Is Thanksgiving really this week? Where did 2008 go? Where is life going? I find myself asking these same questions everyday. I just got in from a long day of church, paintball, riding people around, and grocery shopping… Here are some thoughts from this week:

• Here are the posts/articles I thought were worth reading this week
• Pastor Steve Moore got a blog (believe it or not!!) – Check it out here! I’m sure there will be tons of wisdom to come in that blog!
• Atlanta was unbelievable with Jeanne Mayo and her team – I love them all!!! We got to go to the Martin Luther King memorial and hear a Pastor that walked with him speak into our lives – it was powerful.
• I listened to the series “Are You on the Path” by Keith Moore during my trip – I would definitely recommend hitting that up.
• Perry Noble continues his series for women: Beautiful, a series for Women and the men that pursue them… Highly recommend it.
• Andy Stanley’s third message in his series “The Best Question Ever” is out… download it immediately!
• This quote by Perry Noble rocked my world:

“If you aren’t willing to fight for your vision…then you have no vision…all you have is a daydream that you are begging God to make come true.”

• Zack Blair tore it up as usual at 19 North listen to the podcast here.
• Revolution has lots of changes coming up… I am so pumped. Pastor Nathan is doing a great job!

I have the week off of school… 3 day work week…turkey bowl Friday… I’m pretty pumped! Breakfast with my boys and a mentor in the morning – stoked!

Until next time…..Love you guys….Bubs

Ok… so it’s 6 a.m. (I’m leaving for Atlanta tonight so I won’t be able to blog then)and here are my reflections from the week:

• Click here for a list of all of the articles I thought were worth a read this week
• Michael Hyatt had some great blogs on increasing your online presence that you should read
• I’m leaving for Atlanta tonight to spend a few days with Jeanne Mayo and 35+ other youth pastors – I’m pretty excited …expecting God to do some big things! Whew!
• One of my heroes (Pastor Larry Bettencourt) spoke at 19 North last night – had a great message you can listen to here.
• Revolution is taking off – new website will be up soon, we’re remodeling the youth center slowly, but surely…it’s going to be awesome! Sean E Mo tore it up on Wednesday with a message on “Fun“. It’s worth a listen – Pastor Nathan is speaking this weekend (I’m anxious to listen!!)
• Pastor John spoke on having a winning marriage that fired me up this weekend! Listen here!
• Can you guys believe that Thanksgiving is almost a week away?
• I think this Friday a bunch of us are going to go to light up night – you should come (just a thought)
• Women – don’t forget that Perry Noble is in the middle of a great series for you called: Beautiful: A series for women and the men that pursue them! Listen to it!

Anyway… I don’t think I’ll be blogging this week while I am in Atlanta – when I get away… I really do want to get away from everything and let God do a huge work in my heart. I’ll miss you guys and I’ll be back on Thursday! Have a great week!

So it has been a really crazy week:

• I moved out on Saturday with two of my friends into a 3 bedroom townhouse – it’s pretty awesome! (I’ll post pictures at some point) I miss my dad and my sister – Love you guys!

• Rev was sweet – Pastor Nathan had a great message on Wednesday and David Faulk tore it up on the weekend! Our attendance has growing consistently – I am pumped about that

• Andy Stanley’s second message in his series “The Best Question Ever” is available to listen to – it’s pretty good

• I started listening to a series by Keith Moore called “The Truth about Temptation” – it’s definitely worth a listen (but so is everything brother Keith throws down!

• Here is a link to all the articles I thought were worth reading this week – enjoy!

• I get to go to Atlanta next Sunday until Thursday to hang out with Jeanne Mayo and a bunch of youth pastors – I’m pretty excited – I’ve never been to Atlanta!

That’s good for now – night world!
