life in prague…

by

A few days ago my friends, the Syvertsens, posted a link for the J. Crew ad/short film, which highlights Prague! I just had to follow and post it on my blog as well.


Unfortunately, (or Fortunately I’m not quite sure) life doesn’t quite look like this for me – no cool car, no girl, no cute kids running with balloons, and no strong jaw like the one guy model – but a young man can dream right! At least for some of that… Haha! You could probably leave the strong jaw (I’m okay with my jaw) and car off, but I’d take the rest! J. Crew really did capture some beautiful pics that are showcased in their fall catalog. I tried to find if they had the pics up somewhere outside the catalog but I could only find one (found at Love Made Visible).

Beautiful stuff and I’m stoked to see Prague featured like this!

these haunted me for 3 weeks…

by

Forgive me for not getting anything substantial up from our 3 week long trip to the Far East. I’ve been working on a monster prayer letter and the rest of the time has been filled up with coaching our junior team (although I put a TON of pics on my flickr, see below). I did want to share two videos with you, that haunted me and that I absolutely could not escape while I was there. One is “Beijing Welcomes You.” This song is so very true, I was so very surprised by the hospitality of nearly every person I encountered there. The second is the Adidas’ commercial for the games. It is interesting, it reminded me of something I’ve seen in the past. I won’t share, because I would love to hear what you think of it. Okay, off to cross some things off my to do list. Blessings…

driscoll’s newest…

Theology is, and should be, extremely practical. That is one of the reasons I love the writing and preaching of Mark Driscoll at Mars Hill Church in Seattle. His newest book is coming out next month and while I was in China the website for his new book went up, check it out Death by Love. Here is the trailor for it, which is beautiful and you can see how “big” and even “lofty” theology, to some, is extremely practical. Love it!

made it home…

by

Erin and I flew in last night and my dear friend Mark picked us up at the airport (thanks again brother!). It was absolutely beautiful to sleep in my bed last night and to lay on my couch watching some TV. I’m going to lay low before going to church this afternoon. I had a great time in China and it was great to have a long lay-over in Moscow, but it is so sweet to be home. It looks like, besides today, I will have hit the ground running this week with our junior practices starting and getting ready for STINTers. Look for more about the last three weeks soon. I’m still wondering how much I should put up, we shall see. Thanks for all the prayers over the last couple of weeks. Until next time…

safe in moscow

Hello from my bed at the Hostel Napoleon in Moscow. Yes we are in Moscow for a long lay over for a couple of days before getting back to Prague. The Olympics were great and some cool things happened beyond the medals! More to come but I wanted to post a quick update. Be a revolution!
