My Favorite Time of Year

This is truly my favorite time of year as we celebrate the resurrection of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The past few weeks leading up to Easter have been busy but great. Our church put on the dramatic Easter musical, Jesus Son of God last weekend. It was absolutely great. My wife and I both got involved in this (as our first and maybe last acting experience) and were blessed by all the great people involved in the show. I want to give a special notice to Martha Thompson, the drama director. Just meeting and getting to know her made the experience great.

For those who haven't been involved in something like this, you may never know how much work and effort goes into it. The choir and orchestra (led by Robbin and Laura) were fabulous. I even have to admit that THE TALENT (as Todd called the readers) did a great job! Of course, don't forget the technical team. It's amazing how much work is involved in timing of lights, cameras, sound, etc. Lastly, I want to thank all the members of the drama team for the laughs and their friendship. Although I knew many of those involved, I met some new great people like Darin, Mark, Mark and Joey).

The best part of the whole thing was that I heard the performances resulted in 5 people coming to salvation through Jesus Christ and 3 who recommited their lives to Him. Now, that makes it all worthwhile!

I am really looking forward to the Easter message this Sunday and pray that the Dome is overflowing with people.

Well, it's late and us old people need our sleep so I better end this now. Good night.

I guess if the readers are the talent than I'd have to admit that you guys on stage must be the pretty faces.

Thanks Bekah, the same to you!

Todd, I have to admit, I've never been called a "pretty face" before.
