Submerge Day 2

There's so much to post abt! God is doin so much! Service ended at
11:30 but about 100 students stayed and the band continued to play
till about 3:00!!! Simply amazing what God will do threw and to those
who are hungry for Him, this was the best B Day I ever could have!!!
The Holy Ghost fell like never before!!!

Hmmm

Ok so I'm not to sure abt this. My bed is 3ft away from this door, so
I definately bolt it!!!

Submerge Day 2

Over 600 students all out worshiping God with nothing to hide!
Amazing!!!!

Submerge day 1 part 2

Hmm what do u think Matt is thinking???

Submerge Day 1

Everyones past out! What up with dat?

Saturate Outreach

We took our Saturate students to the West Fel. Hospital, to do some
cleaning. Although since its a Hospital there is really not that much
cleaning to do! But they all had a blast and did an awesome job. Keep
it up guys!!!

The Vision Part 3

Ok so heres the outline of the house! If you can't see the vision yet
just wait soon u will b able to!!!

I know sometimes its hard to we the vision and you have to walk in it
even though you don't see it!

SMITE

Megs cousin graduated from a summer internship called SMITE. Summer
Missionaries In Traning, I dont remember the last word, sorry!!! But
it was a cool night. I was able to meet new cousins, there cool peeps!!!

The Vision 2

The crazy thing is we went threw 5 different banks untill we found one that was willing to give us the awesome opperrunity to build the house God has given us. And who would have thought it would be The Bank of St. Francisville!!! They are incredable 2 meetings and I signed papers to finalize the loan! You will be seeing updated pics soon!!!

I Bloged this 9/18/07. I thought it would be cool to take a look back and see what God has done since then...


Ok so some people don't see a 1662 square foot house on this 3rd of an achir. But I do. Its funny when God gives you a vision for something and your the only one who sees it some people may say your crazy or even stupid. But just remember when the vision is from God there's no stopping you!

How do you make Jambalya?

So this lady cones up and asks, "what is Jambalya?" all of a sudden
everyone looks at ne and so I begin to tell her how to make it. So I
know how I make Jambalya how do u make it? Let me know, I am always
interested in trying new ways!

Stuck In A Box

So Telia stopped by and as I was cleaning the ASAP room I hear this
loud crash and her say that's what I get. I turn around to find Telia
stuck in this empty box. Talk about funny! Needless to say she was
stuck and needed some help!

Preach Baby Preach

all of the students! Its truly amazing to see what God can do threw
people that love Him! Me and Meg love doing this!!!

The Griff Man

Well I stumbled across this pic. Check out the boy to the left! Do you
know who he is? I do, hes one of the hardest working guys in our
Church. I would go to war with this guy any day! Much love Griff Man!!!

Refuge

Bro Mikr came in and did his drama for us at Refuge, he always knocks
it out of the park!!!

Psl 31:8
"You have not handed me over to my enemies but have set me in a safe
place."

I think in this verse David is reminding himself that God has not
handed him over to his enemies. Sometimes we loose sight of what God
is doing in us b/c of our outward circumstances! I know I loose focus
sometimes.

But we've gotta learn from what David did. Even though things are
going wrong and it seems like were never gonna get to the place God
has called us we've gotta remember one thing....

"You have not handed me over to my enemies but have set me in a safe
place!"

You never know why things happen the way they happen. But God has His
own timing and He does everything foe a reason.

Stand Up Stand Out

Relay for Lufe

Well we have been at the sports park since about 10:30am and it is
going on 11:15pm still have a wile to go. My amazing wife has been
here with me the whole time! Thats right she's a Soldja, for Jesus!!!
We may leave here for 12am if everyone starts to roll out.

On another subject David St. Romain, sorry if I spelled it wrong,
calls me the other day and is just talkin bout sound stuff. I ran the
sound sorry I forgot to mention that. And if any of you know me I can
run the wires and kind of mix and that's really about it, so it was
funny listening to him talk about all that and I kinds know what hes
talking about. All I am gonna say is he is an awesome man of God! If
you don't know him your missing out!!!

