Books
Favorites? The NIV study Bible and books about the bible. It's solid truth for a messed up life. Heaven, by Randy Alcorn, Evidence that demands a verdict, by Josh McDowell, Phillip Yancey, C.S. Lewis, and lots of others
Heroes
Jesus, Paul, the biblical Prophets and martyrs through the centuries that gave their lives for God when required of them,... My Dad, the late John Silvers, My wife, and any Disciples of Christ, especially when it comes time to stand up for Him and they do! We can't be ashamed.
I'm married to the most wonderful, beautiful lady in the world, and dad to three great teenagers. I'm also an Assistive Technology Specialist for the local school system by day, but most importantly, I'm a Christian, on my way to heaven by God's mercy, trying to learn and show as many as I can the way Jesus. I feel like the time we have left on this earth is short and Christians need to take our calling to make disciples seriously. Below are two videos I put together. The first one is made with a few pictures from our youth retreat in Dec. 2007, and the other one is a video using clips from the movie Passion to show how Isaiah 53 was fulfilled in such detail with Jesus' crucifixion. It's a testimony to how God spoke prophetically and soooo accurately to Isaiah, some 700 years before Jesus was born! Please watch it, and thanks in advance for leaving a comment and letting me know you stopped by! :-)
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone interested in discovering the meaning to life Church Youth Group Friends - 2006 & 2007
Well you know, you can NEVER tell about me, about what I'll do, what I'll say, you know. Sometimes I put my big foot in my mouth and sometimes I am at a loss for words. Imagine that! Glad to see you and Kenya. MySpace is an awesome tool to meet people, see old friends and I really keep in touch with my little friends from Woodstock and people I work with. Have you ever tried Facebook? I have one of those as well. Have a good one!
YOU SAY GOD SAYS BIBLE VERSES You say: "It's impossible" God says: All things are possible (Luke 18:27) You say: "I'm too tired" God says: I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28-30) You say: "Nobody really loves me" God says: I love you (John 3:16 & John 3:34) You say: "I can't go on" God says: My grace is sufficient (II Corinthians 12:9 & Psalm 91:15) You say: "I can't figure things out" God says: I will direct your steps (Proverbs 3:5-6) You say: "I can't do it" God says: You can do all things (Philippians 4:13) You say: "I'm not able" God says: I am able (II Corinthians 9:8) You say: "It's not worth it" God says: It will be worth it (Roman 8:28) You say: "I can't forgive myself" God says: I Forgive you (I John 1:9 & Romans 8:1) You say: "I can't manage" God says: I will supply all your needs (Philippians 4:19) You say: "I'm afraid" God says: I have not given you a spirit of fear (II Timothy 1:7) You say: "I'm always worried and frustrated" God says: Cast all your cares on ME (I Peter 5:7) You say: "I don't have enough faith" God says: I've given everyone a measure of faith (Romans 12:3) You say: "I'm not smart enough" God says: I give you wisdom (I Corinthians 1:30) You say: "I feel all alone" God says: I will never leave you or forsake you (Hebrews 13:5) PASS THIS ON.

Remember God loves you. So put a smile on your face and have a pleasant a day. The outcome of your day depends on the attitude with which you greet it. There is beauty in everything we see, just look for it; it's there. :)
Hey just wanted to say thanks for coming it meant a lot.. Im sure he would have loved it cause we used to talk about those days...what a blast.. but thanks again!
i feel so purdy in that photo. it's me at my best. my husband must be so proud of his wife. duh hee. yeah, that's my chewin' backer. i eat it with a spoon. i'm hardcore
Hey joey! Yeah well I've honestly always wanted one but I've always struggled with the idea of whether it's really a sin or not. But Tanner told me to stop thinking about it and just get one already...hmmmm....Hope to see you all sometime soon. Life's a 'little bit' easier now that the boys are older. a little.
just to think, God gave his son for a world that doesn't even know. He allowed his son to suffer and die for our sins, when in all reality we live clueless as to the pain he really did go through. God loves this world and his children enough to give his only son, when this world lives in sin and distraught. It aggrivates me to death to know that Jesus suffered THAT much for us. and there are only some that care enough to live for him. The rest live their lives not caring how they live, i don't know weather its that they just don't know or don't care. but they should, they shouldn't take the greatest sacrifice for granted.
This World is so clueless as to what really happened, they forget just how much God loves them. They forget everything Jesus went through and just for them to live. Yet NOONE will open their eyes. this world is completely ASLEEP!
