoid them!
I'm getting ready to preach next Sunday night at Woodstock for the 6:00 service. I have my text picked out finally, so it's time to put the message together (my own message).

Losers in the News
What a jerk
What a freak
On a different note...
Clep #4 is done and now, barring any unforseen circumstances, I'm done with College in December! Rock on!
By the way, I'm praying for direction on what to preach at FBCW on the 24th. If God has suggestions through you for me, I'd be glad to hear them!
This year is rocking!
