My very short time at blogger is done. It's an ok blogging software, but at the recommendation of friends, I've decided to move my blog to WordPress.
i have to say it's pretty amazing. Don't pass go, don't collect 200... just take my advice and move now.
For the about 3 of you that read this blog... just hop over and subscribe/bookmark me here:

0-4 last weekend
Last weekend I was rooting for the Chiefs, Cowboys, Jets (good thing mom doesn't read my blog), and Giants.
My teams were 0-4. The way the Cowboys lost was so shocking, I'm still not recovered. I feel sorry for Tony Romo... that was such a freak play. I really think the fumble by Terry Glen changed the game more than any other play. It ended up being an 8 point play for the Seahawks - (failed 2 point conversion after safety and touchdown).

Ever wonder what 200 calories looks like?
I really didn't expect that I could have more glazed donut than bagel.

love this math
My friend Shawn did some amazing math about the last 10 hours of the onething conference.

http://thefightspot.com/2006/12/100000-man-prayer-hours/
10,000 in people Kansas City are praying and fasting for 10
hours.
- That’s 100,000 man hours of prayer
- or 11.5 years of someone praying 24/7
- That’s 4,166 “National Days of Prayer”
- If the average person prayed for 2 hours a day, it would take them 137 years to pray 100,000 hours
- If five people prayed for 2 hours a week, it would take 192 years to
pray 100,000 man-prayer hours

Getting used to the new webstream
Overall I like the changes to the prayer room that were done over the onething conference. The new look is definately an improvement over the old one, visually speaking. I know it is a work in progress, but there are some funny things I've seen over the past couple days.
In the old prayer room shots, you saw most of the stage: prayer leader, intercessor mic on the floor, 4 singers, percussion, drums, acoustic 1 & 2 and keys.
Now, you never know. Right now, you can see the worship leader, matt, in an inset and the prayer leaders and 3 of the singers. It is kinda weird when I hear someone singing who isn't in the shot. Even more weird this morning at the 6 a.m. set was the shot that cut off part of the head of the Tim and Marcus... while you know their head is still there somewhere, it's still a little disturbing.
And it's seriously disturbing, to me at least, to not see who's praying at the intercessor mic. I know before you really couldn't see them, but a fuzzy image with lots of brown in the background worked better, at least for me.
Over all, I like the direction that IHOP-KC is going with this and I know it's just the "joy" of growing pains. If you don't subscribe to the webstream, you should. For $10 a month you get 744 hours of worship and prayer a week. What a deal.

The things that lie ahead of us
I've been struck over the past months over what is building in Islam and the Middle East....
here's a quote from Brent Steeno from Dave Sliker's blog:
We need to wake up.
here's a quote from Brent Steeno from Dave Sliker's blog:
Did you know that a head Imam in Iran said that in 2007 the sword will be used to cut the heads off those who do not follow Islam? Did you know that a group of Muslims gathered around the ancient home of Jesus and shouted Islam will dominate the world? Did you know that Iraq could be soon split into three parts divided amongst different people groups? Did you know that that event could have major Biblical importance? Did you know that Islam will soon take control of the governments of Europe, not by force but by having more children then them? Did you know that in five to ten years the majority of the voting population in Europe will be of Middle Eastern decent and Muslim? Did you know that China does not have enough children to even support its rapid growing economies? Did you know that Europe does not have enough young adults to support its welfare state? Did you know that in Italy it will be common in 20 years to no longer have brother’s, sisters, or cousins? Did you know that the population of the world is actually expected to reach its peak by the year 2050 and actually decline? Did you know that overpopulation is not the problem in this world but the fact that China and Europe do not have enough children left to help fund their selfishness and will soon implode from within? Europe much sooner then China. Did you know that India will soon pass China as the fastest growing economy in the world? Did you know that India is actually the USA’s closest ally in the world? Did you know that China is now currently sending vast amounts of military equipment and building military facilities on the borders of India? Did you know that China is actually funding the surrounding nations of India to being to build up their military? Did you know that China is actually very scared of India?
We need to wake up.
