Another Bo-Bo for BamBam

Your Fortune in Church vs. in Bed

You know that terrible game people play with fortunes from fortune cookies? You know the one where you add "in bed" to each saying? Yeah you do.

My darling husband has decided to "Christianize" this tradition by exchanging "in bed" with "in church."

This came about the other night during our take-out Chinese dinner. Here are some of our fortunes in church:

1. The whole world is a narrow bridge the important thing is not to be afraid (in church).

2. The architect of your destiny is yourself (in church).

3. The change you started already have far-reaching effects. Be ready (in church).

FamilyLife Conference and Marketing the Asians

This past weekend Danny and I attended the FamilyLife "Weekend to Remember" marriage conference in Durham. It was our first and although we're newlyweds we went also in support of our new friends Kegan and Kozue who are engaged. They are in our Sunday school class and Wednesday night small group.

If you're married, I highly recommend you do this as a couple as least once. (Your experience will vary from conference to conference depending on your speakers, but the material is the same.)

I would be remiss if I did not mention that Danny and I had sorta a bad attitude about going as we just did not want to give up ANOTHER Saturday. But it was a great experience and we enjoyed it so much we even showed up for the Sunday sessions.

I am usually skeptical of these types of venues --- they seem very "formulaic" and I am gifted in the area of being critical so that just went hand in hand.

I knew it was going to be a good conference when all the printed materials/audio visuals, etc. had an Asian couple. YES! I knew it all along! Asians are better at marriage and NOW FamilyLife was making it known.

Okay maybe not.

Anyway, no matter how short or long you've been married, or no matter how much you think you got it together as a couple, this conference is still for you.
