Headed To The Windy City!

Day 3 has begun! We have just left Sikeston and are now headed to Chicago! Yesterday was an incredible day in both Mtn. Home and Pocahontas! Eastside BC in Mtn. Home were incredible hosts to our group. We had the opportunity to sing 3 songs in both of their morning services. Afterwards they fed us pizza before we headed out. Thanks to Pastor Mike Shy and his staff for allowing us to come and be a part of their church! We then made a short 2 hour jaunt to FBC Pocahontas. My good friend Eric Moffett is the pastor there and is doing a GREAT job! Congratulations to he and his wife Sherrill on the arrival of their brand new baby girl, Madelynne! After a quick rehearsal and some family group time we were treated to an awesome Southern Baptist meal of fried chicken and mashed potatoes!! We then enjoyed an incredible time of worship with such a Spirit filled congregation!! God revealed Himself in a powerful way as truth was proclaimed. We then headed to Sikeston, MO to spend the night. We are now headed to Navy Pier in Chicago to spend some time exploring Chicago! Stay tuned!

GREAT FIRST DAY!!!

1st day of Choir Tour......SUCCESS. We made it through the hills of North Arkansas with only 1 student who did not fare so well with curvy roads! We arrived at FBC Yellville to a warm reception from Pastor Rick Pyron. After a quick sound check we changed into our uniforms, ate a quick dinner, and prepared ourselves for worship. Our Choir President Steven Rutherford shared thoughts from Ephesians 2 and encouraged us to understand the depths of what we are rejoicing over as we worship. Our time of worship was incredibly powerful as our students did an awesome job! After some great fellowship we went to the Yellville City Park and played and ate some hot dogs. We are up and at em this morning and about to head out to Eastside Baptist Church in Mtn. Home! Thanks for praying for us!

Almost to Yellville

We are on the road to Yellville!! Pray for us as we proclaim Jesus tonight during our worship experience. Robert and Louis are taking care of us as our bus drivers again this year. They have been our drivers for the past several years and always do a great job! Feel free to post comments and we will pass them along to folks!

Countdown to Choir Tour 2012

In less than 36 hours Choir Tour 2012 will be in full swing and we are excited about what will take place. This year will find us winding through the hills of North Arkansas to FBC Yellville, Eastside BC in Mtn. Home, FBC Pocahontas, and on to The Windy City of Chicago. We will end the week by spending a couple of days retreating in Michigan. Be praying for our students and adults who will make up the 108 folks who will be on tour. Pray for the Spirit to be at work in a powerful way as we proclaim the greatness of God. Check back here for updates throughout the tour! Blessings!

Evening With The Stars

Don't miss out on our 5th Annual Evening With The Stars THIS Sunday night, April 15th! It will all kick off at 7:00 PM in Selph Hall. We have some incredible 'stars' who will be visiting us! Adele/The Dixie Chicks/Josh Turner/Bobby Darin/Jimmy Buffett/The Civil Wars/Shania Twain and many more will be on stage this year! Tickets are only $5 and are available at the church or at the door! It will be a great time together! Invite some friends to come with you for a fun evening!

Theology Tuesdays

WOW! What an incredible year of waking up WAY TOO early, eating great breakfasts, and learning the truth of Scripture and why we believe what we believe. Honestly when God gave birth to this idea of Junior High and Senior High students coming to the church to eat breakfast at 630 AM and talking theology I expected it to be me and 3 students...which would have been great! To my amazement (and embarrassment over lack of faith) over 20 students remained faithful to coming and learning about sin, inerrancy of Scripture, the virgin birth, the church, the doctrine of God, eschatology, and so much more! What a great journey!

My prayer is that these guys and girls have had their minds filled with knowledge, but more importantly that their hearts will explode with affection for Jesus because of what they know about Him! Thanks to so many parents who brought breakfast, transported students, and encouraged them to come. I love my job!
