This weekend all of the Calvary worship gatherings will be meeting together at the Eisenhower Auditorium for one great big worship gathering! We’ll start with a prayerwalk at 9:45, coffee will be served on the patio at 10, and the singing begins at 10:30. We’ve got a great mix of Read more
You just can’t reason with a baby. No matter how many times I tell Charlie, “Hang on, bud, I’ll change your diaper. I know that you’re carrying a full load, and I have every intention of getting you some dry undies in just a minute” he insists on crying and Read more
It’s stunning, really, to think that Levi turns 16 this week. Maybe it’s the fact that we also have a 6 week old baby in the house now, but 16? Seriously? Levi is a great young man. He and I have had our moments over the past few years. We’re Read more
That’s Josie’s question! She and Kim were reading a book about mammals today. It’s fun hanging around Josie, because we never really know what’s going to come out of her mouth next! She’s got such a sweet innocence about her. She trusts us, and knows that we love her, that Read more
As much as I dislike the fact that living in a college town means that our friends are transient, I happen to love the fact that living in a college town means that we are always getting to meet and make new friends. That’s just one of the redeeming qualities Read more

I’m doing something I never thought I’d do–watching the Raiders, and rooting for them to win. It’s a little uncomfortable. I’ve never been a Raider-hater; more like a Raider-ambivalent. But I feel a connection with the Raider Nation. I’ve got a friend wearing the Black and Silver. That got me Read more
That thought is attributed to Michaelangelo. Pretty easy for him to say, right? But that thought has been running around in my heart and mind lately. A few weeks ago, Pete Wilson blogged about this idea as it relates to church life. Maybe that’s why it’s been rolling around in Read more
I got to lead a group of folks on a prayerwalk around Beaver Stadium, the Bryce Jordan Center, and the football building tonight. As we approach Calvary on Campus (9/25, 10:30 at the Eisenhower Auditorium) Calvary folks are going to be walking and praying all over campus. It was a Read more
As I sit here, the rain is gently falling, as it has been for the past 24 hours. Mr. Weatherman (did you know Accuweather is based in State College?) says that we should expect almost 7 more inches of rain to fall over the next 2 days. Personally, I love Read more
