HAPPY B-DAY POP!

I would like to wish my father a very Happy Birthday.  His giving and humorous spirit, reminds us to show love and enjoy life.  Thank you for being you!

LET THERE BE LIGHTS...MERRY CHRISTMAS!

T'was the night before Christmas, riding all through the town, no darkness in sight, just lights were renown...
The lights on Christmas Eve inspired me to write a tiny poem... the CHRISTmas Spirit will bring out gifts you never knew you had.
Merry CHRISTmas to all, and to all a goodnight!

MERRY CHRISTMAS! CURRENTLY BUMPING...

NOW THATS REAL!

MISSIONAIRE

I want to take the time recognize my brother in Christ, Isaiah Allen, for his faithfulness and boldness in spreading the gospel.  This weekend, Isaiah and a few of his ministry buddies, traveled to Mexico to provide service to 150 children at an orphanage.  They came bearing gifts, smiles, and even freestyles.  These young men have been doing some remarkable things in Jesus' name and giving God all of the glory. God has extensive plans for Isaiah and his boys, and this experience adds more fuel to the fire that burns for our Savior.

"RELIGION THAT IS PURE AND UNDEFILED BEFORE GOD, THE FATHER, IS THIS: TO VISIT ORPHANS AND WIDOWS IN THEIR AFFLICTIONS, AND TO KEEP ONESELF UNSTAINED FROM THE WORLD." -JAMES 1:27 ESV 

THE BIG FIVE-0

 What an awesome celebration for such an awesome person.  We wanted to do it right for my mothers 50th, but the process wasn't easy.  Not only is it difficult to plan a surprise party for such a sharp individual, but the fact that she wanted a party and we spent weeks trying to convince her how a party wasn't feasible due to the upcoming birth of her granddaughter.  See my mother never had a birthday party, and on top of that she does so much for others and is rarely on the receiving end.  It was mandatory that we bless her as she blesses many.
Not only was the game plan executed,  she had no clue and was completed shocked.  The glowing aura and ear to ear smile the entire night was priceless. The highlight of the night was witnessing the greatness of our Lord and Savior utilizing my mother to reach and uplift others. The testimonies shared by family and friends were deep! Their wasn't a dry eye in the building.  The most beautiful thing about it was hearing God attached to everyone's speech, so it was fitting for her cake to be the word of God.    

HOLLYWOOD

My former teammate and roommate, Jayme Miller, was featured in the Li Ning basketball commercial. You may remember Jay and I on an episode of Holland Cribs. I guess the team figured the California boys would be a good fit...



Li Ning is a big time athletic and entertainment company out in Hong Kong. Their goal is to become a household name here in the States, and they plan on reaching that goal through basketball. As sponsors of the 2010 #2 NBA Draft pick Evan Turner, here is the premier of Li Ning: My Dear enemies.

A SHOWER OF BLESSINGS

 With the birth of our first child right around the corner, our family and friends orchestrated a shower in honor of our little Sarai Ruth.  We were abundantly blessed with many wonderful gifts, you name it she got it.  All praises and glory be to God for our wonderful family who has showered us with love. 
I have to admit that the baby shower was the first time it really began hit me... I am about to be someones pops!  I am responsible for the well-being and rearing of this individual...wow!  Proverbs says to train up a child in the way that he SHOULD go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.  Sounds so simple but yet complex.  When my wife and I got married under God, we also made a vow to give our children back to the Him once we became parents.  A year and a half later here we are.  Chosen to lead and train our daughter.  Willing to lay down our lives to make her eternally glad in God and not in things of this world.  As we turn the corner and prepare to embark on this assignment, I pray the Lord will equip us with wisdom and knowledge to see His word from His perspective so that we can train the right way.
