Get in The Loop!


I serve in a ministry at Lifechurch.tv called, "The Loop". This is an experience room within Life Kids for 5th and 6th graders. A lot of our ministry is focused first on leading the kids to become fully devoted followers of Christ and second, to prepare for the transition into SWITCH which is our youth program.



The Loop is very strategically designed for this specific age group. The order of our experience, small groups, and worship are set up as tools for volunteers to reach these kids with the message of Christ. In our leader training we learn the psychology of this age group as well as the importance of consistency. For a lot of these kids in South Oklahoma City, we are virtually the closest to a parent figure they might have in their lives right now. Since 5th grade is a major drop off point in the church, we are trained to pick a service, pick a group, pick a friend, and stick to it.

I have volunteered in the Loop for close to two years now. My role is called a council member. I work closely with one of the Switch pastors, Dedra, and two other council members, Mike and Drue. Mainly, I am responsible for delegating various responsibilities to our leaders. About once a month I deliver a closing message and prayer to each service. (We have 5 services in the Loop per weekend.) I also make sure my services run smooth as a baby's bottom.

I am in love with this ministry, and I'm confident that any of my students would agree with that. I am a firm believer that if your kid is happy at church, then you will come back. I also believe in the power of kid to parent ministry. If something sparks spiritually inside of a child, mom and dad will find out about it and become open in their own hearts, too.
I also love watching as families grow closer to God together within Life Kids. I can't wait to have babies and experience that too!

Baby Phillips

Lisa and Justin are due in December to have baby Levi.
We had so much fun taking these pictures of my future baby cousin.
This really is the best time of the year for outdoor photos. The lighting is warm and temperatures aren't too testy.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Today my husband gave me a Holga for my birthday!! A red one!
It is kind of weird that I didn't already have one. I have just always borrowed everyone's instead.
I love this camera because of it's utter-simplicity. The mechanics and settings include only what is essential for taking a photograph. The body and lens are made of plastic. The camera requires two AA batteries...which I love. It uses as much energy as a TV remote. My husband also got me a couple rolls of medium format film. Awesome! I am so excited to show everyone my photos!!
Yes, look forward.

The Quirks of Berk

My brother, Eric, started the band Berkeley to D.C. when he was in junior high. The name comes from a scene in Forest Gump when Jenny gets on a bus headed to D.C. (you know, when Forest says, "I think you should go home to Greenbow, Alabama!"). Eric has truly inspired me with his life. Ever since we were little kids we have been bouncing our creativity off of each other. When Eric first picked up a guitar, not only did he teach himself how to play it, but we all discovered his natural ability to shine. A couple nights ago Berkeley was able to open for a band called Lydia. This was Lydia's last show and tour in OKC. Eric and everyone else in Berkeley were stoked to be able to participate in the event.

Here are some pictures:
*small disclaimer-There is also a keyboardist in the band not shown in the photos. My crowd position would not allow it.







Eric will be a superstar one day. To me, he will always be the little kid who never understood the concept of clothing, the best person to share bunk-beds with, and the brat who gave me Chicken Pox! Yup. I love this kid.

A Napa Valley Love Story

Last weekend was our honeymoon in Napa Valley. We spent a couple days in San Francisco, too. Napa was beautiful. We rented a convertible for the trip which was awesome. On our last day we went on a bike tour through the valley doing some wine tasting. Biking was hard, but the tasting was pretty easy. The small bistros and quaint community was ever so inviting and warm. We will definitely be going back. It was very romantic.
