February is shaping up to be a huge spiritual steroid shot for me. In just a few weeks I’m going to be exposed some some serious edification. To start with, our men’s group is going to be diving into the Wild At Heart Field Manual on February 6. I read Wild At Heart on my own a couple years ago and it was pretty inspiring. To be able to plow through this material with a bunch of other men will be awesome.

Up next is the Change Without Compromise conference at Northridge Church on February 8-10. I was blessed to be chosen as one of a few people from NewSong to attend this conference and I am really looking forward to it. Northridge is a great example of what God can do through the church if it steps out in faith. The conference also includes a little concert with Nichole Nordeman and Aaron Shust.

Speaking of Northridge, I have not been to a better concert / worship service than the Indescribable Tour with Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman and Louie Giglio at Northridge last year. That is why I am so excited to be traveling to Fort Wayne to see the same trio for the How Great Is Our God Tour with Tonia and a few close friends on February 25.

Couple that with a few new books I’m reading, the New Testament study I’m beginning, the family I have, and the church that surrounds me, I’d say February 2007 will, in retrospect, be the beginning of something great for the Mud Puppy.
