I came across this on another site. Thought it was cool at first, but then let the words sit for a while and really love the set of verses. You'll see, it's my last name, GEIPEL spelled out as an Acrostic with Bible Verses. Very cool. I am a fan of some of the strong words found within: Give, Build, Redemption, Praise, Examine, Esteem. I plan to read and breath these verses over my family as they so aptly fit. And that's the power of His Word. It never returns void. Thank you God for every word.

Kinda cool. Anyways, something I am sure both Michelle and I would apply in our lives.
While I don't know how this was created, it could have been my brother (Pete Geipel) who posted it, I find it's a great application - especially the P in Geipel for PRAISE. You see, we are bother worship leaders and oh how this wonderfully fits the bill.
