winterfest 2010

the last few years at winterfest have not been as spiritually enlightening as they were in my younger years, but one thing that never changes is the sense of community and love the mitchell church of christ group always has. spending time with the people from my home church is always such a good experience no matter who you are with. there are so many good people in mitchell that i didn't appreciate nearly as much while living there. so if anyone that was at winterfest reads this, thank you for being an inspiration to me and to so many other people.

although i am not a big fan of the things jeff walling says and his dramatic way of doing it, he always teaches me a form of patience. wether i like what he is saying or not, i have to remember that some people get alot out of his sermons and i need to relax, not judge, and let him do what God gave him the ability to do and be affective at. i always let myself be distracted by the theatrics, the music and all of the things that don't matter. the words that are said are most important and are usually good things, except today when jwall claimed that there were twins on seans season of the biggest loser. FALSE. but every year winterfest and impact help my practice a form of patience i'm not used to, and even if im not being as spiritually challenged as i would like to be, i know i'm growing as a person and thats a gift in itself.
