Studied Portuguese.

I got an email on Thursday night from Brazil from the leader of the conference I’m speaking at in Brazil in January. He told me they are covering all my air fair and hotel bills! Awesome, baby!

Ashley, Penelope, Kathy and I had fun briefing our teams on Hinduism, Judaism, and Islam on Friday.

Great singing!

Practicing “the Dip.”


“It’s not for Tim, it’s for HIM!”

Coaching emotional states.

Fashion show!

Red Thread Ceremony.

“What’s that red thread?” “That’s my Prayer Trigger. Can I pray for you?”

Went on Safari to Global Mall.

P approved!

Models.

Saw the Shiv Mandir.

Visited the Middle East at Al Madina.

They’ve been a great team!

Then to the missions!

Came home and rode 11.11 miles.

I saw a dead fox on my ride. Sad. Just a kit.

Had a great talk with Jesse.

Tried to see the International Space Station. Got out just two minutes too late! It was only a 2 minute spotting. Next time!

I’m up early doing admin duties on Saturday. It’s our DDay for the team.

Released a new edition of Verbal Surgery late last night!

This morning I got up early and studied Portuguese! It’s becoming a habit!

Ashley, Penelope and I had fun briefing our teams from Alabama, Florida and Georgia on Islam, Judaism and Christianity.

Singing!

Rabbi Tim!

With my lil’ partner!

Fashion show!

The Red Thread Ceremony

People tie a thread on their partner’s wrist. “What’s that Red Thread?” “It’s my Prayer Trigger. Can I pray for you?”

Took them on Safari to Global Mall.

Two of the teams ate with us at Ashiana.

Visited the Shiv Mandir. Penelope wanted to help with the briefing. Cutest angel.


How many choirs get to sing in a Hindu Temple? Only with me and Ashley!

Then to Al Madina!

They’re doing a great job at the missions.

Turning Point from Florida had a pizza party and concert at Shallowford Gardens.

I liked seeing these girls sharing Jesus!

At the end, the team handed out tshirts! I look forward to seeing the kids wear them!

Got home about 9:30pm. Long days!

Admin duties now.

Studied Portuguese early Tuesday morning!

Took the Financial Report to our treasurer’s house.

Ashley, Penelope and I briefed the teams on Hinduism and Buddhism.

Good singing!

Go Penelope!

Took them on Safari to Asian Square.

Then to the missions! They are doing a wonderful job, in spite of drizzly weather.

They helped me clean up the mission at Azalea and get the room ready for Jesse to move back in.

I scrubbed, swept and cleaned!

Our team from Florida, Turning Point at Calvary, did a concert and puppet show at Azalea!

They kids loved it!

The parents, too!

Got home after 10:00pm. Long day! Then released a new edition of Verbal Surgery -460- “Ride the Lightning!” It’s electrifying! Learn how to rewire your brain and feel good, NOW!

I’m up early Wednesday morning to work on Admin duties before going to be with the teams.

Studied Portuguese this morning.

Say what?

Beautiful sunset!

Studied Portuguese around 6:00am. Early for my brain!


I got a new program to listen to learn on Audible. It’s been really good.

Got about 3/4″ of rain on Sunday.

This morning Ashley, Penelope and I briefed our three teams from Georgia, Alabama and Florida!

Fun! Oshe Baba! Blast off!

Coach Tim yelling at everyone to get with the program!

The Egg of Eggcellence!

Took them on Safari to the Buford Highway Farmers Market.

After eating lunch, we took them on a tour around the market.

The team sang at the market. Beauty!

Then to the missions!





We had very heavy weather roll through the ATL. Cut the second sessions short. We had planned on hosting a concert at one of the missions in the evening. Just too dangerous for that.

Did some shopping then came home to make supper.

Admin duties now.

Rainy day.

Studied Portuguese. Reviewing key concepts.



Kathy wasn’t feeling well. Took care of her this morning. Jesse is also under the weather.

Edited and uploaded video from my latest team from Alabama.

I am doing all the editing, uploading and sharing on my iPhone 7+.

I’ve made a couple of changes to my operation. I used to always add music. I’ve decided that wasn’t necessary. I think the natural sound adds more realism. And I’ve also stopped burning DVDs for each team. Who watches DVDs anymore? Everything now is streaming in HD.

Sent an email to the team leader with all the links to the photo galleries and video.

When that is accomplished I consider the team complete, although I’ve added one more step now. From now on, all the adult leaders who come with the teams will also be sent a letter to encourage them to become regular donors. If you don’t ask, you don’t receive. In the past I’ve asked, but not directly enough.

Worked on updating the Featured Galleries in our Photo Sharing site: SmugMug.

Updated and merged all the different State email addresses into one master State list.

Added all the new contacts from last week into the separate lists, either Youth Group Leaders (who have already worked with us) or Newsletter List (every member who has worked with us.)

A massive job, but worthwhile. It’ll save Ashley a lot of time when she sends out information. She can do one email blast rather than 15!

I’m very sensitive to how much time each procedure takes. If it’s too hard, it generally stops getting done.

