I LOVE FALL

There is nothing like the Fall. Saturday College football, falling asleep on Sunday afternoons to the NFL, the cool breeze (well only for about 2 days in Texas...the season usually gets skipped and we go straight to winter)...AND new tv shows...

The fall is a great time for new shows...What new shows are you most excited about? What are your top three shows?

Top 3 shows I watch right now - 1. Lost, 2. The Amazing Race, 3. Prison Break.

What new shows am I looking forward to... E-ring & Invasion

But My most fave is 24...can;t wait till January.

Mr A-Z

I am really digging some Jason Mraz right now. If you haven't heard Jason Mraz, check him out on itunes. He has a pleasant voice...it is easy to listen to, great pitch and his lyrics are quick and fast. He has a great way with his melodies. My favorite song right now is "Wordplay." Anybody else listen to Jason Mraz?

So what should STOOPS do?

As many of you have heard...my Sooners are just not like the Sooners of the past 5 years. Our passing game is pathetic, or defense...not like the days with Dan Cody, Teddy Lehman, etc. So the only things we have going for us is the running game...the amazing Adrien Petersen...man among boys. BUT...he has decided to skip class and now Coach Stoops is faced with the decision of whether he should play or not Saturday? So does the highest paid coach in college football get paid to show tuff love or win games? That is the question ESPN.com asks. What do you think? Should Stoops play AD or not?

Here WE GO!!!

Just a simple prayer request for Keystone Church. Please pray for us as we move to 2 services this weekend. I know many churches have 3, 4, 5, and even 6 services (like Matt Chandler's Church, The Village - by the way...amazing place!) but we are almost 11 months old. This is amazing! The most amazing thing is the absolute excitement our people have about the 2 services. Keystone is truly blessed. So pray for the details, the volunteers, and most of all for GOd to move in our midst on our 2 services. thanks again! Brian

Losing My Religion

Tomorrow Keystone starts a new series called Losing My Religion. I am very excited about this new series. What's it about? Brandon says it best..."Everyone is looking for something real. That is never more true than when it comes to God. Starting September 11, we will explore the difference between religion and a relationship with God."

I love the new graphic. My friend Bill Jones designed this graphic. He actually drew the hands. Anyways, if you are in the area, come check out "Losing My Religion" at Keystone!!!

This water was too hard to work for...

So last night I was in downown with Fort Worth with Brandon and Susan shooting a Man on the Street video for Keystone. It was a nice evening but by the end I was a little parched. So Brandon stopped into Jamba Juice to get us some bottle water while I was shooting some b-roll. I couldn't wait to drink the water. When I got in the car I opened up the top wrapper and proceeded to pop the drink top and drink away. Usually when you drink bottled water with one of those built-in straws, you squeeze the bottle a little and the water flows. Not with Jamba Juice water. They want you to work for it. This bottle was un-squeezable. I found myself straining to get the water out. By the time I finally finished the bottle, I was parched again from all the hard work. I thought it was just me and maybe I was extremely weak. But when I mentioned how hard it was to drink, everyone agreed. So the lesson...get something other than water at Jamba Juice.

Isaiah 43

Isaiah 43
But now, O Israel, the LORD who created you says: "Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown! When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy one of Israel, your Savior. "Do not be afraid, for I am with you.
NLT

Free Hurricane Katrina Video for worship services

My church, Keystone Church, has created a video montage of images from Hurricane Katrina to be used in our Gathering this weekend. This video is free to anyone to use. You can use it in your bible study, worship service, etc. Above is a preview. The downloaded file does not have music for copyright reasons so you will have to provide your own music. We will be using the video during the song "Still" by Hillsongs which is on the above preview. Click here for a chart of the song. The song is on the Hillsong's "Hope" CD. Pass the word along!

UPDATE: We have taken the video off our servers due to bandwidth issues. Our website experienced major bandwidth issues because of the many downloads. Thanks!
