Here again.

What is your favorite moment with Jesus?

I am starting to get a long list of these. I have been coming to experience him in a way that I didn't think was possible while still walking this earth. I thought that people in the bible could really hear him but that I couldn't experience him that way. With that said, one of the first special moments was when I was in a Saturday night church service. I was crying for him to prove to me that He was near. He did. He sang to me and talked to me. Told me that He just wanted to dance with me. It was just the beginning!

Who are five people you respect and why?

1) My father. I respect him because he is who he is. I am called to resepct him and what joy there is in that. He is a treasured love.

2) My mother. How could I respect my father without rescepting my mother? She has nurtured me and cared for me. She is indeed worthy of my respect.

3) Debbie. What can I say? I am the younger sibling. I think that's just the way it works. I have tried to follow in her steps all my life.

.... I don't know how to go on. There are many teachers and friends that I respect and that the Lord has used in my life but these three people are the people that God chose to remain with me for my whole life. They are my traveling companions rain or shine. Their bond to me cannot be broken!

What is my dream vacation?

My, my! I don't even know how to answer that question. Sometimes it depends on what I am going through. I always love the beach though. Sitting on the sand watching the waves crash leaves me in awe. I sense the power of God there and the wonder of the fact that He cares for me and romances me. So, it would be the beach. Oh, yes and I would learn how to surf. Does the dream vacation include a supernatural ability to surf really well without any practice?:) Yep, being able to sit on the beach and bask in the beauty of God while being able to later go out and surf like a pro, that would be my dream!:)

What is your favorite moment with Jesus? (Nat)
If I told you I would have to kill you :)

Who are 5 people you respect and what makes you respect them? (Linds)
These are not in order I'm just going to write them as they come to mind.
1) Jim Ellliot - because he gave his all for Jesus. He didn't just say Jesus was his overtaking he lived like it was true. "He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot loose." He lived for something greater than himself.

2) Beth Moore - I respect her passion for the truth and seeing it change people's lives. She says it like it is. I believe she is one of the most influencing Christian women of our days.

3) Erik Carlson - He's by boss and I think he's about as good as they get. I respect his love for his wife and family. I also respect his servant leadership.

4) NTBI teachers - I could list them individually but then that would take up more space. Ernie Richards, Noel Mayes, Thomas Freeman...my all time favorites. I respect their knowledge of the Word and ability to make others want to be passionate about it too.

5) Last but not least...My Dad - I love the way people are changed by just being around him and he doesn't even realize it's happening.

What is your dream vacation and why? (me)
It would be impossible to pick just one. I think Door County with the two of you should definitely be at the top of the list. Every good vacation should include mountains, pine trees, a good book, good friends (you two), and outdoor fun (hiking for example). Either that or a trip to a foreign country, also with good friends. Somewhere where you can experience the culture and flavor of the country, not a tourist spot. Travel, travel, travel...Can you ever get enouph?
