Tomorrow is a big Sunday for Ridgeview. We are ending our Halftime series with a huge party. We have a guest speaker (who just so happens to be my good friend Paul Kevetter), a guest worship leader, and everyone will be sitting at round tables, not in rows of chairs. After the service, we will all share a meal together. Tomorrow is important in another way as well – we have 5 people getting baptized! These 5 people are different in so many ways, yet they have all chosen to start out on the same journey, and publicly declare their faith. I get so excited when I see people get baptized. I feel like I am watching my favorite team win the World Series, times two!

I just got back from our student ministry’s fall trip. We went to Camp Livingstones in Englewood, Tennessee. This camp has been around for 10 years, and was basically built entirely by students. We had a good time. We talked about some serious issues like being honest and not living a fake Christian life. I am anxious to see if it sticks now that we are back home. I took my camera for a ride on the zip-line, so I will definitely post that footage when I have time. And the food, well it was hands down the best camp food I have ever had at a camp. Ever.

Filet mignon with a red wine/portabello mushroom sauce and roasted asparagus over a bed of egg noodles. Yum.
