• Lots of glitches in the early worship, and glitches drive me freaking CRAZY.    C-R-A-Z-Y.
• Still had a good time with the early birds.  I remain VERY impressed with how that smaller crowd worships, laughs, and rocks.
• Overall attendance down a little.  Funny ROCK thing:  Some of our people go attend the normal “family” church with mama on Mothers Day.  And that is cool.
• Hope none of our folks got kicked out of respectable churches today. 
• Lots of our college people are headed home for the summer.  I miss them already.
• Ashley Frederick will spend part of the summer as a short-term missionary to Serbia.  Pray for her.  (And she has not quite raised all the money she needs.)  Hint, hint.
• HINT, HINT.  (Hollah if you wanna help)
• Some of our Conway native college folks are home for the summer.  Great to see them.
• After the past week”’’s ROCK-bogathan, our number of squares purchased should be well above 40.  (Each “square” is $1000 toward paying off our land).
• Apparently some of my Facebook friends who dont attend The ROCK want to know what Dozen Controversial Things I believe about Relationship issues.  Here goes …

1. I believe everything the Bible says about relationships.
2. I believe the correct order of things is love, marriage, making love, REAL love, and THEN children.
3. I believe respect trumps romance every time.
4. I believe wives who withhold sex from their husbands are tempting them to commit at least mental adultery.
5. I believe men should be spiritual leaders in their homes.
6. I believe that by the healthiest definition of the word “submit,” wives should submit to the leadership of their own husbands.
7. I believe that children ARE a big enough reason to save the marriage.
8. I believe there is no such thing as a homosexual.
9. I believe todays children would benefit greatly from a paddle and a parents ability to say “NO.”
10. I believe “I need to be happy” is never a valid excuse for disobeying God.
11. I believe God loves and Jesus died for: homosexuals, hookers, porn addicts, adulterers, and assorted other sexual sinners.
12. I believe the power of God is capable of transforming anything, anybody, any marriage.

We had fun with all that this morning.  Nobody threw anything at me.  Nobody marched out.  And I will pray all week that God uses it to salvage and/or strengthen godly relationships.
