Pete is the Senior Pastor at <a href="http://www.crosspoint.tv/">CrossPoint Church In Nashville</a>. I had the pleasure of meeting Pete at Connections in Nashville two years ago. <br /><br />Today Pete posted <a href="http://withoutwax.tv/2009/11/12/running-on-e/">a super thought on running on E...spiritually</a>.<br /><br />Enjoy.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1351436968027495412-1719261602606499385?l=westmeadeyoungcouples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jason Echolshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07030073920059854112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351436968027495412.post-38376365755357284042009-11-04T10:10:00.003-06:002009-11-04T10:17:27.080-06:00Hey, everyone.<br /><br />Just tagging up.<br /><br />Hopefully all of you who have been battling sickness are doing better.<br /><br />If you have a pocket calendar, BlackBerry, iPhone or the like, I suggest bringing them to class Sunday. There are a lot of activities on the calendar for November. Not just for the class, but also in other areas of the church that we are all involved in like Choir, Refuge, Awanas, etc.<br /><br />For example, this week, for the choir members in the class, there is a long form rehearsal this Friday (6 November) from 6:30 to 8:30pm.<br /><br /><br />Let's also plan to talk a few minutes about another date to meet for lunch after church. And we will also start working on the gameplan for a class Christmas Party.<br /><br />Also continue to pray for those for whom we have been praying for. Please remember Dana's grandfather, Mr. Bodley specifically this week. He should be returning home from the hospital in the next day or so. So continue to pray for his general health.<br /><br />Tag me on Facebook, Twitter (@jasonechols) or email with any thoughts or questions.&nbsp; Or simply comment below.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1351436968027495412-3837636575535728404?l=westmeadeyoungcouples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jason Echolshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07030073920059854112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351436968027495412.post-18703251822224172902009-10-20T13:49:00.001-05:002009-10-20T13:49:20.043-05:00From Jennifer Baker - Fellowship Coordinator<br /><br />Just a reminder that this Sat. is our SS <b>COSTUME</b> progressive dinner.&nbsp; If you are planning on attending and I have not talked to you yet please let me know so we can prepare for food.<br /><br />We will be starting at our house at <b>5:30pm</b> for freaky pizza fondue and spooky spirits punch.&nbsp; Then we will be moving on to the Echols for chili and hot dogs for the kids.&nbsp; We will end our evening at the Starnes for sweet treats and a bonfire. <br /><br />If you have any questions of need directions please fill free to contact me.<br /><br />Hope to see you all there.<br /><span style="color: #888888;"><br />Jennifer</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1351436968027495412-1870325182222417290?l=westmeadeyoungcouples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jason Echolshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07030073920059854112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351436968027495412.post-56049741297804627402009-09-30T10:15:00.000-05:002009-09-30T10:15:25.737-05:00Brandon tweeted this morning that Dana is out of surgery.

He is a little outside of the box for most Spiritual thinkers, but he often has Spiritual observations that just strike me in a profound way.<br /><br />Today he weighed in on the Kanye West vs. Taylor Swift drama with an observation about true forgiveness. In it, he also makes himself vulnerable.<br /><br />I'll let Carlos finish making the point...<br /><br /><a href="http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2009/09/kanyes-a-joke/">http://www.ragamuffinsoul.com/2009/09/kanyes-a-joke/</a><br /><br />Remember that we are planning to eat as a class after church at Ryan's on the Beltline. I look forward to seeing you there.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1351436968027495412-6083349456125447178?l=westmeadeyoungcouples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jason Echolshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07030073920059854112noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351436968027495412.post-85299951930775393982009-09-10T08:49:00.002-05:002009-09-10T09:15:14.836-05:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XRfqmaEbqOk/SqkCm3zJLiI/AAAAAAAAABY/xSIiokuPbDU/s1600-h/mini-golf.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XRfqmaEbqOk/SqkCm3zJLiI/AAAAAAAAABY/xSIiokuPbDU/s320/mini-golf.jpg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: inherit;">Don't Forget!!!</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"></div><div style="font-family: inherit;">September Birthday Bash!!!</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"></div><div style="font-family: inherit;">Friday September 11th 6:30pm</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br />&nbsp;<a href="http://www.golfshores.net/">Golf Shores Mini Golf&nbsp;</a></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br />&nbsp;2015 Westmeade St SW (just off the intersection of Westmead and The Beltline)</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"></div><div style="font-family: inherit;"></div><br /><span style="font-family: inherit;">&nbsp;Look forward to seeing all of you there</span>.<br /><br />...J<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1351436968027495412-8529995193077539398?l=westmeadeyoungcouples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jason Echolshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07030073920059854112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351436968027495412.post-85805895703624486212009-09-07T14:37:00.000-05:002009-09-07T14:37:48.885-05:00Welcome to the blog for the Westmeade Young Couples class.<br /><br />Here you will be able to find all kinds of information about the class.<br /><br />In the margin on the right, I will try to keep current information about the breakfast schedule, the next lesson and other upcoming events up for reference any time.<br /><br />I will also keep all of you posted on information regarding upcoming events in the main blog.<br /><br />I will also be posting stuff that I find in my reading during the week that I think might interest you.<br /><br />Please drop me an email with any comments or suggestions.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Jason<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1351436968027495412-8580589570362448621?l=westmeadeyoungcouples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jason Echolshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07030073920059854112noreply@blogger.com0
