How would you describe your level of Christian faith?
My faith defines me
Share your testimony
I was a great "Christian" kid growing up--doing the youth meetings, etc., but one thing was missing--I didn't have Christ. Secretly, I made fun of everybody at my church, calling them foolish for believing in what felt like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. When I turned 16 or so, I was given the freedom to stop going, and I did. I thought our preacher was a fraud (I still do, actually, but that's a long story).

It was not until my father was sent to war in 2003 that I really started to examine what I held dear. A friend of mine, challenged to me to read a couple of books, and while I was camping by myself in June, 2003, I decided to give my life to Christ.

I was amazed by how quickly, and how powerfully, Satan attacked me. However, at the same time, I had the first real friends in this walk that helped me through. I have grown to where my decisions are made with an eye toward the heavenly.

The most embarrassing thing I ever did was:
Falling down in front of a packed gym at a wrestling tournament when I was a senior in High School.
I believe...
in God the Father, maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son, our Lord.

August 20, 2009

That day will never be the same. Early in the morning, my wife called me to have me take her to the hospital. Her contractions were coming in regularly, every 5 minutes or so at first, then every 3 minutes. At first, when we got there, we thought they were going to send her home as she wasn't as dilated as we expected, but that changed a short time later. She was admitted and we called all of our friends. We were surrounded with people who love us, and we began a very scary time.

Aunalie was ve… Continue

Check out the newest addition to the Jason N. Marchand Memorial

Dale Clay, along with Marla Oppenheimer and Scott Brown, known collectively as The DaMar Project, will be appearing at Cline Stansberry Stadium in West Union, WV, on June 20, 2007, with headliners, Cadence.

You can hear some of Dale and Marla's music at www.myspace.com/3pursuing1.

Some of Cadence's early demos (Wes, the guitar player, has told me that they are working on recording an EP that will have better quality recordings, possibly for distribution at the walk) are on my front page.

Jason Marchand Memorial--Update

We are now having two bands playing at our memorial fundraiser this year. Cadence will be headlining, and the opening guest will be Dale Clay, who will play a largely accoustic set.

We are looking forward to bringing the Lord forward in our remembrance of my little brother. As we approach Memorial Day, let us never forget that thousands have died for our freedom, and One has died for our soul.

In other news, I will be picking up baby brother Richard from the Dayton, OH, airport next Friday. It… Continue

My God is ALIVE and GOOD!

Sunday was a great day. Those of you who have been following my blog, you know how we've been challenged. We have been told by doctors that our new baby may not live, we've heard folks speak the same thing in agreement with the doctors, etc...

However, we have a great God. We have a GOOD God.

The great thing about the Lord is that He communicates with us, and does so frequently. Sometimes He will do it directly, sometimes by giving a word to others. Aunalie and I have experienced both recently… Continue

News

Aunalie got a call from the doctor today. We were told that they would only call with good news.

That's the thing about doctors. They often lie.

They called to say that the MRI that Aunalie had Monday confirmed what they were thinking. Except this time, instead of saying that the baby didn't have any kidneys, this time they said "not fully developed."

I say phooey on doctors.

I know that my God is bigger than all of this. I know that my Jesus died to make me whole. I know that whatever the o… Continue
