So this is me at Walmart changing out a bad starter. The blue tarp was protecting me somewhat from the standing water. I had just finished Christmas shopping late the night before when the starter stopped working. Of course I tried every trick in the book to get it going from trying to start it over and over again, to pulling my serpentine belt to change the engine position.Nothing I tried

As I was reading Blue Like Jazz today, I came across the section in chapter 9 about belief. Don writes about how he would never get married because he would be afraid of his wife leaving him because she watched a certain TV show or if she saw him naked or something. The response of his friend is, "When a relationship is right, it is no more possible to wake up and want out of the marriage than

The Seattle Space NeedleWell I have the best wife in the world. For my birthday she booked our family seats at the Seattle Space Needle. I can hardly believe that construction was finished on the building way back in 1962 for the Worlds Fair. In my opinion it was a very well thought out building that has withstood the tests of time...Ok so 47 years but still a very cool place to visit.By the

Better Late than NeverWell, I thought I would fill you all in on my trip to Montana in February 09. Why did you get to go to Montana you may ask? Well I'm glad you asked that question. So I was sitting at my computer in my office doing the ministry email thing when I get this email that says, "Free trip to Montana with other Bellevue Youth pastors". I immediately rolled my eyes and deleted

Well this is what my shirt looked like after my first day of working out. I cant believe I have been making this sweat mark for over a month already. Running everyday has totally been a huge challenge for me. I Have built endurance but I still get whooped by my wife whenever we jog together.If you don't jog with your spouse I really recommend it. Running has brought Pris and I closer together.

I was in my sophomore year of college when the news hit the big screen in the lower Johnson Center of Cascade College. I remember thinking, "This is a big deal" and yet not really knowing how big of a deal it really was. However I got a clearer picture of the magnitude of this event in history class.His name really was Dr. Gross. Our history teacher who in the classroom took no nonsense and

Well I guess I'm one of those Christian basher's now. I found these videos on my friend, Ryan's blog and thought I needed to share them too. Thanks Ryan. I wish I could say that I have never been where these guys are at. Unfortunately though I'm embarrassed to admit that I have been stupid for Jesus. Sometimes I think, "Isn't it OK to be a cheeseball for Jesus?" But then I look at myself from

This next Item doesn't have as cool of a story as the last one but it is still a fairly enjoyable memory.When I go to garage sales I often don't have a lot of time.

I have been trying to come up with words to describe my experience of seeing the happening. So I will start with the beginning. Let me establish that I like M. Night Shyamalan. First I saw The Sixth Sense... Not too bad with a good twist at the end. I really liked the movie Signs which also gave a good twist at the end. Then I watched The Village and thought, "that was interesting" but

There is a new website up and running www.youvebeenleftbehind.com where you can actually send mail to your "lost" friends who have been "Left behind" after "the rapture". Lots of quotation marks today. For a small fee of $40 a year you too can have e-mail sent to those who you feel would be left behind and lost should the rapture happen.All I can say is WOW!

In my opinion Guitar Hero is one of the funnest games out there right now. I love the classic rock mixture with video gaming, it rocks!Lately though Liam has wanted to test his mad guitar skills on the game insisting after every song that dad plays that "It's my turn now." at first he didn't do so well especially when we let him just play on career mode. But just today, in practice mode on his

As we left the house Valentines day morning, the house was a wreck, Dad was bringing the boy to daycare and then rushing to work, and mom too was on her way out the door to her job.Little did Mom know that Dad was planning something special. After dropping off the boy at day care, dad fought through the crowd of men at the rose stand at Costco and then headed home to set up his surprise.