ASAP

God is doing amazing things at ASAP! We had 32 students and here is a
shot of one of them takin a quick nap, must have been a long day! If
you have never been to ASAP we need you!!! Or at least we need you to
donate food and drinks!!! If you are not sure then stop by and check
us out Monday - Friday from 3-6.

Refuge

We had an awesome night Subnday night! Brother Mike McCain did his
drama and it was AWESOME!!!!
If you missed it then you missed out Big Time!!!! Don't forget abt
Refuge Laid Back this Sunday! Doors open at 6!!!!

Tallent Show

Alvin and the Chipmunks won hands down at the tallent show! Compared
to the other performances, in my opinion they were the best! Everyone
did well, but at the end of the night the Chipmunks went home with 1st
place!

Watch Out

Well I get a phone call and its A Scott!!! He asks whee I am and says
I'll be there in 5....

I was supprised when he rolled up on this!

When the girls were gone!!!

Well I walked into the Printing room at the Annex and saw these crazy
guys shrink wrapping the everything they could get their hands on that
belonged to the girls and wrap it up! Yall are crazy!!!

Cool thought

Here's a pic from our anniversary.

Here's a thought,
You know the story of The Rick Young Ruler....
Well he wasn't looking for the Lord to tell him how to inherit eternal
life, he was looking for a teacher to tell him how to. You see he
called Jesus teacher instead of Lord! That's the difference between
students and disciples. A student calls Jesus teacher, a deciple
called Him Lord!
ARE YOU A STUDENT OR A DECIPLE???

HP Men

Last nite was HP Men and I was bringing a friend for the first time,
and we pulled up and there were bookoo cars at Pastor Timmys house!
There were men there that I haven't seen before, ever! It was awesome!
A total of 36 men chowin down on some BBQ and lovein life togeather!

To the schools we go!

Ok so every Tuesday and Thursday we go to the Middle School and Wed
and Friday we go to the High School.

Today as we all were standing talking a student walked up and one of
the girls said hey this is Megan and Eddie the leaders of the cult you
were talking about! All I could say is WOW! Everyone started laughing
and that guy just turned around and went back inside.

After I was able to talk I said WOW, I have never been introduced that
way!

It amazes me that some people see the difference in the students and
how God is changing their lives and still call us a cult. The even
craiser part is that it is people who have never even stepped foot in
our church!!!

Dont judge something till you know what its about!!!

1 year exactly

Ok so its tradition to eat the top level of your wedding cake on your
1 year anniv.! I didnt know that, so we did and it was still actually
good!

But I can actually say this first year has flown by and I have never
been happier in my life! I love my beautiful wife, its amazing that
she also says this year has flown by!

I love you Meg!!!!

Here's a shot of our weekend! I'll be sending more soon!!!

best part is God gets all the glory! I love serving at HPC

Hmmm

How many of us txt and drive? I know I do! And it figures I would sit

The Klings

My boy finely tied the knot!!! Congrats man!!!

Psalms 19:14

Here David is praying to God and he says, "May the words of my mouth
and the meditations of my heart be pleasing to You."

Wow how amazing is that? Thats one of my continuous prayser that my my
mouth and my heart would stay in check and in tune with what He wants me to say and think!

ASAP

Were on our way to the Louisiana Arts and Science Museum on the cheese
wagon!

Thats what Im talkin bout

This is how you know that God gets all the glory, when someone who's
given the mic and is told to sing and all they can do is drop to their
knees in worship! Thats a true worship leader!!!

HPC Experience

All I can say is WOW!!! Awesome Pastors and awesome servants taking
care of eachother!

Souljas Sellin Jambalya

Here we are tryin to raise money for students to go to camp! Our
Cooking for Christ Team decided they wanted to donate the food to us!
So a big thanks to Cooking For Christ foe donating their time and
funds to send students to camp!!!

Almost One Year!

