I'm a dedicated follower of Jesus Christ; a devoted husband to my beautiful wife Lisa; a loving father to my three amazing kids; and I am a contributing part of the most vibrant movement on the face of the earth: the Church of Jesus Christ.
thanx ! we're going for this october somewhere in your area, theres some pretty places there. so i guess i better get a move on it eh ?! how are you and lisa ? say hi to her for me.
Awe man! Good to see you too! Great seminar by the way. You speak quite well. Most worship leaders are brain-dead like me :) You've got something good going on. We'll have to sit down for a coffee next time you're in town. You're just in Grimsby right?
I soooo do wish that we could have hung out more when you were out... I must repent for my nonchalant responce to your heartfelt text. I know you really meant it and I crush your spirit through the evil of T9. Please let us continue to look gracefully upon eachother with smiles and giggles... awkward...
Anyways... update... I believe these are your words...

I'll look into the FB this week. I'm feeling kind-of Tapley about it..."

Bristol talked about you all day yesterday."
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:9-11
Matt Tapley,
My prayer for you is the same. May you continue to grow in the love of Christ and may HIS blessings ever be upon your life.

Tapley rocks so much, my buddy Joe and I use "Tapley" to describe feelings of joy. I often say, "I'm feeling so Tapley today"...maybe it'll catch on...meh, maybe not. Join Facebook Tapley! It needs YOU...even more than the army needs you...
Hey Matt,
Have you had any involvement with Passion? (Louie Giglio, Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman). They are thinking of coming to 2 Canadian cities for the Passion World Tour in 2008. I mentioned your name to Louie & the Passion team when I was at their leadership conference 2 weeks ago. I figured if you aren't already in contact with Louie then maybe I could give you some info on what they do and stuff. If you want to check out their site it's www.268generation.com Let me know.
Ironically the only way you can see your Facebook group is to start a Facebook account. It is all pretty sinister.... well there is one other way... you can go over to someone else's computer who has Facebook, say Bec, and ask her to show you the group through her account. It is up to 30 members. That's just glorious, don't you think?
Well, well, well... it took RS 4 weeks to join Facebook after starting an online campaign that saw dozens of wall posts and had a final membership of 88. The group was called Steve Osmond IS Facebook savvy.
Well, I just started a Matt Tapley IS Facebook savvy FB group, to encourage you to make the transition. Don't think of it as an either/or. It is a both/and. Too busy to bother? Hey once you get the basics down on FB, it practically runs itself and you can still check on your MS site every once in awhile.
I do this because I love you. The group has only been up for a couple of minutes and it already has 3 members. Feel the love?
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:11-13
Matt Tapley,
May God bless you as you seek the Lord with all of your heart.
Hey,
i just downloaded last weeks sermon you spoke at Lakemount and really enjoyed it, incredibly relavant to me right now cuase im trying to figure out church stuff and hearing that sermon opened my eyes to alot, so thanks for being so blunt and truthful :D
You had a birthday. Now I feel like a arse. When did this happen? How did this happen? How old are you now? What is the capital of Deleware? Why do question marks in some languages happen before the sentance?
Anyway. Happy Birthday, if you actually had one. Love you immensely!
just wanted to let you know I have never been so happy and so free as I am out here...and I still dont know how to thank You and Lisa for it all....I'll figure something out :p
Thanks for everything. Are you planning out coming out here again soon? I'd love for you to take a training hour on a thursday night when you're next in town....lemme know :)