My wife said, "Why don't we try and save some money this year and cut down a Christmas tree? It would be a really fun memory for Liam." I thought that it would be a good idea too. The only thing was that my wife had to work the day we got the tree.Mine and Liam's trip started out at Home Depot. We had the wrong type of saw for a Christmas tree so I decided to go to Home Depot and pick me up a

My sleep even seems different. when I wake up in the morning, not knowing if I was snoring, because you are gone this weekend, i feel alone.Not eating healthy, no one to make my smoothies I eat some toast and butter and feel alone.Gazing at the wasteland, I forget our favorite thing, to drink coffee together and talk about the day.now hours behind, I put in one

We just purchased a new vacuum from Costco. It sucks really good. It's called the Hoover rewind we got it for $15 off at Costco. The cool thing about it is that we don't have to open all the windows because it smells the apartment up like burnt rubber like our old vacuum did whenever we ran it. I do have to give a shout out to Cascade College though, for purchasing our first vacuum for us as a

Well I'm not sure how it happened, but somehow it did. I'm fat. There I said it...you happy? It's really weird because as I live and breath i don't feel like i am as fat as the pictures say. But pictures don't lie and the other part of this is that 3 people at my sister-in-laws wedding told me that I was fat to my face. "my you are starting to look like your granddad."

Sometimes we don't have a dime to our name, but somehow we are able to scrounge up a $1.50 for a Kosher hot dog AAAANND a coke!Probably my favorite food there is the pepperoni pizza.

Well we gave it a shot. No one can say we didn't try. It was your head. It just had to many leaks in it. Sometimes you just have to say goodbye to your loved ones and let them go to the junk yard. So I put her back together and she ran great for about a week. But the compression was too great for the new head gasket and for some reason it blew again. 1 month of work down the drain. But

I just love Cheese! I'm not sure why it is so amazing. Actually the thought eating something that is made with "Curds" is truly disgusting. And also what about the fact that you have to actually let this stuff sit and "age" adds to the question, "Who thought up cheese?"The answer is, I don't care who thought up cheese because it is just so good!

John 2:23-2523 Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the miraculous signs he was doing and believed in his name. 24 But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all men. 25 He did not need man's testimony about man, for he knew what was in a man.

What am I missing?Zech 5:5-115 Then the angel who was speaking to me came forward and said to me, "Look up and see what this is that is appearing."6 I asked, "What is it?"He replied, "It is a measuring basket."

Stephanie had a CT scan on Nov 22 and it showed a very good response to the last chemo and shrank the remaining tumors by about half. We are very happy and her counts are up, her breathing is great and she feels good and can get out and participate in some holiday activities.

Recently my life group was able to go see the Dead Sea scrolls at the Pacific Science Center . When we arrived, I was amazed to see a line of people waiting to get Sold Out tickets to the event. I have always assumed that it wasn’t cool to go see stuff like the Dead Sea scrolls because they are connected to “evil” Christianity, a religion that is exclusive to all other religions. But regardless

Fig TreeIs That All it Takes? What did it take for you to believe? Was it the fact that someone showed you the Gospel in the Bible, or maybe you just felt it pressed upon your heart after hearing sermons and lessons about the saving power of Jesus? Whatever it was that made you believe in Christ your belief in His message was a leap of faith. I have never really noticed the disciple,

Wide Awake! Oh yeah, check these pythons out! What are you looking at? Group hug!Liam Douglas Bristow-Hanna was born June 9th at 1:15 pm at Overlake Hospital. He is so much more precious and beautiful than me and Priscilla ever dreamed. After 14 hours of contractions, no sleep, and 1 hour of good solid labor I wasn't sure if I was cut out to be a dad. But somehow God has given Priscilla and I our

God Remembers I was 12 years old and we had just finished watching the movie “Robin Hood Prince of Thieves” and we were on our way outside when I saw her… She was just about 5 years old standing right outside the doors to the movie theater in down town Vancouver. As I held my dad’s hand out of the theatre I saw that this girl had no hand to hold, as a matter of fact she was crying

This week Priscilla (my wife) is filling in as Secretary. I think that is pretty cool! Besides the obvious benefits...we have worked pretty well together. I cant say that everyday we agree 100% on how ministry should look, but we work that out.
