Last day of study and writing-first some weekly planning, then back to note taking. # Day one of our Pastors’ planning retreat-long range look at our ministry. Should be a fun and lively discussion. # Glorious Trinity, impress the gospel on my soul, until it’s virtue diffuses every faculty. # wow-been a long week and a half. Finished a great Pastors’ planning session Mon-Tues. Prepping for tonight’s lesson on the book of Psalms. # Good, exciting,eventful, and long day-one day I’ll give the details-glad to be going to bed-another eventful day around the corner. # Headed out for the first event of the day-trusting God’s grace to provide all that is best. # Brie is helping make her b-day cake, she’s 2 today: http://twitpic.com/137tc # Enjoying a day off-the first in two weeks-I could get used to extreme laziness. # Headed outside with the fam to pick fruit off the trees-it’s a balmy 75 out. # We picked 5 bags of tangelos and 2 bags of oranges-everything we didn’t get the past two weeks-had a yummy lunch-now time for a nap. # Looks like my last tweet posted a few hours after I sent it-how will the Twitter world keep up with me? # Powered by Twitter...

Planning my week next week-looks like a week of study and writing. Not much other than that. # My Twitemperature is an ice cold 31°F (-1°C)! http://twitemperature.com/bcapranica # Now this is telling: http://tweetstats.com/graphs/bcapranica # To church-worship and fellowship with the Lord and His people around His word-really looking forward to the day. # Home from a wonderful morning of fellowship with the church-time for lunch with the fam. # Had a good afternoon and evening with the church-Justin preached a good (and long) exposition of 1 Cor 3:10-15. Now to catch up with Kel. # Just arrived at TMS to begin a week of study and writing-woohoo! # Headed in for day 2 if study and writing-yesterday was a very productive day-hopefully I’ll say the same about today. # Great lunch with @johnwmartin-thanks for the fellowship, John! Now back to the basement and the all exciting task of editing and writing # Listening to: VIVALDI – Violin Concerto Op.8/1, RV 269, I love Vivaldi! http://tinyurl.com/7rh9b9 # Starting day 3 of writing and study-finished editing 2 chapters so far-begin working on writing a new chapter today. # About to take off for day four of the writing week. # Traffic was terrible getting to TMS-but I’m here and ready to get started. # Just finished lunch in my old stomping grounds-Granada Hills & Two Guys from Italy. Wrote 10 pages this morning-time to get back to it. # Hard at it for day 5 of study/writing week. Finished 20 of 35 pages on chapter 3. Reading and note taking today. # Powered by Twitter...

Just WHIPPED Kel and Court at Mexican Train. They went to bed sore losers-I’m all by myself now. # Time to pray, plan out next week and then work on my sermon for tomorrow evening-Rom 15:1-6. # Off to the gym-wow do I need to work off my Christmas indulgence. # Time for a quick lunch and then back to the sermon. # Playing with a doll house-well assisting in playing with a doll house http://twitpic.com/x6uc # Put the kids down and thinking that Kel and Court need to be schooled in Mexican Train again. # To you who are about to die, we salute you: http://twitpic.com/x7wi # If my score were my IQ I would be the dumbest at the table (in other words, the girls just got whipped AGAIN). # Checking the headlines and starting the day. We have only one service this morning and no Sunday School-communion tonight. # Prayer then reviewing sermon notes for tonight, preparing for the service this morning. Really looking forward to the day. # Had an enjoyable time at church this morning-I really enjoy singing with a packed house-looking forward to the Lord’s Table this evening. # Just finished reading Carson’s Christ and Culture Revisited. An excellent, stimulating, biblically balanced book. Now to review for tonight. # Kel and Court are gluttons for punishment-they actually want to play Mexican Train again-let the whipping begin. # Court won tonight by a few points-but I still have them with our three night combined score-one more round tomorow-ask Kel how she’s doing. # Time to start the day-prayer then some reading-Newton’s book on Elders...

Kids in the bath, dad is working on his sermon manuscript. # Going to do some reading from Carson’s Christ and Culture Revisited-then to bed. # Up to engage another day-prayer and tweaking the sermon on tap first. # Watching ‘On Evangelism: From an Atheist’ at Vodpod http://tinyurl.com/78sfy5 # Just had a great time with Pops and LeLe (Kel’s Dad and Step-Mom). They brought us all some wonderful gifts. Now to final sermon prep. # Ready to cap off the Lord’s Day in fellowship with His people. # So I’m here at church bugging @chadmartin as he’s redoing my and Stacy’s sermons-making them sound better-sounds like miracle working to me # Up to begin the day-since it is a short week sermon prep is on the agenda all day. # Listening to: Handel: Messiah, HWV 56 – Overture http://tinyurl.com/9×4748 # Headed to the gym-my mind needs the distraction, and my body needs the workout-hoping for some mental and physical energy afterward. # Ok-back to sermon Study: Romans 15:1-6. # Family time – Jade won’t be back until next weekend-wow what a difference the noise level is with only...
