Ah, but Ryan, I bet you guys were not married in Athens, AL.

But seriously, that it great! Belated congrats to you guys. I see that you are with HCJB in Ecuador. I was down there a couple of years ago with a team doing ethnographical research on some of the people groups there and spent a day at HCJB. I recall being very impressed with the work being done there.

What a coincidence! July 19, 2008 was my 5th anniversary too. What are the chances?

Just thought I’d share

Hey Timmy. Happy Anniversary. May there be many happy more to follow. Your whole take on who we really are in the context of marriage and blogging hit the mark. Well said my brother.

Jackie,

Thank you for your very kind comments.

Tyler,

I am sorry that you were not forewarned about riding with Brandon, but I am glad that you made it to our wedding! I am glad to see that we are keeping in touch after these five years. Don’t be a stranger.

Tim,

So you are trying to bring regenerate church membership into the discussion of book sales and marketing . . . nice.

Thanks Drew! It’s great to hear from you guys. Yeah, people down here have already been informed about my speaking mishaps! It’s good to hear that you have caught up with Matt and Mindy. The last time we saw them was at Caleb’s wedding in Birmingham. Thanks for commenting, and please keep in touch.

Happy Anniversary guys! I remember the beautiful wedding and how God honoring it all was. It was a pleasure to be there :). Not to mention the fun comments/slip-ups that Timmy had in his Wednesday Night Lessons, those were priceless

BTW ran into Matt & Mindy Dennis yesterday, they were in town visiting family, it was great to get to see them, he asked how ya’ll were doing. I told him about your site here so you may see his comments soon :). They were doing great!

Congratulations Tim! This post was a beautiful tribute to both your marriage and your wife—-I hope she does read this one.

Brett and I will celebrate our wedding anniversary on 7/22. It’ll be 13 years and I will say it only gets better! May He continue to bless our covenant towards each of our spouses.

Happy anniversary, guys! I still remember that day well. For some odd reason, I met and road with Brandon Baldwin from Clements to Athens. It was one of the scariest car rides I’ve ever had. Riding shotgun, I was clinging to my armrests with as much strength as my hands could muster. Brandon was around 90 mph the whole way as we weaved between each car. I was (arguably) the happiest person to be at yours and Dusti’s wedding–my reason being different than yours. I was glad to still have my life, and you were glad that you were getting married to Dusti. In the end, I somehow talked Brandon into letting my drive his car back to Clements and left him at the wedding to ride home with somebody else. All in all, I was very glad to get to see you and Dusti get married, but I must say I was happier to be alive at the end of the day. Haha. Anyway, I hope you guys are doing well.
