The Marriage class was a big success!

Wow! What an incredible six weeks!

We just wrapped up our "Staying Married on Purpose" class with about 20 couples and it was awesome! We met some great people and deepened some relationships. Best of all was the feedback we got back on our evaluation. One woman told us that after 20 years of marriage her husband started praying with her in the mornings -- because of the class! Isn't that amazing? Others told us they have begun pursuing God together as a couple, doing their devotions together, praying together and reading the Bible together. It just shows you how faithful God is when you just obey Him.

For our friends back in Georgia, we were planning to come back and visit this summer but ticket prices have been too expensive. Hopefully, we can make it this fall. Meanwhile we've been playing around on Google Earth looking at places like the Big Chicken, Turner Field, and the Caldwells' house. We really miss you guys! :-(

Third day gives my old band a shout out...


My good buddy Mark Lee, guitarist extraordinaire from Third Day, gave JT a nice plug on his blog yesterday:

I had so much fun last week with Hair Metal Day that we've got to keep the party going. This week we're going to talk about our favorite old school CCM artists. I'm going to get it started with a list of 10 CCM bands. No particular order...

...3. Jacob's Trouble - Great live band - I saw them at least 20 times in concert.



Thanks, Mark! You guys are definitely in our Top Ten CCM bands that have covered a JT song! Wait, you guys are the only band to cover a JT song. Oh well...

Anyhoo, it's a cool blog post and if you want to read the whole thing you can find it here.
