It was three weeks since I had been in DL, one weekend off for Christmas, then out of town one. It felt good to get back in there. Kevin, Monica and Tim did a great job small grouping. Our numbers were into the 30's again, so I was small grouping as well. Notice I didn't say I did a great job leading my small group. Really, I am much better utilized when I do mundane tasks, but I didn't have much of a choice. At least I didn't have to wear a hardhat. Keith's looked about right, Kevin looked like a gearhead, and Tim's...Tim's head is ginormous (or the hat was too small). Monica, I missed your photo op, but may I say you looked great in your hat.

From this month on, I am betting our numbers will steadily grow. With the exception of this coming weekend, we have four of us scheduled each night in January. That is OK until we start having over 40 kids. Do any of you know any former Wednesday nighters who might want to serve on Saturdays? We really need some help. Really. Direct any people you think might want to join us to Jeannine. Guilt them if you have to...no, don't do that, that would be wrong...I guess it would be better to just turn kids away.

Keith kicked off the month with the new virtue Resourcefulness, right after Kevin kicked off the new year with a little kickball action.

I know there used to be a rule about balls in the factory, but the Nerf people totalled screwed up this ball. It is so porous that it hardly gets lift and it doesn't have enough mass to fly anywhere near the tech equipment suspended above. The kids love it, so as long as Kevin keeps a close eye on the action and until Gary says to stop, well, let's just see what happens. Your small group info for this coming Saturday can be found by clicking here. The lesson is titled Ant Thinking and the Bible story is The Ant and the Sluggard, Prov. 6:6-11. Our memory verse remains Col. 3:23 (C323) "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men." The bottom line, and it is a good one, work hard even when no one's watching. If you missed Cal's mainstage message last weekend click here.

No one ever guessed the location of the lamp with the icicles picture from last week. It is the lamp located on the wall next to the door we all walk in to get to church each week. Sorry it was such a tough one. Here is an easy one, and I can't believe I am going to post it, but I owe it to my new friend who lives in Mumbai, India. His name is Aneesh. If you click his name (and this comes with a warning, just like a lot of Youtube sites, you might not want to look for profanity, because you'll find it), it takes you to his Youtube page. Notice his number 1 favorite video on Youtube. This 15 sec. video (below) has been favorited one time (I assume it's Aneesh) and it has been rated once (5 stars, my guess is it was Aneesh as well). He posted a comment with a simple plea, hey wadz de name of the song? Sadly, I can't reply, because I have no idea. It just came on the radio when Josh and I were racing around in that incredible BMW Alpina B7 in July. The music moved me, I danced, and the rest is history. So, the contest is on again. What is the name of the song in this video and who sings it? (This is so painful)
