Jamaica, Music, and the Gospel


Our friend Dave Webb has been lead to Jamaica this week. He left on Saturday with plans to pour some love onto them and share the gospel with them. In the months prior to this, Dave designed T-shirts and sold them, received unexpected donations, and plugged this trip to pay for it and now he is there being used by God for the greater good of the Kingdom.






We have had minimal updates from him and that's good because the Lord has other plans for him than a vacation spent in Jamaica taking pictures. It's real Kingdom work and the rubber meets the road on this one. Please continue to pray for him and his team as they serve the people of Jamaica in any way they can. Praise God for the Lord being ahead of them and pray that he reveals opportunities to lead someone to Christ every day. Pray that the love of God is seen in Dave and that in his moments of reflection, he finds reason to praise our King.





Also, there are additional places that God is leading us. We would like for you to pray for us as we look to Maine and Cleveland. We don't know what will happen there. We don't know who we will meet. All we know is that we have been invited up there and that God is ahead of us. Matt will be continuing to work on original compositions and blogging. We have begun tithing into this thing. We have been developing a mission statement we pray is fully inspired by the Holy Spirit. We will be sharing that when Dave comes back from his missionary journey. Matt's wife, Stacy, has asked to be a part of this with her singing, dancing, and painting. We will be continuing discussion about the vision God has placed on our hearts.

Thanks for reading and for all of your prayers. We need them.

Keeping Hope

Hey guys, We hope this entry finds you in a posture of hope. As President Snow put it in The Hunger Games series, "Hope is the only thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective. A lot of hope is dangerous." What he knew, and what we all felt when we heard him speak those words, was the truth of this claim. How many stories and heroes do you think would have been ignored by history if they gave up hope of the very best outcome from a really crappy situation? They hoped for something much, much better than what they were experiencing. I can imagine many of them hoping for a paradigm shift in how their people were treated, freedom. Many of them hoped for prosperity amid poverty. Many of them hoped that for a great evil to cease and many more simply hoped that the sickness would pass, so they held on. Many of us may feel like we're living that last one out. That's because we are. Television and cinema always kept the idea of a pandemic in the back of ou...

Training our hearts.

David and I are on this journey of serving within the ranks of The Salvation Army. We are learning so much. We have a lot on our hearts, and that includes you. We will be sharing those things through different mediums. We've been gathering our inspiration and our resources, drawing near to God and now we are ready to spill the beans. During my schooling/training, I've been given assignments that are creative expressions of what we are learning or developing. This is good timing as it's the first year that cadets in this school are expected to complete creative assignments, and I'm thriving in it. It excites me. I've  been able to let go of all internal inhibitions and excuses for not letting my light shine before men for the Glory of God. So having these opportunities for creative expression is like a bonus power you find in a game, right? Think mushrooms in Mario. It's very cool. He has given me talents and gifts and a soul and a song. Now we sing. I'm lo...

Happy Mother's Day @~%~~~~

Happy Mother's Day! Mothers are a pretty important thing. Without them none of us would be here. Feel free to laugh after that previous sentence. It's true. Not only would we not be here, but there are virtues, and character, passions, ethics, manners, romantic gestures, compassionate moments, merciful, graceful, and gentle tones we would not possess as people without the influence of a mother. A mother is simply a non-negotiable, integral part of the most healthy family. If you have a mother who has loved you, shared with you, cherished your successes and mourned with you through the failures then go ahead and hug that woman . Tell her that you appreciate her love and that you thank God for her. Thank her for sticking with Dad through thick and thin, exemplifying covenant and hard work in relationships so that you could see it for yourself. If you were raised by a single mom than give that woman a couple extra seconds of good squeeze. The absence of a father is just as ...
