39/365: Surprise small group candlelight & worship night. Loved it! Praise God!

February 8, 2011.

This Tuesday’s small group (Ecclesia bible study group led by Scott & Hannah Key) was a small night of prayer, worship, and reflection. Out of the norm, but necessary.

Calming. Thanks be to God!

37/365: Superbowl Party @ Kate, Katie, & Kyle’s

37/365: Superbowl Party @ Kate, Katie, & Kyle's w/ friends (@geeology)

A wild & crazy :P superbowl party with Ecclesia small groupers at Kate, Katie, and Kyle’s apartment.

The ability to pause & replay the game has revolutionized the watching experience. Watching that hilarious commercial or reliving a cameraman getting creamed on the sidelines over and over again, brilliant!

Best Superbowl face ever! Hahaha :P

Bleeeegh :P

30/365: Phil Wickham Sings It Out

30/365: At @philwickham concert singing it out to our God! Fun night w/ @geeology & @TheRealCDub09

Sunday, Sarah invited me to a Phil Whickham concert at Friendswood Community Church. I met several more cool, Freebirds-loving Aggies there (Chris, Jamison, Ian…). An amazing night of praise & worship to our loving God followed!

A Divine Romance
by Phil Whickham 

The fullness of Your grace is here with me
The richness of Your beauty’s all I see
The brightness of Your glory has arrived
In Your presence God, I’m completely satisfied

FOR YOU I sing I dance
Rejoice in this divine romance
Lift my heart and my hands
To show my love, to show my love

A deep deep flood, an Ocean flows from You
Of deep deep love, yeah it’s filling up the room
Your innocent blood, has washed my guilty life
In Your presence God I’m completely satisfied.

Listen to “Divine Romance” here

22/365 - UH Cougar Adam Smith’s Priceless Expression

22/365: UH Cougar Adam Smith's Priceless Expression

Saturday night, the UH Cougars men’s basketball team played UTEP Miners at our home in Hofheinz Pavilion. It was an exciting game with a relatively great turnout! Great friends to cheer & yell with, even an Aggie helped ;) Thanks Sarah! However, we fell to UTEP 57-52 almost collapsing the mines on UTEP (too soon?).

Next time, Cougars! GO COOGS!!!

11/365 - Small Group Sharing The Love

Small Group loves food

Tuesday nights are the highlight of my week. On Tuesdays @ 7pm, I have the pleasure of growing with some of kindest & sincerest people. Broken & sinful, yes. However, redeemed & most joyful in Christ, indeed! May God bless our group & place His hand over each of our lives this year.

We hang out, invest our lives with each other, cook & share recipes & eat wonderful food, pour over God’s Holy Word together, ask for His Will to be done in our lives, our friends, our city, & our world, & pray to our loving God that sent Jesus, His son, who died to set us free from the bondage & eternal death of sin. Mhmmm. Love you & thank God that I found you all.

The picture above is a combined effort creation by Emily & Amanda. French crepes & delicious salad!

Interested?! Come chill with us on Tuesday nights @ 7pm in the Montrose area of Houston.

8/365 - Christmas Caroling, Party On

8/365: Christmas Caroling, Party On!

My Austin family (Heidi, Will, & Sammy) is in town for part of the weekend for Heidi’s birthday (Jan. 9th, tomorrow)! As such, today was full of celebrations, eating, sipping coffee & tea, conversations out on the sunny back porch, car pictures, a short bike ride, & birthday presents.

At night, we had a crazy Christmas party (yes, a tad late) with family friends: the Berridge, Edoo, & Nguyen families. MASSIVE amount of yummy savory & sweet foods, laughs, presents, Christmas Carols & joyful songs, & Taboo!
