Just got my first (free!) issue of a brand-new magazine called “Collide”. The tag line for the magazine is “Where media and the church converge” – definitely a tag-line that fits my heart for ministry!

The magazine is very well put together (especially for a first-issue-free release!), it has more articles than I would’ve originally expected for a first-issue, and all of the advertising throughout the magazine relates to the media-in-ministry industry. Good stuff.

My only criticism of the magazine is that they decided to review new albums in the back of the magazine. I read enough OTHER reviews in other magazines that I don’t need MORE reviews in a magazine like this. Thanks, though.

Jess and our female leadership have been planning a “girls’ night out” event for this weekend. I did the promo for it:

Tonight 12-students started a relationship with Jesus Christ at our SNL Kick-Off!

Ella is more and more incredible each new day of her life!
After a full morning working in the youth room, and an afternoon with the family I attended my first Mukwonago Football Game! Good times – even though we lost 35-0 to our rival, Arrowhead. It was a good night, though!
