Phish

I can't say that I am a big 'rocker' by any means, but talent is talent. Specifically, Phish's keyboardist, Page McConnell, is brilliant. Take a look...

Baptism




Jalen will be getting baptised this weekend at the all church picnic.

He has made me a proud Dad (despite his hair styling) and I couldn't be more proud of his public profession of faith in Christ through baptism.

Maybe for some, baptism simply means a little dousing of the head with water or perhaps a submersion of the body in a tank, pool, river, sea (name your body of water). Or perhaps, many think baptism is for Baptists (who knows) and only a ritual done at a very young age.

But for Jalen and our family, baptism is more than a ritual. It is the mature person making their own choice to follow Christ for the rest of their lives and making that decision known to others.

The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:35-36)

Grace & Peace,
