Trip Lee- To Live is Christ
I have a lot of respect for Trip Lee and Lecrae for being gospel-centered and even expositional in their rap/hip-hop music. From what I understand, their concerts are an awesome testimony to the power of the Gospel. Check out the vid:

Psalm 32- the best Psalm ever written?

It is told of Martin Luther that one day being asked which of all the Psalms were the best, he made answer, Psalmi Paulini (Psalms that have an Apostle Paul flavor), and when his friends pressed to know which these might be, he said,

"The 32nd, the 51st, the 130th, and 143rd. For they all teach that the forgiveness of our sins comes without the law and without works to the man who believes, and therefore I call them Pauline Psalms."

A Christmas to Remember

Hudson decided to surprise GiGi, GiDaddy, Joel and Nanny on Christmas day- as we were supposed to be there on the evening of the 26th. We drove all night (10 hours) on Christmas Eve to surprise them (without getting shot entering their house at 6:15 am). Here's a snapshot of our Christmas . . . one that we will all remember for a long time. It's a bit pixelated, but I think you get the picture.

The dance of sermon prep

This walk, this dance;
Holy & sacred, joyful & true;
Weaving through the Word-
Loving every moment, loving You.

Praise You for Your faithfulness!
Valleys, hilltops, shadows & light;
You have not remained silent!
You have proven your might!

Use me. Use this-
Reading, meditating, seeking Christ out-
To build Your Church;
To make You proud.

I'm a Single Lady- and I'll be single for a long time . . .

For the 4 of you who haven't seen this yet- I haven't laughed this hard at a video since Scarlett Takes a Tumble. Check it out:

Don't Waste Your Life

God has gifted His people with unique talents and gifts- all for one purpose: Express the Gospel. Lecrae shares the gospel through hip hop and rap. I found this video on a blog post on the Gospel Coalition website.
