VBS gets better and better!

Joseph was pursued by a married woman; David pursued a married woman.
Joseph was tempted by a beautiful woman; David was tempted by a beautiful woman.
Joseph was a mere slave; David was a king with a public life to uphold
Joseph probably didn’t have too many women to choose from; David could have any woman he wanted
Here are 10 highlights from this week of VeggieTales VBS at our church, not in any order:
1. As part of the Bible story theater, the children saw a dramatization of Jesus walking on water. “Wow! Who can that be?” the leader asked the kids. Amazingly, the kids answered correctly – Jesus. “Jesus” is a Chinese guy wearing a white plastic table cloth with some kind of blue cloth strapped around him, walking on chairs with blue cloth draped over them. You gotta have a vivid imagination here at VBS!
If you live in Walnut, CA like i do, I’m sure you’ve been stuck at the railroad track more than a few times.
You approach the tracks at 45 mph and suddenly, the red lights starts flashing at the gates. You try speeding up, but you’re too far to make it across the tracks. You are forced to stop at the gates at the railroad tracks.
It’s bigger than Black Friday.
A Chick-Fil-A is opening 1 mile from my house tomorrow, and at every Chick-Fil-A grand opening, they offer the first 100 customers 52 Chick-Fil-A meals.
I wouldn’t mind a free chicken sandwich a week for a year.
Would you camp 24 hours for 52 free Chick-Fil-A meals?
I was not a great fan of Alvin and the Chipmunks, but after the movie, I am now a fan.
The cartoon was not that cute, but the CGIs of Alvin, Simon and Theodore were really cute. We all fell in love with chubby Theodore. I want to take him home and tuck him into bed with me.
Randy Pausch died yesterday.
In his famous last lecture, he said he had two childhood dreams.
I remarked to my son that I couldn’t think of what my childhood dreams were. Maybe I didn’t any dreams that I passionately pursued.
My son said, “Maybe that’s why you haven’t accomplished anything.”
My mother-in-law makes mochi – yummy!
You too, can make mochi – in 30 minutes or less. Try it.
(you can fast forward if it gets slow…)
A talking animal, a flying human, a house grows out of the ground – these I call miracles. Events that are impossible as defined by our experiences and by what we know of how the world works are definitely miracles.
Are there other types of miracles?
When the probability of something happening is so low that if it happens, wouldn’t they be miracles?
A commercial said:
Five years from now, anything can happen…you could learn French…
I don’t know what they were advertising, but it made me think…5 years from now…
Five years is not a lot of time, yet, it is enough time to make a difference.
I can learn to speak another language in 5 years..
