Tooth & Nail Day

Saw Children 18:3 rock the house today at 12:30. Also saw new band Inhale/Exhale, which were excellent. Am looking forward to seeing Project 86, mewithoutYou, Dead Poetic, and Showbread. My girls are both staying up way past their bedtime to watch Hawk Nelson tonight.

The weather's great, people are here, the sound systems are cranking. It's all a good fest, so far.

Praise God that the Space Shuttle Discovery had a successful liftoff today.

I like to think globally and act locally. The body of Christ is larger than my local church, my city, my state, and my country. The world is the Lord's and all the fullness thereof. I see beyond our borders with as much love and understanding that God makes me capable of (which comes from a limitless supply). Nevertheless, I agree with Bono that America is a great country and a great idea. I am blessed to be from this country and am thankful to be one of its citizens. Happy Independance Day!
