After a lengthy sabatical, he sits in front of his computer, fingers ready at the keyboard. So much to say...so much to write. Topics race wildly through his mind, each fighting for the right to take their rightful place on the field of honor...the blog. Many will read the entries. Some will cry. Some will laugh. But one thing is certain...he must write, because he is...the Media Pastor.

Derby Day Water Handout

Well, today is the day. The biggest day of the year in Louisville...The Kentucky Derby. And we thought it would be cool as a church (Life Pointe) to hand out water to people entering Churchill Downs. And it was...we handed out over 1200 bottles of water, and a lot of breakfast bars.

It was kind of tough, though. I can't believe how many people looked at us like we were trying to sell them something! The old "If it's too good to be true" syndrom.

My favorite moments of the day were at the end when Stephen was giving out his last few cereal bars, and I heard him say "I think they have protein", and "It taste like meat!"

Ahhh, a natural born salesman.
