Thank You
November 19th, 2005 | You might remember about a week and a half ago Shawn and I went to his home church in Onalaska, Wisconsin to lead worship, speak, and play a few of my songs with the middle and high school groups.
Well, yesterday I receieved a very nice “thank you” card in the mail with a $15 Barnes & Noble gift card. I spoke a lot about the importance of reading and how I recently sold my PlayStation2 so that I might spend my time more wisely (i.e. reading). The whole inside and back of the card was filled with kind and genuine comments - it was wonderful. I even pinned it up on my wall underneath my Matt Wertz poster.
To the parents and students of Onalaska high school and middle school SOAR, I say thank you. I know at least one of the high school students has found this website (she left a comment) so maybe one or two other people will see this as well. I had a blast and I would love to come back sometime in the near future.
You might like to know that with the gift card I ordered a new Bible and G.K. Chesterton’s Orthodoxy, which has deeply influenced Brian McLaren and is also #6 on Christianity Today’s list of the top 100 Christian Books of the last century.