Too slippery to ride.

I did record a very intense edition of Verbal Surgery called “This Is Not A Drill.” Super good will be released later this month.

Had a good meeting over the phone with Jesse’s lawyer for his startup. Great to see things coming along!

Admin duties now.

50 DAYS STRAIGHT of studying Portuguese. I’m making progress.

I spoke a lot of Spanish today as well. There is so much crossover between the two languages that it has really been a great review.

Ashley, Penelope and I had a great time on our D-DAY, or Dedication Day with our team from Prattville and Montgomery Hills, Alabama.

Rocking out with “Oshe, Baba!”

Everyone jumps as high as they can.

Bubbleation!

We enjoy giving gifts!

Explaining how to interact with people at the market.

Ashley is so good at it!

Senor Tim rides again!

Rabbi Mode.

Part of our D-Day is giving the card with the person that we’re praying for to Jesus.

I anoint their heads with oil from the Holy Land and give them part of the Aaronic Blessing. “May the Lord bless you and keep you.”

Then they sign the Landing Pad.



Then on Safari to the Buford Highway Farmers Market.

I will be going to Belo Horizonte in January, 2018! Yeah, baby!

Thus the Portuguese study.

I will be one of the speakers at what is being billed as the largest hypnosis conference in the world.

We had a great lunch with the team. Penelope is always the hit of the show.


Always something fun and different to see!

Lots of samples to try!

Penelope’s “hobo” look. She loves chocolate!

After the taking them to the market we came back to the church for them to use the bathroom. They also helped me set up chairs for the next team. we have 55 people in town on Monday! I hung the Landing Pad back up. It’s four years old now! Getting pretty full!


I also cleaned the room and the bathrooms and swept the rugs.

Then to the missions! I thought these little boys were super cute.

The team has done a great job with the kids!

One of our team members got to share with a homeless guy.

Went to Walmart to pick up supplies like bathroom cleaners, sprays and toilet paper.

After I finished cleaning up the church, I went home and had a 10.66 mile bike ride.

Studied Portuguese.

Put some new insoles into my shoes this morning. Reckon they needed it!

Filled out my mileage log.

Ashley, Penelope and I had a great time on our Dedication Day with our team from FBC Enterprise! We always enjoy giving gifts.

I look like I’ve lost weight in this shot. Over 20 pounds.

I love singing with the teams! I’ve really worked on not blowing out my voice. So far I’ve done pretty well.

I took them outside today.

I thought the feathers added a nice touch.

Bubbleation!

During our briefing, we have the teams read the labels on the curiosities that we show. Penelope took one of the microphone and was doing the same thing to the kids! She cracks me up!

We were joined by our other team from FBC Prattville, AL! Met up with them at Plaza Fiesta!

We had our dedication ceremonies with our team from Enterprise. Signing the Landing Pad!

We really enjoyed this almost all girl team. They were really fantastic.

Always something interesting to see!

Said our “Good byes” to the team, then focused on our new group! They did a great job at the missions!

During the transition periods, I edited video on my iPhone.

Got them to their second locations and shot pictures and video.

Came home around 7:30pm and went for a 9.95 mile bike ride. I was going fast!

I repainted my shoes with white primer spray paint this evening. I like the new insoles. Felt better when I pedaled!

Admin duties now. I’m tired. I’ve been going to sleep around 10:30pm, which is pretty early for me.

We got over 1″ of rain yesterday.

This morning Ashley, Penelope and I had fun briefing our team on Hinduism, Judaism and Islam.

I introduced them to “Bubbleation!”

Always a crowd favorite!

I went into full “Raja Mode.”

Plus “Rabbi Tim!”

The fashion show.

Rachel’s Tree of Love for the “Red Thread Ceremony.”

Our Lil’ Partner was tuckered out!

We took them on Safari to Global Mall. Enjoyed eating at Ashiana and seeing the Shiv Mandir.

Glad Kathy got to come!

Then to Al Madina to get a taste of the Middle East and Islam.

They’ve done a great job at the missions!

Never too much Penelope!

She enjoyed seeing the other little kids.

She wasn’t completely sure what to make of this attention!


I was good to see my friend Eduardo Zamora!

I dropped off a couple of packages in the mail to my friends Anthony and Freddy Jacquin! Can’t wait to see them in November!

Came home to ride 10.61 miles on my bike.

Cleaned my hummingbird feeders and refilled them.

Admin duties now. Included catching the blog up from yesterday since I got home so late.

Tuesday, Ashley, Penelope and I had fun briefing our team on how to round up the kids at the mission and how to interact with people at the markets.

We took them on Safari to the Buford Highway Farmers Market. Always a hoot!

I couldn’t get over Penelope eating those red hot Taki chips!

Then to the missions!

It was a rainy day. They still did a great job!

Later that evening, I went to see Todd Rundgren who is my favorite musician. This was the fifth time to see him in concert! He was better than ever. A terrific show with an incredible light show. I was right against the stage, as usual.

I didn’t get home until nearly midnight.
