Our GCR church family observed our monthly MidWeek at the movies last night, taking in the premier of the new animated flick “King of Kings.” The movie was fine, but the best part of the evening was just eating popcorn, drinking Icees, and hanging out with 150 of our brothers and sisters, almost half of them little kids. Thank you to to all who came out and made last night such a blast!

Whitney and I are leaving right now for the Stars-Jets game in Dallas. I am fearful that the Stars might be hungover from Tuesday’s historic meltdown against Vancouver. It feels like there’s a lot less to play for tonight–they are four points behind Winnipeg, not one or two. First place in the conference and the top seed in the upcoming playoffs is not on the line tonight, only a chance to pull to within two of the division leaders. It would be disappointing, but completely understandable, if the team dragged a bit coming out tonight. But, man, you don’t want any kind of dread or fate hanging over your hockey team when you’re less than two weeks away from the postseason. A huge statement win over the Jets tonight could be a massive boost of confidence and adrenaline for the Stars. That’s my hope.

For the road trip, at least a dozen times hitting ‘play’ on this:

Go Stars!
