Jesus Christ is perfect theology. For anyone who wants to know the will of God,...

Let's Just Be Real Here, My Family Is Ridiculous:
Mom: Wow! Look at this beautiful road! What a forest! The trees are so big and dense! Lauren, if you crash your car out here, no one will EVER be able to find you. Wow!
Lauren: ... Thanks mom.
Nothing is impossible.
– God (Mark 9:23)
Reasons Why My Grandpa Is Hilarious, Part 3:
(While checking in at our hotel in Texas)
Hotel Clerk: Okay, now I just need to see your ID and credit card.
Grandpa: Oh you bet. I got an ID. Everyone knows me! The FBI! The CIA! The KKK! You name it.
Mom: Uhhaha, he's kidding...
Me: Merp.
Reasons Why My Grandpa Is Hilarious, Part 2:
Grandpa: You know to be honest, I really love to travel. I've always wanted to! But, we never had the time, money, or transportation...
Mom: Well, now you can! You now have the time, money, AND transportation!
Grandpa: Yeah... but now I don't have desire. Now I'm just old... and lazy.

City Driving
[Tori and I are headed down the 60 Freeway. I'm merging onto the exit ramp]
Tori: Man, people in Arizona just don't know how to drive.
Me: I know right! Everyone is a crazy-bad driver and doesn't know what they're doing. Oh my gosh... I need to get over into the exit lane... That truck won't move over! He won't let me merge in front! I'm not going to get into the lane! Ah! MOVE OVER TRUCK! AHH!!!
Tori: TURN YOUR BLINKER ON!
Lauren: Oh! Yeah...

“Busyness is the painkiller of an orphan spirit.” -Bill Johnson
Tonight, I jogged around ASU listening to Bethel Church’s sermon entitled “Infinite Father” by Bob Johnson, Bill Johnson’s brother (you can listen to it here). The podcast wasn’t life changing necessarily (although Bob is hilarious) but it WAS thought provoking. After it finished and my was...

Quirky-man-named-John: Hey, you guys did a really great job leading worship.
Luke: Thanks!
Rudy: Yeah, thank you.
Lauren: It was fun!
Quirky-man-named-John: Hey, and you know what? You play guitar pretty well... for being a girl...
Lauren: Uh...
Rudy: ZOMG!

“M.I.L.K. is an epic photographic celebration of what it is to be part of a family, share the gift of friendship and more than anything else, to be loved. Inspired by the 1950s landmark photographic exhibition “The Family of Man”, M.I.L.K. began as a worldwide search to develop a collection of extraordinary and geographically diverse images portraying humanity’s “Moments of...
