Three recent events really helped to lift my spirit: 1) last Saturday we had the privilege of attending the Psalm Festival at the Calvin College chapel. What a rich experience as we heard the Psalms performed in a variety of styles, in a variety of a languages, by a variety of groups, and were able to participate also in word and song. The service began at 5:00 and continued past midnight until all the Psalms were performed! I was encouraged by the number of students there. 2) last Sunday a number of area churches participated in a Hymn Festival at a local downtown church. It was great to sing in a choir with a variety of people from other churches and experience a glimpse of what is to come – singing with a great combined voice and a variety of instruments to our Creator and Sustainer! 3) Last night we watched a great movie called The Chorus that was very well done and demonstrated grace and the difference that one person can make in the lives of others. I highly recommend it – inspirational!

So, I noticed the "blog" address at the bottom of your last e-mail... I was excited to see "Psalm Festival" on your site!!! Thanks for reading my paper...I appreciate the comments. Something tells me it's not the last time we'll have a "conversation" on such a topic. I WISH more people would get excited about it. "Church" is pretty much all my best friends and I talk about... (unfortunately they're spread across the country [and Canada] maybe we'll see each other again at seminary) Anyway, you're probably catching on to my love for parentheses...so I should probably stop before they get annoying. Besides, it's late and I still have a LOT of Greek to do.

PS-let me know when/if you get this... it'd be a shame for you to miss a post on your site.
I think one of your daughters said once that you were starved for male-football company. I'm an NFL guy myself, but let me know if you're interested in "wasting" a Sunday afternoon sometime I haven't really sat down for a day of football yet this year. It's hard in a dorm (should probably ask Julie to make sure she wouldn't think it was weird... I am pretty weird like that... if it "works" I should probably bring Steph home too-eh?).
Dan,
Had a great time watching Julie dance last night. Remembered to check for your blogger page. I put a link to it on Beck's home page so she can check it periodically.
