Sundays......

Sundays for me are about Family and Church.

Today was especially good because I had one of those rare opportunities to spend some time with my only son.  My wife, my son and I went out to antelope island.  Neither of them are as fortunate as I that they get regular time outside.  The sun provides vitamin D, the air is great to breath and the openness is refreshing.  Especially on overcast, inversion filled winter days.  

The island had it's typical winter look.  It was beautiful.  But on this trip (the only one we have made together) we discovered some beautiful rock formations.  Looking even closer we found this stuff that looks like dead moss.  I have seen it before but not as brilliant and on such beautiful rock.  My camera moved in close and captured the "stuff" up close and personal.  

Discovery is all round us.  It is not only in our vision, our taste, and our smells.  It is in our relationships.  On Sunday my wife and I teach a gospel class about family relations.  When we were first asked to do this I felt like they were asking Caesar to teach humility.    A joke maybe? No they were serious.  Well it turns out that the class is for me and my family.  The people in front of us each week are the beneficiaries of their own decision to attend and participate.  The curriculum is well written and is sensitive to the needs of all individuals.   It has been said before that the person teaching usually gets the most out of the class.  Boy is that true here.  

A must see movie?  Fireproof   To find out more about it look here.   It's a great movie about rebuilding a marriage.  It has suggestions about God and Christ in peoples lives.  Produced by sony pictures but backed by Sherwood Church a baptist church of which I am not affiliated.  But in my opinion they did a bang up job on this movie.
