3 summer videos

The other day I realized that since late April I have been home (in Budapest) only 3 weeks. Currently we are in the US having just finished attending Campus Crusade’s big staff conference held every other year in Ft. Collins, CO. There is a lot to tell you about that has happened since late April. But for now, I just wanted to point you to a few videos:

ANGRY ATHEISTS DON’T LIKE THE SUNRISE: June was a sabbatical month for me. During one of those weeks EB and I got away to Greece for a week. We asked our Budapest travel agent to send us someplace last minute for a great deal. We got a three star resort on a dusty island in Greece. Days were spent touring and being poolside. It was the first time in 10 years EB and I got away alone for longer than a weekend. While in Greece I filmed the sunrise over some mountains on the Turkish mainland. I uploaded it to our youtube site and added some comments about evidence for a Creator in a sunrise. Some angry atheists added their comments (how did they find the video?). Anyway, here is the video and comments. Feel free to add to the conversation.



CLIMB UP LONG’S PEAK: We took advantage of the only free day in the 10 day Campus Crusade conference to head to the mountains. Ben and I, along with Campus Crusade staff Jerry Hertzler and his son Andrew, climbed the tallest mountain in northern Colorado, Long’s Peak. The 16 mile round trip hike (5000 ft elevation gain) took us over 12 hours. Here is the video.



LIZ AND BEN EMCEE: At the Campus Crusade conference our kids shined. Our daughter Liz, along with her brother Ben, helped emcee a pre-convention smaller conference for USA staff serving overseas. Liz also raised $8000 at the conference for an orphanage in Uganda that she has a heart for. Liz also taught a seminar and was in a recent edition of World Wide Challenge, Campus Crusade’s magazine. Meanwhile EB and I watched the convention from behind a lightpole up in the balcony seats. Here is a video of Liz and Ben emceeing at the conference telling stories of people's responses when they say they live in Hungary.
