Happy Father's Day

Today is a good day.

We dedicated Benjamin at church today. We asked Ethan to be his spiritual mentor. No one outside of me and his mother will have more opportunity for influence than big brother.

The band played Creed's "Arms Wide Open" in honor of Father's day. That was cool.

Greg used the word "innards" in his message. But it was an excellent message on "pausing" when tempted to think about the effect our sin can have on others.

During "We Fall Down" at the end, I saw one lady put her arm around another who is going through a tough time. So cool to see care and compassion taking place.

This afternoon I got to relax, watch a movie, grill some steak and read. It was a good day.

In honor of Father's day I wanted to recommend three books that have been the most helpful to me on being a dad.
