Here is an article lifted from Everyday Joe's: Immigration Bill
I know that the frenzy about the bill has settled a bit now and that I'm a little late in talking about this, but it took me a long time to really figure out how I feel about this bill.... and I'm not sure I have a definite answer even now. For me, the bill boils down to 2 questions. Is there a law or code that is higher than the United States? and If there is, which code do you follow? And each person has to decide those answers for his or herself.
The kicker for me in all of this is how quick and easy it is to dehumanize a group of people or a culture. These are people, not statistics, whatever ends up happening, it will be happening to people, families, children, men and women, and that scares me a bit. So after all of this here is the one thing I know, we are called to be light and love, and that is better than any law.

The Weekend Show
This past saturday the lady and I had the pleasure of catching a show at our favorite coffee house/church, Everyday Joe's. Sleeping at Last and Jeremy Larson drove out all the way from midwest to bring their musical goodness, and they did not dissapoint at all. Jeremy Larson opened solo on guitar and piano in tight pants and had the audience's full attention after the first song. Throw in a few subtle faith references and some witty guitar tuning banter and we were sold. Next up was Sleeping at Last who opened up with a ukulele and a beat and never looked back. Their music was beautiful and thoughtful and in between songs you could hear a pin drop as the audience waited eagerly for the next song. If you have some time these fellas are definitely worth a listen..... Also Sleigh bells came out with a new song that is absolutely incredible Enjoy.
