It’s after 10:15 PM EDT as I begin this first and final blog entry for this 3RD Wednesday of March, and I’m so late in posting tonight because I just got home from Life Group at J.T.’s and Anne’s home. I was the first to arrive, but I was not the last to depart.
It was another fun 3 hours at their home, and this Wednesday night’s Life Group was a very special one. It was my one-year anniversary. Exactly 52 weeks ago tonight I stepped in to J.T.’s and Anne’s home for the very first time after several weeks of pleading and prodding by Anne to join her Life Group. That night I took a giant leap on this fantastic journey by meeting for faith and fellowship with a small portion of my Sunday morning church family during the middle of the week. That night I also met J.T. for the first time ever. I had briefly heard of him, but I didn’t know what he looked like. I must say that he intimidated me at first over the telephone when I called to get directions to their home, but once I finally met him in person all was forgiven. 🙂
And so Year 2 with my Life Group begins next Wednesday night. I’m looking forward to it. I love spending quality time every week with everyone in our constantly evolving small church family. The faces continue to change, but the love is always there. We are certainly loving each other and most definitely God with reckless abandon !
And that’s my ‘Bedtime Story’ for tonight. Be sure to catch the blog tomorrow afternoon for the ‘Thursday Night Internet Hoax Hall-Of-Shame’. I’ll show you a way that all of us can get together and sock it to the man and get gas prices down from $3.30 per gallon to $1.30 per gallon. At least that’s what a recent chain-letter that was circulating all over Homestead Air Reserve Base was suggesting !
Until then remember this:
You’ll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent.
Good Night Everyone ! Good Night Gracie !

good night John Boy…
I can relate to your 1yr anniv..
I walked into LPC (theater) two weeks before Easter last year (2007). I had gotten a postcard in the mail and decided to pull up the LPC website..
The 1st person to greet me in the lobby was Anne Johnson…The 1st person to greet me in service was
Arlene Rance…So for me its been
a Awesome year for me.
Being saved, forming a new relationship with God, meeting my new family and serving God with reckless abandon! I prayed for change & guidance only weeks before I got the postcard!
Hallelujah!
Congradulations Chris and Kristina!!!! I cant believe thats all its been…seems like you have always been a member of the family. Isnt OUR GOD awesome!!! I love our life-group and LPC too we can be real and share our struggles and our victories. THE WORD says confess one to another and it feels great to have that kind of trust in our group…and it is still growing. Although that reckless abandon with my personality can be dangerous,LOL. Love you guys.
Chris and Kristina,
It really does feel like you guys have been here forever…like I’ve known you guys forever. The stories of what God has done in your lives never get old.
