Manic Monday Minute is a serious mind-dump that will probably take you one minute to read. Here are some thoughts going through my head right now...
This is the Manic Monday Minute A literal mind-dump of everything thats happened in the last few days. Easter weekend was amazing. We had a great Crosswalk in Historic Yorktown. Saw a mass number of people come through for the spiritual experience. Our alternative worship experience on Saturday evening was also very moving. The creative elements were incredible - including a crown of thorns made of barb wire. The church was packed on Sunday for our Easter services. We had to add 12 rows of additional chairs (last I counted). Very encouraging to see so many people. Maybe they will decide to attend next week too. A friend of mine told his congregation (on Easter) last year "you know we are open every Sunday." I thought that was funny. I said "Happy Easters" from the stage on Sunday. I couldn't resist. People were laughing out loud on that one. We had great services - with lots of creative elements. Loved hearing the testimony of one of the ladies in our church whose husband was killed in Iraq. Her story is a message of Hope (in spite of great tragedy) and she told what Christ means to her. Very moving to close our Hope series. I was invited to a couple of egg hunts but didn't get to attend any. Maybe next year. My pastor and I had a great idea that we should hijack the helicopter doing one of the egg drops in the area and get them to drop some eggs on our campus. Sound like a plan? An old lady rear-ended me earlier this afternoon. I was on the way to my pastor's home and was stopped at a traffic light. BAM! She hit me. No damage to my car or my body - thankfully. I twittered the experience when it happened. Thanks for everyone who replied back to see if I was okay. Again, I'm very thankful nothing serious happened. Was able to get a ticket to see Jennifer Hudson in concert on Sunday evening. Enjoyed seeing her in concert. She covered a few songs - including one by Whitney Houston and another by Aretha Franklin. Girl can sing - just sayin. She also supposed to perform on American Idol this Wednesday. By the way, I'm expecting Anoop Desai to go home this week. My clock is saying its 3.00AM. I am a night owl but that is definitely wrong. My alma mater contacted me about a new website they are launching. They are planning to list alumni bloggers - including yours truly. I can't wait to see who else is blogging out there. Had a late dinner tonight. I'm stuffed! Congrats to my friend, Laura Story, who has been nominated for 4 GMA Dove Awards - including Female Vocalist of the Year! Laura, I hope you win... You've got my vote. Reading an advanced copy of Jud Wilhite's new book "Eyes Wide Open." Can't wait to blog about it. Had on a polo shirt (with collar of course) on Sunday. Chuck thanked me for dressing up for Easter. Ha. Hoping to catch my friend Tim interviewing Marko this week on his podcast. I'm typically busy and miss his show. Have a friend (from Connecticut) visiting me this week. Gonna be fun. Some students showed up at my door earlier and hung out for a few. Thats always cool. Crawford out.
