I recently picked up a Line 6 Pod XT Live and am curious if any of you have some patches that you would recommend for praise and worship.
It would be great to get it setup so that I can use it for a set soon. I'm thinking that a bank with distortion, chorus, delay and maybe a clean acoustic effect would pretty much get me through a whole worship set.
Looking forward to the feedback...

Apartment Living
We're so happy and relieved that our house sold recently. Now we're moved into an apartment and trying to enjoy not having to get out of the house at a moment's notice for a showing. Our options have definitely expanded now.
We even made a quick trip to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee to celebrate and to get a little relaxation. Much overdo in my opinion. I've needed some time away from boxes and to enjoy the family.
Thank God for His faithfulness and for giving us the strength to see this process through to completion!

Homeless
So it appears that after having our house on the market for a while now that we will finally be homeless in about a week.
Now we're extremely, crazy, ridiculous busy trying to get all of the details together for the move. It looks like we'll be moving into an apartment somewhere in Charlotte for now.
More to come soon. Keep us in your prayers! We still have a lot of things to line up and work out.

Bear With Me
I know I haven't posted in a while. There are a number of things going on that I'll be able to share in due time. Until then, bear with me.
It's all good. I promise. Hopefully I can share soon.

Introduction to Drafting
I helped Miriam put together this video for her dad to use to present to a Boy Scout troop. Not bad considering we just used our Sony digital camera (not video camera) to shoot the video.
My wife is incredibly intelligent and some kinda gorgeous. Enough said.

New Videos
Keep an eye out on my YouTube page throughout the day. There are a number of new videos being uploaded of Ian.
And I know that most of you check the blog for Ian, not to read what I have to say. It's OK. I'm a big boy. I can handle the truth.
UPDATE: The videos finished uploading. Check them out!

Emptying
Emotions and what you're going through are sometimes a very difficult thing to put into words. Sometimes I'm not even sure what's going on. Those are times when I think God is doing things behind the scenes that I'm totally ignorant about. Times that require an incredible amount of trust.
And there are times that a song can capture where you're at, what you're feeling. That song came to mind today at the end of my work day, Kevin Prosch's Kiss The Son:
When you've been broken, broken to pieces.I definitely believe that the last year has been an emptying phase of my life. A time of reflection to examine my heart and for there to be clarity in areas that I questioned God about. A time of encouragement and stretching.
And Your heart begins to faint
'cause you don't understand.
And when there is nothing to rake from the ashes.
And you can't even walk
onto the fields of praise.
But I bow down and kiss the Son.
Oh, and I bow down and kiss the Son.
Let the praise of the Lord be in my mouth.
Let the praise of the Lord be in my mouth.
Well, though You slay me, I will trust You, Lord.
Well, though You slay me, I will trust You, Lord.
Though You slay me, I will trust You, Lord.
Though You slay me, I will trust You, Lord.
When the rock falls, falls upon you.
And you get ground to dust
no music for your pain.
You open the windows, the windows of heaven.
And then You opened me
and You crushed me like a rose.
It's been a difficult but rewarding time. With that being said, I hope that this chapter is completed soon. But I don't want to rush it either because I don't want to repeat it. I'm confident and I trust that the work that He has started will be completed.

End of Self Imposed Exile
I know I have not blogged in a while. I admittedly spend way too much time on a computer and the internet, even when it doesn't involve work. So as the holidays approached, I wanted to consciously scale back my time on a computer so I could focus on other things. And as a result, no new blog entries for about a month.
On one hand I almost feel bad about it for some odd reason. But on another hand, I feel a sense of pride. I'm glad that I did it because it has allowed me to evaluate a number of things in my life and has provided me with more time to really think about a lot of things going into the new year.
Sometimes we have to shake things up in order to be shaken up!

Blog Killers
I've figured out why I haven't blogged more lately. It's rather simple actually. Blame it all on Facebook and Twitter.
It seems that writing a blog entry is a more labor intensive activity than just checking Facebook every now and again or updating my status on Twitter.
I'll try to do better to not neglect my blog friends and family. But if you're itching to find out what's going on with me, follow me on Twitter and add me on Facebook.

Ian's First Thankgiving

Miriam and I were able to enjoy a Thanksgiving meal at Cracker Barrel with Ms. Peggy and Melissa. Ian enjoyed all of the attention and good food!
To cheer up all of my friends and family after the LSU loss, be sure to check out the newest uploaded pictures on Flickr!
