Big Glasses and Old Videos
We dug through our video archive today and found a VHS tape from Easter of 1996. It was a record attendance Sunday--42 people. It was funny seeing those old faces. I just kept saying, "That person left. That person left. That person left." The funny thing is that I can't blame them! The only reason I attended the church back then was because I had to--I was the pastor!
The funniest thing about the video is that I'm wearing a suit. And old-school glasses had to be the largest glasses on the face of the face! Holy Cow. We laughed so hard.
My peripheral vision was amazing back in the day! I think my glasses could have doubed as solar panels for the Pentagon! The only thing is that I had to hire a window cleaning company to clean the lenses!
If you're struggling with pride, just look at an old picture from about ten years ago! Works wonders!

Mark,
You are so right, old pictures and humility go hand in hand, especially when you've got kids! I attended NCC with my 19 yr old son who attends GWU back in early October. I've been an evotional blog partaker and podcast suscriber ever since.
Tried to get a copy of "Lion" at our local Christain Bookstore in Louisville, KY. They had to look you up, found you do exist, but had no copies on the shelf. Am I stuck with Amazon on this????

We must see it! Every year we celebrate by watching Jon Ferguson lead worship at the first CCC service in 1989. It's a beautiful thing...
I was at a bookstore in Florence, Alabama this past week and they had 4 copies on the shelf...The clerk asked if it was a good read and I was like it's a great read! She said she was going to read it :)
