The grand finale of this year’s Vacation Bible School ended with a spin-off of YMCA called, YVBS, or why VBS? I ran a crew of guys that includes sound, lighting, effects, and the videographer.

God, I just want to thank you for what you’ve done for me lately. Thank you for the people you placed in my life to provide for me and my family. Thank you for my grandparents for taking us in when our furnace broke. Thank you for the neighbors who helped change my tire or who shoveled our snow. Thank you for people in the church for providing food and money for us. Thank you for providing the unexpected money during unexpected circumstances. Thank you for strength, hope, and Your grace.

Well, the CD has been out for about 3 months and I just found it. I have to say I can’t wait to get it. You can listen to some “snippets” on his website KJ52.com. I’m gonna try to figure out how to post a song on here from him so you can check it out.

This is a poster I saw when I was a kid. My grandma used to buy me subscriptions to a magazine called Breakaway from Focus on the Family. I eventually lost the poster growing up but always had this image in my mind when hearing Matthew 7. So When I was about 18 I got a pointless tatoo and would now like to cover it with this. This is something I know I would never cover. Here is the verse, Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Here is a transcript of the email between me and Focus on the Family:
Doug: My grandma sent me your magazine for many years when I lived away from her with my dad. During those years there was a poster in the center that was about Matthew 7:13-14 about the narrow gate and wide gate. It was awesome and I would do anything to get another copy. What can I do? Thanks!
Jamie Quinn (Breakaway): Thank you for your e-mail to Breakaway Douglas. We’re pleased to hear that you liked the poster we had in our magazine back in March, 1992. In response to your request, we’re sorry to tell you that we are completely out of this issue of the magazine, and have no more posters available. We hope you’re not too disappointed. If you’re still interested in seeing if you can find this picture, you might consider visiting the artist’s website: http://www.mylespinkney.com/. The name of the drawing on the poster was “Enter Through the Narrow Gate.” Perhaps you could send Myles (the artist) an email and ask if he might have this item available. We hope you’ll find this suggestion helpful. Again, thank you for writing. God bless you, Douglas.

Operation Christmas Child is basically a great way to send presents to children overseas. My wife and I participated this year at work and sent 2 shoe boxes full of small gifts. Here is an email from the famliy including pictures!
Hello from Almaty!
Hi, Douglas and Brooke
My name is Olga. My husband Askar and I are glad to hear from you and we would like to thank you for presents. Our kids were so happy to receive the box you sent.
Our children, a boy is 9 and a girl is 3, are only learning to be good kids. Their names are Adil and Anelya. In fact, we have recently learnt the God and we see how our lives have changed since the time God touched our hearts. We try to read the Bible (we even have got one in English) but still we have so many questions.
We live in the city surrounded by the mountains. It is a beautiful place. We like to spend our free time in the nature. In winter we skate in our famous skating rink Medeu (you might have heard of it). In summer we spend time near the river.
We go to the church on Sundays.
Our life has not been easy but we believe in God and it is getting better and better every day and we are glad there are people who realize the same.
We see that God loves us and God prepared everything for us. We see that our children also realize that.
We would like to thank you once again for your kindness in the name of God.
We hope to hear from you again soon.
Thanks from our kids too.
we are sending you some early pictures. Adil is dressed in a jeans jacket and our Anelya is with a stripped hat on her head.
we will send some more pictures to you next time
