Mythbusters Adam Savage @Twitter
What would you say to Adam or Jamie from Mythbusters if you bumped into them on the street? What if you bumped into them on Twitter.com? First if you do not have a Twitter account, get one. I saw a tweet go out to “donttrythis” and the content was about not taking Buster this time the he and Jamie would have to be the dummies. I shot them a direct message about Blake loving the show and to keep up the good work. Here is what I got back:
Technology amazes me sometimes. Also check out the post from Pastor Mark from Mars Hill Church. I am parked on the couch ready to catch the program on ABC. I am interested to see what caught the news media attention. It was probably his series on tough questions. He recently did a strong message series about the tough question related to “sex” of course and other things.

Rick Warren Prayer
Rick Warren’s Prayer before President Barack Obama’s Inauguration.
Let us pray.
Almighty God, our father, everything we see and everything we can’t see exists because of you alone. It all comes from you, it all belongs to you. It all exists for your glory. History is your story.
The Scripture tells us Hear, oh Israel, the Lord is our God; the Lord is one. And you are the compassionate and merciful one. And you are loving to everyone you have made.
Now today we rejoice not only in America’s peaceful transfer of power for the 44th time. We celebrate a hinge-point of history with the inauguration of our first African-American president of the United States.
We are so grateful to live in this land, a land of unequaled possibility, where the son of an African immigrant can rise to the highest level of our leadership.
And we know today that Dr. King and a great cloud of witnesses are shouting in Heaven.
Give to our new president, Barack Obama, the wisdom to lead us with humility, the courage to lead us with integrity, the compassion to lead us with generosity. Bless and protect him, his family, Vice President Biden, the Cabinet, and every one of our freely elected leaders.
Help us, oh God, to remember that we are Americans, united not by race or religion or blood, but to our commitment to freedom and justice for all.
When we focus on ourselves, when we fight each other, when we forget you, forgive us. When we presume that our greatness and our prosperity is ours alone, forgive us. When we fail to treat our fellow human beings and all the Earth with the respect that they deserve, forgive us.
And as we face these difficult days ahead, may we have a new birth of clarity in our aims, responsibility in our actions, humility in our approaches, and civility in our attitudes, even when we differ.
Help us to share, to serve and to seek the common good of all.
May all people of good will today join together to work for a more just, a more healthy and a more prosperous nation and a peaceful planet. And may we never forget that one day all nations and all people will stand accountable before you.
We now commit our new president and his wife, Michelle, and his daughters, Malia and Sasha, into your loving care.
I humbly ask this in the name of the one who changed my life, Yeshua, Isa, Jesus, Jesus (hay-SOOS), who taught us to pray, Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.
Amen.

April Rayn Musician Photoshoot
Lots of fun today shooting photos for April. She is playing live on air in San Antonio this weekend and needed some fresh photos for her press kit. Also snagged some great photos of Myra and the kids. April is an amazing songwriter, guitar player and singer. Her grandfather played with Willy Nelson back in the day. She learned most of what she knows from her Dad or “Glenn Boogie”.
Link to her site and music online coming soon. Check back for details. For now, check out some of the other photos:
Chapel Live – An Interactive Experience
Heard Chapel Live was amazing last weekend. I am looking forward to checking it out this Sunday night. We will probably go to the 5:30pm service. We have not attended services in the Chapel yet – should be fun. I think we will have to move our small group meeting time around, we usually meet Sunday nights as well. We will see. College age to thirty-somethings will probably love the service.
I’ll post some photos of the service after this weekend.
