The other day I heard on a Christian radio station one of the most ridiculous songs I have ever heard. Basically it was saying that little girls are princesses and your wife is a queen and women are perfect. Not true. I have a sister and mother. Don't get me wrong, they are wonderful people, but they are not supernatural in any sense. I just think that Christian society has placed this unrealistic expectation upon men to treat the women in their lives like goddesses. Women make mistakes, poor choices, and have their bad days just like men. I want to love an respect my wife, daughter, and mother, but I also don't want to place them on a pedestal. We are all equal. I know this may sound like an anti-feminist rant, but it's not...I just want to hear more songs on The Wind that talk about husbands and sons as kings and princes, that's all.

I may be going back home to Des Moines after my internship. I've been praying for some things to fall in place here in Springfield, but so far they have not come to pass. I'm still praying...but maybe He's got another plan.

I Love America was on the 3rd this year. It's amazing that a church can put on a fireworks show so large that the city decides to forget their fireworks display. They say over 120,000 people were there...so at least that many heard the Gospel message, not including those watching the God TV broadcast. Israel Houghton and NewBreed played as well as Leeland. They were both sick, but Israel's band was insane. Their bassist was rocking a 6 -string bass like nobody's business. Oh, and John Lindell messed up the pledge of allegiance...that's not embarrassing...

Shot off my own fireworks last night. Colton Moos, Taylor Higgins, and Chad Lee need to take a class on fireworks safety...throwing fireworks into a bonfire is not a favorable way to celebrate the 4th. I spent most of the night ducking and covering my head. Nevertheless, it was awesome hanging out with some of the Evangel crowd once again.
