Return!


We got back from playing the University of Wyoming in Laramie two weekends ago, but I'm not sure we've really gotten back. You know? I may only be able to speak for myself, but we were so well received and taken care of, the thought crossed my mind of staying for longer. Not to mention, one of the guys Jonny and I stayed with did a backflip on a slackline, and another one climbed 18 mountains over 14,000 feet. All this summer. Yeah.

There were so many people interested in starting an IJM Chapter at UW, we couldn't have been more pleased. I was amazed in all our discussions to see people's heart for justice in our day. It's a worthy cause, no doubt, but any time we're allowed to see real passion, especially passion for the freedom of others, it's a beautiful thing. And my, this weekend was.

Here's a video of 1. A tragic accident at the airport. and 2. Curtis and Grace's baby Harper on her 5 month birthday, overcoming an obstacle that she had never before encountered. Behold.





Oh, and The Betty's (our hosts and musical partners) are amazing.
