Today is the day! It's a little hard to believe, but the day has arrived at last and all the cylinders in the machine are going at full tilt. There's bustling activity everywhere I look, but just want to step back and throw a curve ball, and take a slightly different angle in this post.
In a culture and society that's so media charged and there's so much eye candy in the movies and TV to engage us, it's a breath of fresh air to know excellence, humor, and an intriguing program aren't relegated only to the secular media. Our society (and our campus) isn't one to credit religion--much less Christians--with innovative entertainment, thought-provoking content, or stuff thrown on stage and on the big screen so good it'll make you laugh til you cry (and still avoid the crass edge of what passes for accepted entertainment).
I, for one, am thankful that all of you invited are coming to something I'm proud of putting on stage, prepared and ready for public consumption not only because it communicates a message, but that it does so in an engaging, fun, and attractive way. I'm really looking forward to the Welcome Night, from the moment I pick up the Korean barbecue with my hands, to the closing moments as we all stream out of Wheeler Auditorium.
