Sermons

Had a few folks ask…So I thought I’d post this. You can grab any Austin Stone sermon from the website (as well as via iTunes). They usually hit by Monday or Tuesday.

Apartment Carpet

Generally speaking, we like apartment life. It’s like living in a homey hotel. Accidentally smash the wall while moving furniture? Who cares. Refrigerator’s broken? They fix it ASAP, for free. And forget about taking your shoes off at the door, because guess what? It’s “apartment carpet.”
But it’s still an apartment. And quite honestly, we [...]

Argentinean Adventures

For those who don’t know, Cory’s been in Buenos Aires since August. He’s having a solid time teaching English in the city, but he’s also got the itch for more adventure…
So…He got hired on by Nervous Waters, an elite fly fishing group to lead fly fishing adventures down at their Santa Cruz, Argentina, location! Here’s [...]

Two Weeks Down

I’m two weeks into coffee drinking now.
Here are some of the most recent changes that have taken place in the Michner household:

Created a laminated sheet of exact coffee measurements for grinding, brewing, etc

Coffee

Reasons to start drinking coffee:

I want to be cool
I want to whine about being addicted to coffee
The gadgets are endless.

So there you have it. Ladies and gentlemen, you [...]

Re-Branding?

Perhaps themichners.com becomes the hub of all online marriage advice, given that we’re experts. Or maybe it’s an advice column on being awesome.
Not sure. But I wanted [...]

Lake House 09!

Wow. It seems like we’ve been busier than normal around here. Or is that simply an excuse, since it looks like most of my our posts lately have been A) Extremely short and B) Extremely infrequent? Regardless, here we go…
So going back to May of 2008: Kate’s folks rented a lake house out on Lake [...]

Pictures from Labor Day

We had an absolute blast up in Connecticut with Mike, Heather and little Miss Gracie. She’s a real cutie, and a great sleeper (lately)!
Enjoy!
