Left the house just a bit before 7AM this morning. I got into my non-airconditioned Plymouth Neon and headed to Ft. Wayne. I met up with buddies Glen Robinson and Rob Tippey at the Family Christian Bookstore’s “Church Leader’s Breakfast”.
Breakfast was sponsored by Chic-Fil-A. Bless them!
We got the first Rob Bell NOOMA DVD (already own them, so Kory gets a free gift!) – “RAIN”. We also got 33% of anything we bought this morning.
I walked out with $88 worth of swag.
Included in my bag of swag:
CD – “Blessed be Your Name” – the Songs of Matt Redman Vol. 1
BOOK – “Seizing Your Divine Moment” – Erwin McManus
BOOK – “Pocket Guide to the Apocolypse” – Jason Boyett
BOOKS – “The Complete Chronicles of Narnia” – C.S. Lewis
DVD – “For All You’ve Done” – Hillsong
DVD – “The Pond” – an at-the-counter, impulse $5 purchase!
I also got another DVD I purchased through the “internets” last week – Brock Gill‘s “Hidden Agenda”. He’s a Christian Illusionist. I’ve seen him LIVE and have watched his first DVD as well.
I will be media-tized for the next few weeks. I want to read the entire Chronicles of Narnia in the next months before the movie comes out. First up, “The Magician’s Nephew”. Wish me the best!
Kory arrives in town for the weekend in a few hours. I’m looking forward to spending some time with him this weekend. We’ve got no plans, but that’s usually the best time spent! He’s got some pretty amazing graphic-art work going on, so I always love seeing what he’s up to with that when he’s in town.
Got a call from Jeremy Summers yesterday proclaiming the launch of his new personal-blog – we’ll see how long THIS one lasts!
At coffee and lunch today, I had some great conversations with Glen and Rob about life, ministry, and the like. Glen is planning on taking me to an Orthodox Church service in Ft. Wayne in the next while. Should be an interesting experience.
