Humbleness.

So, yesterday we made so pretty big mistakes on our 'debut' set with the band....we decided that God is teaching us humbleness. It worked. The very first song we did, the vocalist started the wrong song. In her defense, mixing up the two songs was totally not her fault. They both are written by Chris Tomlin, they both begin with the same words, and they both begin with the same chord progression. A prize goes out to the first person who can figure out which two songs were mixed up. :) For you musicians, another one was the classic mistake of one guitarist capo'ing on the wrong fret. All we really could do later was laugh. Laugh & grow.

From just yesterday to today, God grew us as a band - it's great! Of course, there still were mistakes....we all didn't come in after the drummer clicked us in....so we just stopped, laughed, and started over.

Aside from band stuff, NST is going well! We had a great men's/women's time last night, and we're hearing from speakers today and tomorrow, and then classes start up Monday! Yikes! Pray for these graduate-level classes and us as we're transitioning back to students. We thought that after we left BGSU, we were done. Nope!

We'll leave you now with a picture that Tony took yesterday from our patio:
