Into the Fire

 

This morning's skit explored the story of the three Hebrew boys and King Nebuchadnezzar, and the fiery furnace too.  Only, instead of a giant statue, the king's royal subjects were made to bow down to a ...

...yes, a giant tater tot.  It was a full morning here at KidPak with our continuation of our series.  It's been fun, and we're hitting these Bible stories with a lot of energy.  Josh has made some great videos and the whole atmosphere has been fun.  We even had time to refer to teh Veggie Tales song... "The bunny... the bunny... oh, I love the bunny..."

Of course, there's the revival going on.  We had another service planned tonight, so instead of going home, we instead went out to eat at Texas Roadhouse between the last morning service and that evening one.  It was packed there, and the wait was a little longer, but we had another really good meal.  They do steak very well there.  Maddie had chicken with a lot of hot sauce involved.  But she likes the atmosphere there, as do we.

We got back to the church early enough, and had ourselves a meeting with one of the cast members for the Christmas play, and that went pretty well.  And after that, church.  It was an amazing service, and I'm glad Maddie was there for another night of the revival.  The crowd cheered when it was announced that we'd be going on for another three nights at least, yes, right up until Wednesday night.  

The service was a beautiful moment, the songs of worship filling that sanctuary, which was so packed that we had many students actually seated on the stage and around the altar.  There was such a hunger there, and we were so honored to be there for it.

Look at this full moon and the fountains on the way out of the church there, walking to the car.  Maddie snapped this shot with her cell phone.  We got home, and it was late - and we were pretty tired, of course.  We read, and we prayed and we got a good night's rest afterwards.  It was an unforgettable day.
