Behind The Scenes: A Morning @ Our Millersburg Campus

I had the privilege of leading worship at our Millersburg campus this past weekend. April and I had an awesome time out there. NewPointe: Millersburg meets in the auditorium at West Holmes High School every Sunday morning. It is a great experience all the way around. While I was there... I learned a couple of things about Millersburg:

#1 They have really got their act together. What a great experience and a great group of volunteers to serve along side of.

#2 They LOVE Bon Jovi! Ha ha!

You'll have to check out this behind scenes glimpse of my morning @ M'burg... to see what I mean.

How many NewPointe worship leaders does it take to figure out the newest version of ProTools?

"So you're sayin' we wouldn't even have to move the mic stand... right?"

The temperature last Sunday morning... according to the dash of my car. 1 degree (not including wind chill factor). OUCH!

Eating at El Chico (one of my favorite Mexican restaurants) with my mom and dad while we were in Nashville on Christmas vacation.

The chicken, mushroom and bacon burrito that I ordered at El Chico. Mmmmmmm.

My sister's dog, Lilly, loves to look at herself in anything that reflects. Here is a pic of Donna doing her make-up. Lilly is enjoying the view on the back side of her mirror. TOO CUTE.

April's Second Chance Creations

My wife is one of the most creative people that I know. She has a real knack for taking something that appears to be old, used and worn out... and turning it into something very unique, creative and cool. When she walks through the woods... she doesn't just see limbs, acorns, leaves and rocks... she sees beautiful natural arrangements and centerpieces.

Well... April has wanted to open her own store for quite a while now. She has really needed a place to display and sell her unique creations. So I am excited to announce that she has opened her own online store with Auctiva and E-bay. The store is called (appropriately) April's Second Chance Creations. You can check out her new store right here. She only has some of her refurbished jewelry listed at this time, but very soon she will have her arrangements and re-purposed creations listed there. She will also be selling her stuff out of a store in Walnut Creek, Ohio starting in March of this year. More details about that adventure to come. Be sure to check out April's Second Chance Creations.

Unbelievable creativity on a limited budget

If you haven't seen this viral music video yet... prepare to have your mind absolutely BLOWN. Evidentally... it was created by Fede Alvarez, an amateur producer from Uruguay. He spent a total of $300 (three hundred dollars) to make the video. AMAZING! Now... he has been contracted to work on a movie for the company that produced the "Spiderman" movies. He stands to make a whopping 30 Million dollars on the deal. Not bad... huh? You can read the whole story here. I love to see creativity at this level... with such limited resources. We really have no excuses... right?
