CREEPING BACK

After a long hiatus, I am slowly creeping back to the rodneygarcia.com website. Somehow, I have found the inspiration to write again and bring back the passion to blog. Maybe it's because I've been exposing myself to writing. Perhaps, it could be that the books I read push me to be better. Whatever the reason may be, I am training myself to return to blogging.

I am making the site template more delectable to my taste. I hope it will appeal to you too.

More updates soon. Until then, God bless!

CHANGES AT RODNEYGARCIA.COM AND MY LICENSING EXAM

Hello folks!

In the next few weeks, rodneygarcia.com will be going through a make-over. No. Not me but my website (although a personal make-over isn't that bad either.)

Upon prayer and deep thinking, my website will be more than just blogging.

This site will be more than just a blog site as it was for the past two years. The new website will be a place of encouragement, hope and life. I have decided to harness the power of the internet to spread not just the love of God but the uplifting of our soul and spirit.

Here, you will be able to listen to podcasts, watch videos and learn a thing or two about how life can be both challenging and rewarding.

Also, I hope this site becomes a bridge between you and me. I do want to know what you think about the stuff you see here.

Should the site look a bit weird in the next few days, that means you are redirected to my new web host. Still, http://rodneygarcia.blogspot.com will continue to exist.

For now, you can contact me at rodneygarcia@yahoo.com. To read more about the developments, visit http://rodneygarcia.blogspot.com.

Also, I'll be having my licensing exam tomorrow morning at around 8am. So I'd really hope you can pray for me. If I pass this exam, I will be given the 'license' to conduct weddings and marriage ceremonies. Cool huh! Please keep praying for me.

Thanks and may God bless you!

IF YOU CAN READ THIS, THEN SCHEDULE POSTS WORK

I happen to check the "developing" features of BLOGGER. If you happen to read this message, then their new feature of SCHEDULED POST work.

This feature has long been a part of the top five features each blogger wants. Sometimes, you'd like to schedule a post. Now, they are hoping this will be part of the actual features of BLOGGER. I have written this post on April 4, 2008 at 8:50pm. This should be posted at April 5, 2008 at 8AM.

It's just weird that they only thought of having it now. I guess it was timing. They (Blogger) were bought by GOOGLE last year (or was it two years ago) and maybe now was the time for them to do this new feature. Anyway, I am thankful they are working on it now.

If this doesn't post, then BLOGGER has a lot of work to do.

THE NEW WEBSITE

Hello Internet!

It's day three of the I WANNA TALK ABOUT website which is all about..well.. anything. I'm happy about it.

The concept is simple. You go to the website and read the post for the day. Then, react by typing in your comments. Share your insights or maybe an experience or two. Hopefully, we can get an conversation going on.

And I'm happy there are people visiting the site. Unfortunately, I was hoping that people can leave a message. Maybe you're the first one to do so.

Anyway, I'm hoping this site can really move forward.

Thanks for reading and don't forget to visit I WANNA TALK ABOUT... website.

Until then, God bless!

KIDZONE CHURCH IS MOVING

I was suppose to blog last night but was so tired. I was at church the whole day for KIDZONE CHURCH. I'll be turning over the Sunday Service operations to the team leaders.

It's been three weeks since we launched KIDZONE CHURCH at WWCF and it's nothing but fun and excitement. I've been at KZC the whole day Sunday since July 1 and it can get very tiring. But the demands on my body is soothed by the hugs of my kids at KZC. Their smiles and hugs just warm me up and takes my tiredness away.

We're going to be celebrating one month next week. In just three weeks, with God's help, we were able to turn the ministry into a powerhouse ministry. I was told by the ministry's staff and teachers that they never expected this much growth in such a short time. We have 315 kids walking through the doors of the WorshipZone.

I am honored to be surrounded by people of potential. I thrive to be around people who can become better every day. The people who I interact with such as the coaches/teachers, junior coaches and staff and the children who attend KZC have so much potential in them that needs to be extracted in time. I cannot wait for them to start blooming.

