There are only two ways to get an Issues, Etc t-shirt.
You have to make a personal appearance or be chosen for sound byte of the week.
When Don went to visit the St. Louis campus, the guys all stopped by the station and introduced themselves on the air.

Smart Enough to Come In Out of The Rain

It's been raining for a couple of days and it's muggy, so I opened the back door to let in some fresh air. Noah walked right outside to play. A few minutes later, he came back in, soaking wet, but smiling.

This is a radio blog, remember to turn up the volume on your computer. Guys from Fort Wayne and St. Louis talk about the classes that they are taking and some of what they are learning during their time there.

It provides a great opportunity for your congregation to hear from some of the seminarians.

Growing Up Baby

Noah this morning was playing around with his toys and I thought it was cute that he had grabbed the fire hat and the fire truck from his toy crate. I got out the camera, and caught him just in time to watch him put on the hat. He is so proud of himself.
I've also noticed how much the kids have grown since we moved here, especially the little ones. Noah was just 7 months old, and now he's nearly 1 1/2 and using a bowl and spoon and walking around. Jacob was almost three and barely talking, now he's using complete sentences and carrying on conversations - when we first got here, he wouldn't talk to anyone at church, now he participates in Sunday School discussions. The changes in the older kids are more subtle, but there. If you haven't seen us since last August, I'm sure you'll notice the differences the next time we get together. For now, I'll just keep trying to share moments with you through pictures.

Spring Break is Over - Half way through 1st year!

Wow! We are half way through the 1st year of Seminary. Six months from now, we'll be a Sem-2 family. Some days, I feel like we just got here.

We just arrived home from a trip to Michigan. We visited with family in Ludington on Saturday, went to church at Trinity Reed City on Saturday night and worked at the Fantastical Talent Show at Redolencia in Ludington on Sunday. The kids did a great job and now Corinne has a lot of film footage to edit and a DVD to make.

Caitlin played her guitar (sort of, she's just starting to learn it) and sang Happy Birthday to her mom. Summer was the MC and hostess of the event, and she made the most of her moments on stage. Tyler and Ethan performed a short skit that they made up together. Daddy took Jacob and Noah to the park, but he'll get to help with the DVD, so he'll see the performances many times.

Corinne is taking some classes at IPFW, including journalism and just got her first article published.
