Thoughts from the road

At soulfest this weekend up in New Hampshire... ( www.thesoulfest.com ) great people with a great heart and vision for how we can bring the gospel to the world.
Watching 10th avenue north from sidestage. It's raining outside. Mike (the lead singer) is a gifted preacher who also happens to write great songs and sing the Heavens out of them. Say a prayer for them; their van got hit by a large truck. Boo.

Backstage at steubenville west, listening to my good friend mark hart speak. He's very funny. If you're reading this tonight, pray for the 1800 kids here- that God would touch their lives in a real way.

living in the future....

i'm in Sydney, Australia, which is on average, about 15 hours ahead of the time zone i'm used to living in. Rather strange, but true. We've been here a week today, and i have to say, i really like it. Australia is a beautiful continent/country, which is indicative of the hearts of the people here. The blogging has been hard to do. However, i am a little hopeful that i was post somewhat of a retrospective after the fact. that would be quite nice.
Last night we played at Bondi Beach, which is a pretty iconic landmark in Sydney. At one point during the middle of our set, 4 Franciscan Friars (OFM) got on stage and were pretty much there for the rest of the set, dancing about. It was a fun night, even though my voice got a little toasty at the end. We'll be alright :) today we're getting ready for the Life Teen event at the Sydney Entertainment Center, which holds about 9000 people from what i've heard. It should be a great night of worship.