So I decided to buy 12 dozen roses for my Beautiful Bride! It has
almost been a year since we said I do. Hard to believe she can still
put up with me! I could not imagine one single day without her in my
life! You know they say the first year of marrage is the hardest, well
I am proud to say if this year was the hardest then we must be doing
something right! This has been my best year yet across the board! And
I am so glad I get to share it with you Megan! I love you so much! And
I am glad everyday that you said yes and continue to say yes! You are
my best friend, and I love you with all my heart!!!!!

Matt 11:12 nlt
"the Kingdom of Heaven has been advancing and violent people are attacking it."

Here's the question, Who's side are you on?
Some people believe that its not their fight, or that they can have the best of both worlds and that in the end they will be able to pick the right side when the time comes. Well now is that time! If you have never picked your side then today is your day!
"I wish that you'd be hot or cold if your lukewarm I will spit you out of my mouth!" Rev 3:15-16 nlt.

We are defiantly in a war! And it is a battle to the end. If you are not being attacked then I have to wonder who's side you are on!

"For many are called but few are chosen." Matt 22:13 nlt
God has called all of us to do something in this fight to advance His Kingdom, but as I said earlier some people sit on the side saying this is not my fight; Why should I get involved in someone else's life and try to help them make right decisions? I gotta look out for myself! OK so maybe that is true you do have to look out for yourself, but at the same time how could you sit there and watch one of your brothers or sisters in Christ go down in flames! Pardon the expression...
That's the reason few are chosen, because no one wants to do what it takes to make a difference in someone else's life.

So are you that guy? The one who's aimlessly walking down the side line watching everyone else in the battle? If so time to get in the game! Help advance the Kingdom! We need you. No matter your past , no matter what you think about yourself, no matter your circumstances. WE NEED YOU!

Will you answer the call?

Refuge

All I can say is AMAZONG! Thank You God for letting me be a part of
this! 26 students incredable worship, its like the Holy Ghost dropped
a bomb in that place, awesome flow by my man Jamie! And best of all 6
new souls for The Kingdom!

Outta Place

So I am the only guy at HP Women, which is our women ministry for
those of you that dont know, and in all these females I found the one
thing that I knew was delfinately from God. Cajun Crawtators. So here
I find myself tucked away in the back corner of the sound booth eatin
all their Crawtators!!!

Mullet

This guy is rockin that mullet!

My boys

These are my people! Soldjas for Jesus! They are the ones that are
gonna go and do things that I never will have the opperrunity to do!
This is their moment!

Amplifies

In the past we have taken anywhere between 2 and 4 students to
Amplified before. Well we had a little problem trying to figure out
how we were going to get 24 students to the Hihhland campus'! This is
our biggest group ever. Thane You Jesus for the incredable people that
helped drive everyone down there. This is by far our biggest group ever!

Distractions

Well I'm driving to BR and traffic is all backed up, at 11! And I
notice this driving distraction! So here I am along with everyone else
looking at this driving distraction!

Preston

Rock that fro man rock that fro

Da Man!!!

This dude is the man!!!

--Gen 16:3a--
So sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar the Egyptian servant and gave her to Abram as a wife."

This was the "NORM" in past culture, "back in the day". Now culture says it you have more than one wife it's illegal and moraly wrong.

I definitely believe God intended marrage for one man and one woman. But isn't it funny how culture/ society can set the tone for our lives! I mean really who are the culture and society people anyway? Do they sit in a room or on a board and vote about what is culturally relevant? I think we as Christ Followers should be the ones setting the tone for society! We should be the ones saying what is culturally and morarlly right and wrong! We need to get in the game and get our heads out of the clouds. It's time to stop being passive Christians and start doing what we were made to do, serve God with no reservations, without holding anything back.

I admire those who stand for what they believe in, and I know how hard it is to truely stand your ground. But I don't understand how some people call themselves Christians or Christ followers and still sit on the bench and say well it's not my time yet, or this isn't quite what I had in mind or I am not called to do this. Give me a break, the Bible says, "All are called but few are chosen!" I think few are chosen because everyone is waiting to be chosen and they aren't acknoweldging the fact that they are called.

So here it is, stop sitting on the bench! Get In the Game! You are called, will you answer the call?
