Austin, TX day one.


Tonight I'm blogging from the outskirts of Austin, Tx. We flew here this afternoon for a couple days of rest, relaxtion, and to visit old friends and new friends. Craig Miller, from Global Impact, picked us up from the airport and drove us to Round Rock on the northside. There we hooked up with his wife and kids and enjoyed some Texas BBQ ala Rudy's Country Store (imagine a Texas Roadhouse without the peanuts and or a Cracker Barrell with a gas station). And the brisket was excellent along with the cream corn, beans, and banana pudding. I don't think I'll need to eat for another 24 hours....


The kids are spending the weekend with a variety of friends (thanks to J&T, the Carrs, and Catherine). We are enjoying the peace and quiet of the hotel room along with the blissful prospect of sleeping in past 6am. Its been a while since Janell and I have spent time in a nice hotel. Every once in awhile it is good to be pampered.

The McPassion


For those of you with a highspeed connection and an appreciation for satire, check out the McPassion.

The greatest story ever told
and a fast food giant unite
to deliver the tie-in of tie-ins.

But hurry, The McPassion is being served for a limited time only...

Also check out Christianity Today's interview with the film's director.