I'll be back at the 8AM Sunday service by August. I didn't notice how time fast was.

I'll write some more later. I have some things to do for a while. I'll get back to you.

Until then, God bless.

COMING BACK TO BLOGGING

Hello folks. Ptr. Rodney here.

I am finding my way back to blogging. It has been months since I last put my log here. I've been busy with a lot of things which I will be updating you here. But I believe I have to return to blogging because it's more than just telling a story but telling you how God is so awesome.

On this site, you will get to see new things such as videos and pictures. Hopefully, this website will also be an extension of my personal ministry as a pastor. It is so exciting how technology can bring people together.

These past few months, I have decided to put my email address in my sermons as a way for people to contact me. I thank God because people have responded. They email me with words of encouragement and even asking for some advise or opinion. There have been people I was able to minister to using email. Sometimes, it's very hard to talk face-to-face especially if it's a sensitive topic. That's why people would send me an email. Others live in other countries. So I think it's obvious that they cannot meet me personally.

I hope to post more messages here soon. I'm preparing for a meeting with the KIDZONE CHURCH at 2Pm.

Until then, God bless.

NO DAY-OFF FOR DADDY

Monday is suppose to be a day off for a pastor. Not for me.

My son goes to school and I'm his schoolbus. I bring him to school. So instead of sleeping the whole day, I'm at my office (since his school is near there).

Rafa didn't feel good today so I had to put my doctor cap (paging Dr. Harvey) on. When I got home, I immediately gave Rafa medicine and put him to bed. As for me, I had to hang some laundry upstairs. Afterwards, that's the only time I got to sleep.

I cooked dinner tonight. That makes it twice in a week. Actually, I feel pretty good about it. Hopefully, I'll be able to cook more in the future. It's fun.

Had an opportunity to sit and watch a HBO movie tonight: HELLBOY. I chanced upon the beginning of the movie. I've always wanted to see it. Now, I have the chance. Well, it was a good movie. Lots of action and some realizations. It revolved around the power of a person to decide. We all have that power. It's just that we make wrong decisions. Let's try to make better decisions. We're not the only ones affected with the outcome. It's also the people around us.

Internet connection was restored today. We didn't have any yesterday so I wasn't able to post my MAC blog entry. I just had to post it earlier.

I'm excited about TNW. Attendance is getting bigger. Hopefully, we get to the 1000 person mark by the end of February.

Blogging has helped me with my day. It's like a time of release and reflection. Do people get to read my entries. I don't know. Maybe or maybe not. But, personally, it helps me.

Well, that's all for now. Continue to pray to God for guidance. We need him more today. God bless.

MY FIRST POST FOR 2007 (and other things I wanna say)

Happy New Year to all! I hope you had a great holiday. I've spent a great amount of my 2 week Christmas vacation with my family. Now, it's back to work.

I've decided to make some goals for this year which I hope to discuss here in the near future. But one of the things I would like to achieve is to faithfully blog.

I used to blog before but somehow life got a little busier. But one thing about blogging is that I get to release and relax my mind. Believe me. It needs some relaxing. But I'm hoping that this year, I will be able to blog often (hopefully everyday). I'll be typing in my exploits, events and milestones. I'm hoping also that people will read it.

I have a busy schedule ahead of me. I'll be preparing for the BIG TNW weeks ahead. After all the praying, preparation and promotion, the THURSDAY NIGHT WORSHIP of WORD FOR THE WORLD will push. It's going to be about six Thursdays packed with practical and life-changing teachings that we hope to share. If you are interested in coming, please visit wordfortheworld.com and take a look at the schedules.

2006 has been a great year for me. A lot of achievements both in ministry and in my personal life. I've grown in all areas of my life. I've realized things that matter most. I have seen things that I should let go and things that must remain in me. I'm looking forward to 2007. Amidst the predictions that it will be a bad year (as always predicted annually), it will be a great year for those who believe in Jesus Christ.

That's it for now. I'll be posting again tomorrow. Gotta catch some Zs.

Good night and God bless you.
