15 years ago today, an amazing journey began. I can still remember it vividly…
- Standing at the front of the church, looking up as the doors at the top of the aisle opened and my beautiful bride-to-be appeared
- Everything around me fading as I looked into her eyes, experiencing joy like I’d never known
- Kissing in the stairwell after we exited the sanctuary, finding it hard to believe that we were finally married
As amazing as that day was, the memories along the way over the course of the next 15 years are what cause my heart to leap even today.
Andrea: I can truly say that I am in love with you more today than I ever have been. I find it hard to believe that I have been blessed so much, but am incredibly grateful each day that God has given you to be my soulmate for life.
I love you.

But Apple is forever! :-)
I do agree, though...a few years back I *really* wanted TiVo...but now that we have a DVR, not so much.
Andrea Ediger commented on I Want to Be the Pleasant Surprise:
For me, you are still the pleasant surprise. You are not easily offended or angered and you have abundant lovingkindness. I know more about who God is and how He loves because of you.

What Are Thin Places?
"Thin Places" are rich in Celtic tradition. They are the places in our lives where the divine and the natural worlds come so close together that we can catch a glimpse of God. For the Celtics these places were very real - places within creation where we could physically go. The Thin Places in our own lives are those moments where the space between us & the Kingdom is thin, when we are introduced to a greater glimpse of Who He is through our experiences and through the stories of others.

As of this weekend, I’ve had and used Apple’s iPad for a month now. In that time I’ve purposely resisted writing much about it here and refrained from giving too detailed thoughts about it when people have asked. I had my opinions, but I wanted to make sure my thoughts were well grounded in regular, … Read On...

Excited about the Chick-fil-A Leadercast that GiANT is putting on in a little less than two weeks now. We sold out of the Atlanta live site last week, and have somewhere around 430 locations nationwide carrying the simulcast event.
As I did last year, I’ll have the opportunity to spend some time with one of my … Read On...

6ood article chris. I can see how in a meeting passing the pad around works well. I also like the thought about your kids seeing you play instead of assuming you are working...and the reverse is true I assume...in a boring meeting your boss thinks you are working when you are really playing :)..only on the ipad.
Thanks for some real world insight. Hope your family is doing well. Tell them I said hello.
