Very fun times including: seeing my niece again AND seeing my second cousin for the first time. He is a CUTIE~ and seeing “the final season” about the Norway, IA baseball team of ’91 in theaters. Never mind that it wasn’t a super good movie — my friend Jessica Wilson’s dad was the producer and it wasn’t bad…it was actually on the good side, so I was pleased. ANd it had some great seaonory shots of Iowa……showing that it realliyi is a beautiful place.  I (heart) iowa!

I went to church today and the sermon really made me think about the gospel. Especially how we present it to others. It isn’t what I grew up with – where you can pray a prayer at 6, never live it, but you are in. What are the signs of faith. Are you trusting in Christ alone for the forgiveness of sins and the ressurection from the dead? Is Jesus your most important treasure? are you developing spiritual gifts? these questions are not about works: because if you have them, they are from God, not works….so the answer if you don’t have them isn’t to try harder. I’m learning more and more what it means to love the gospel.

It’ll be fun…….I’ll get to write stuff into the internet, even though probably no one will read it ’cause I’m not really going to tell people about it. Here we go.
