Set the stage at 5:00 on Sunday. We've got to pull out the orchestra pit and set up the risers so feel free to come early.

Bring Your Sharpie
We'll be writing our favorite scriptures on the house on Sunday, so bring your Sharpie with you to church. The text is from Deut. 6: "Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates."

Value of the Month: Be on Time
Last week I was working on some music in my office and totally lost track of time. Usually I set an alarm for meetings because I can easily get lost in a project. I showed up to a meeting 10 minutes late and immediately apologized. No excuse.

It's always easier on everyone when the offender apologizes up front. It deflates the tension from the conversation and ultimately relationship stronger if the apology is sincere. So, in the words of Mark Twain: "Always acknowledge a fault. This will catch those in authority off their guard, and will give you an opportunity to commit more." :)
