As I mentioned in an earlier post<\/a>, I preached at an inner-city youth group Friday night. I got back around midnight, went to bed, and woke up to drive to Yuba City.<\/p>\n

We spent the night at Jeff and Lori Wright\u2019s place (their son Andrew is involved in Chi Alpha @ Stanford<\/a>), and then we shared at Sutter Community Church in the morning.<\/p>\n

Side note: when I preach I generally put my cell phone on silent mode and set it on the pulpit as a way of keeping time. Unfortunately, when I receive a call the phone displays a new mail notification instead of the usual clock. That\u2019s relevant only because Alicia Chole<\/a> called me in-between points 2 and 3. I say this not to chastise Alicia, but merely because I found it funny. For the record, I did not answer the phone.<\/p>\n

Anyway, we went out for lunch after and had a great time with the pastor and his family and the worship leader and his wife.<\/p>\n

Then we headed to the Wright\u2019s house to watch the first half of the Superbowl<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Then it was off to preach at Calvary Temple in Yuba City<\/a>. There were a TON of people there, which surprised me given that the Superbowl was going on and that a California team was playing. Anyway, we had a great time sharing with the people. I even got to tell a pretty funny Raiders joke and not get lynched.<\/p>\n

Paula and I would like to publicly commend Calvary Temple and Pastor Ciociola: they gave us the largest offering to aid our work that we\u2019ve ever received, and they did it while the Superbowl was being played with a team from their state contending for the championship! May God richly bless them with every blessing at His disposal.<\/p>\n

And then we left and we returned home around 11pm and crashed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
