Hey guys   So I have the honor of performing a wedding this weekend.  I did another for a friend back in June.  Weddings, they are a funny thing, a human tradition to join a man and woman and yet I believe that it’s a tradition that God likes and even honors.  In order for me to do a ceremony I want the couple to come in for at least 5 sessions of pre-marriage “counsel”  (as at least 6 of you know…).  During these sessions the primary focus is to enhance communication.  This is so key in any relationship (not just the romantic ones) learning to say what you intend to say, learning to hear what he/she intended to say and filtering everything –coming in and going out.  It will improve your relationships, I promise.      James 1:19 (NLT)  My dear brothers and sisters, be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. So the last couple are really close friends, pretty cool cuz we could dig in.  Had some passionate discussions right in my office.  This couple I didn’t know all that well and honestly, I hope they talk about the issues outside my office because in my office was pretty quite.  I don’t care if its your brother, your girlfriend or your mom, communication its good stuff.   Hey this Sunday we are doing 9-11 ten years later.  We will be making some observations, pretty casual, hope to see you at 9:54!!   Love you all             Devin
