Friday is for Family . . . and Chick-fil-A! I try to figure out on Friday’s (my day off) how to get us to Chick-fil-A for breakfast as often as possible. I even make up excuses to be in town to have some chicken goodness. These dudes have a new Chick-fil-A tribute video that is awesome! Rivals the greatness of the Tim Hawkins parody! Enjoy!
One of my really good friends is Brad Daily. The boys and I are watching the Montreal Canadians 100 year anniversary celebration game and I am thinking of he and his bride, Nora.
I first met him while I was serving at Hopedale Baptist Church in Ozark, MO. He was a huge help to me in the student ministry as well as traveling companion on several trips, basketball watching, golf playing, early morning music store line crashing, and baby photographer when Taylor boy was born!(I know that really wasn’t even a sentence!)
He took an interest in video production and web development while he was living in Nixa, MO. He then served several summers on staff with World Changers, a ministry of the North American Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention (wow, we have some long names in SBC life, don’t we?). While he was doing World Changers, he met some folks that had ties to the Kansas Nebraska Convention of Southern Baptists. They offered him a position as a media guru (probably not his actual title) in their office in Topeka. During that same year, Jenny and I felt called to plant a church in Nixa. Brad created a promotional video for our church plant. We are eternally grateful for his hard work on it.
Then, to go a step or two more, he built us several different websites for the church. He is an amazing developer and brilliant with web developing (as you can tell from SlideShowPro Director.)
How did he get to Montreal? Well, it is a pretty long story, but basically, he had several friends from Kansas-Nebraska, World Changers, and NAMB that got him up there. Then he stayed, fell in love, and the rest….you know the drill.
This past fall, he and his beautiful bride, Nora moved to Nixa, MO. (Nora and Brad met and married while Brad was serving as the communications director of the Canadian National Baptist Convention.) Make sure you check out Nora’s blog to record all of the fun details of a “Greek-Armenian-Canadian, french speaking Montreal native” living in the “sticks” in the Ozarks!
He has continued to be a very good friend all the way to Montreal, Canada by way of Kansas and back to the Ozarks. (Check out some of his handywork on e-quip.net. and his recent venture at SlideShowPro.net and SlideShowPro Director.)
Anyway, Let’s GO HABS!! And let’s hear it for friends!!

Friday is for…FUNNY!
This post is really well worth the read from my friend and blood drive coordinator, Jeff Houghton. This dude is hilarious! He and his Skinny Improv crew came out and did an annual banquet for us at Finley Crossings and made me laugh so hard my side hurt!
Here is a bit of the post for an appetizer…Thanks for the laugh, Jeff!!
I started to wonder what it would be like if Facebook was around throughout history. What if they had all been friends? I wonder what their News Feed would be like? I’ve heard of a similar thing people have done with Twitter, so it’s not a totally original idea. But, this time it’s Facebook…totally different.
