On The Blind Side
I had the chance to watch the movie 'The Blind Side' with Sandra Bullock, Quinton Aaron, and Tim McGraw. The movie is based off of the book by Michael Lewis called The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game. It is the remarkable true story of Michael Oher from Memphis, Tennessee. A guy that overcame tremendous conflict in life to get where he is now...a first round draft pick, offensive lineman from Ole Miss, who now plays for the Baltimore Ravens. It is amazing the resilience of the human spirit to overcome and handle conflict in life. When conflict comes to someone they can seek to overcome and make the best of their situation or they can fade out into self by a variety of things that this life has to offer. It is a great story! Go see this movie.
Here is the movie trailer:

Whirlwind
This is the latest Nooma video from Rob Bell called Whirlwind. It is on Job and finding answers to the suffering and problems of life. It's simply a beginning to the discussion. I am looking forward to discussing this with the crew from Remix on Sunday. This one is very close to my heart and position in life.

BroomBall [I]
The youth group went to a local ice rink to play broom ball for the evening. We had a nice turnout of students for this event. Broom ball is a sleeper of an event. The students and leaders had a great time playing this game. What a good time!

Laurelville 09 : 1
These are my pictures...from my old, old camera. Laurelville 2009 was a great weekend...great speaker...new mud field, perhaps the best I've experienced yet. Thanks to the leaders for giving of your heart and time.
This little snake was in our cabin!
