The “Other” Building

Even though it was a brand new day for all of us as we worshiped in the ginormous building, it was a first for our children as well. That’s right, the kids took over the former worship building and wasted no time up-fitting it for our brand new, Kid’s Cove! They have been chomping at […]

The Soft Opening

Terms like this amuse me. What is the difference between an opening day, soft opening and grand opening? Apparently, Opening day is old school. A soft opening is basically a time to work the bugs out before you shoot the wad and invite the entire known world to your event. That would be the Grand […]

Thanks For Being Our Guest!

Last night we had our volunteer training based on Disney’s, “Be Our Guest” approach. It was awesome! I’m seriously thinking of implementing this into everything we do in order to make our guests feel more at home. Why not? Disney should absolutely not be the happiest place on earth.

The Wilderness of Sin — Part 1

I’m still going through Exodus in my Quiet time these days—it’s a long book. Yesterday I came across what I thought was a very strange name for an “area.” The place the Israelites were encamped was referred to as, “The Wilderness of Sin.”   Here’s the passage I’m referring to:     On the fifteenth […]

Be Our Guest! Be our Guest!

Can you believe it? There’s no Saturday service this weekend. What will we do with ourselves?! The Saturday evening service has become such a part of our lives over at the Singleton home that we had to recreate an artificial weekend out of Fridays and half of Saturday just to maintain some semblance of normalcy. On […]
