I'm Baaaaaack

Well my time in Pullman at WSU is finished for now and my year of adventure has begun. The first 3 months of this year of adventure will take place in one of my favorite places in the world Malibu Club in Canada. Malibu is where I have been interning the past two summers and I am extremely excited to be back. I know that Malibu is exactly the place where God wants me to be. He has given me a new role and view on camp this summer that I know will teach me a ton of stuff that could help in equipping me.

This summer I will take on the role as Sound Tech at Malibu. This is an area that I have no experience at all. It is a scary but exciting new job. I know because of this new role and lack of experience I will have to totally depend on the Holy Spirit and His guidance to serve to my best ability. I have only been here for 6 days and people continue to rally around me to help me in learning and fitting into my role.

I have really tried to take a step back and look at the amazing blessings that the Lord has given me while I have been here at Malibu. Any moment I get to look upon the glorious mountains that God created I just take a deep breath and think about how amazing it is to be here and thankful I am for being able to call this my summer job the past 3 summers.

With being a sound tech I will have the opportunity to listen to every speaker that comes through and so hopefully I will be able to leave you with some thoughts that I have received or have myself. Here is one from the sin talk that was just given at the Men's weekend...

Ash the main speaker read through the beginning of Genesis and the birth of sin and death. He focussed on the verse in Genesis 3:4 "You will not certainly die," the serpent said to the woman.




Ash then related this verse to the sin in all of our lives. For instance, the moment a man begins to take that second look at a woman the voice of the serpent whispers "You will not certainly die". Or when a man is about to click on pornography the serpent whispers "You will not certainly die". Or when a person has the drink on their lips to begin to make them drunk the serpent whispers "You will not certainly die". The serpent's whisper convinces us to commit sin which ultimately leads to this shame.. The same shame that Adam and Eve felt in the garden when the realized that they were naked is the same shame that we feel after we commit our sins today. This is a reminder to me that ALL sin is the same. We must all be on guard for the deceptive voice of the serpent and fight it with the Word of God. We must also repent and realize that Jesus died on the cross and has forgiven us for our darkness.

It is a love story.
