Here is a must-read from Breakpoint, posted yesterday! I loved it. A quote from it:
By contrast, as G. K. Chesterton explained about the timeless quality of God’s truth: “The Church always seems to be behind the times, when it is really beyond the times; it is waiting till the last fad shall have seen its last summer.”

Well, goodbye to Germany!
We are home after a long day of traveling. At least I think we are home. Jet lag can make things seem quite surreal. I don’t know how our kids adjust so well – they aren’t even acting tired (it is 4 am in Berlin, whereas it is 8 pm here).
We had a wonderful time in Germany, exploring and having adventures with our Lord. I will be posting more through this week on our experiences and what we’ve taken away from it, as well as what we hope to apply to our lives here on out.
I don’t want to leave y’all hanging about Calling All Nations. The event was powerful and joyous. I’ve never seen 20,000+ worshipping Jesus before, and let me tell you that is is a spectacular sight. God moved in many ways that day, and we are excited to hear reports about it both in our lives and in heaven! Photobucket helped me put together a few photos of CAN, so you can see for yourselves. Unfortunately, it was one of those things where you “had to be there”. Bless you Noel Richards, and all of the many people who helped bring this to fruition.
Note: I’ve posted more about CAN on the main blog since this date, so I invite you to check it out. Also, I’d love to have comments from people who were there! Bless you all, and thanks again to Noel for posting this link!

Just a quick post tonight. Some of our group have the privelege of singning in an international choir with Brian Doerksen for a couple of songs. I didn’t realize I would be singing in German as well. If I can’t get “Heilger Gott” then I may be mouthing “watermelon” in those parts.
Anyway, just the practice was so exciting. There was a group called Psalm Drummers who were practicing, as dancers with flags of the countries paraded around the track. Right away I had tears in my eyes. If anything I’ve ever been a part of has the potential to “rend the heavens”, this is it. I am SO excited.
Bless you all, and I hope to post after tommorrow! Thanks for praying! We want to bring home some blessing from here to everyone as well!
