I think it's cool that the title of the song also conveys the attitudes of our hearts while we were in Denver. I created this video and had every intention of posting it while we were still there, but the university had to take down the server and do some maintenance, thus making it impossible.
Even though we are home I still have 2 more videos to post after this one. I'll keep updating for the next few days with videos and pictures.
Onetruemedia has a new video viewer with a larger format, I think it'll make viewing the videos even better.
Until then,

Love Them Like Jesus
I think that this video speaks for itself. Thanks for your prayers, the Lord is hearing our cry. Please continue to pray for the lost children of this community.
Until then,

What If His People Prayed
Today we began VBS at 2 churches and the Lord blessed! Both churches had children that had never been to church before. Our students had the opportunity to engage them and to interact with them on a one-on-one level. It was amazing as we watched the Holy Spirit move and work right before our eyes.
After lunch we went to First Southern Baptist Church in Westminster and canvassed the neighborhoods surrounding the church. We passed out flyer's to families telling them about the church's block party and VBS. The block party is Wednesday night and VBS is next week.
It is a rarity that we get to see the fruits of our labor instantaneously. We had no sooner gotten back to the church when the Pastor, Dan Dellinger, told me that they had already received 2 phone calls inquiring about both events! Our kids were so excited!
Our next 2 days are extremely demanding. We won't stop all day. We go from VBS to canvassing to a block party with a concert. Please continue to pray! We will need physical strength and spiritual strength to make it through the next 2 days. "The joy of the Lord is my strength."
Here's a video of some of today's activities.

Desired Of All Nations
Today was an exceptional day! We rose early to a hearty breakfast at CCU and departed for Mountain View Baptist Church where we participated in Sunday School and led in worship. We shared the platform this morning with the Strength Team and were amazed at the feats of strength.
We ate pizza with the students from MVBC and had the opportunity to hang out with them for a while. We set up for a block party in the parking lot and welcomed the community to enjoy a day of fun. We had 3 inflatables, snow-cones, games and cotton candy. We had such a great time and the Lord blessed our efforts. We were able to pre-register several kids for VBS that had never been to the church before. We pray for great things.
On personal note, I was so very proud of our students today. Their attitudes were positive and they were so cooperative and helpful. The weather was hot and they were still tired from all the travel the 2 days prior. They worked very hard today and did it without any complaining. They were terrific! What a blessing they are to me. They were the kids we have prayed they would be. I thank the Lord for each one of them and continue to pray for His influence in their lives.
Tomorrow we begin Vacation Bible School at 2 churches and will do some canvassing during the afternoon.
Your prayers have sustained us and we are yearning for the Lord to do great things among us.

Day 2
Good.....day,
We are here! We arrived at the University around 8:30 P.M. We were greeted by some students and adults from Mountain View Baptist Church with snack bags for everyone! It was a warm and wonderful greeting to Colorado.
The Lord was very good to us today. We made great time and were able to keep our stops to a minimum. Our bus driver is an old friend, or should I say, longtime friend, and he is awesome. He keeps us on schedule while pointing out interesting facts about various cities and town. We played trivia games, Scene It and watched several movies to help pass the time.
We stopped in Colorado Springs for dinner. As we were leaving the sun was beginning to set and the clouds were lifting. The combination of the clouds, sunset, mountains and then throw in the beautiful Air Force Academy Chapel and it was a breathtaking view.
I hope to post a video on sometime Sunday and possibily some pictures. Check back for updates.

Day 1
Good Morning, er...evening,
We arrived in OKC after a great day of traveling. We encountered only a little trouble when we had a blowout on our luggage trailer between Madisonville and Centerville. We bought 2 new tires and were back on the road within an hour.
We stopped and lunched in Lewisville and arrived in OKC around 3:00 P.M. We toured the Oklahoma City National Memorial, ate at Chelino's on the Bricktown Canal and took a water taxi ride down the canal.
Saturday we will have a long day of travel as we head on to Denver. The Lord has been very good to us and everyone is in good spirits and good attitudes prevail. Please pray for us as we travel all day on Saturday.
Check back on Saturday night for some pictures and maybe a video.
