The Verity goes on tour….in a city near you!!

by 250 Comments

It is my distinct privilege and honor to introduce you to The Verity, a christian rock band consisting of 5 bright and charming young men from Morristown, Tennessee.
My son, Taylor, whom you’ve heard lots about, is the lead singer, guitar player, songwriter and self-proclaimed ‘dad’ of the group (shown center). You also know Andrew well from my blog posts. The boys are all listed at the bottom of this picture. They leave tomorrow for a ten day tour of the eastern US.  They will be traveling with another band but there won’t be any parent chaperones.  I’ve asked them to guest post so that you will remember to pray for them(and their parents) while they’re gone. Please show them some love in the comments section! I know they look all grown up but there will be some worried mamas here at home while these boys are venturing into the treacherous waters of manhood.
Hello to all my beloved moms’ blogger friends. As you have figured out by now we are leaving for a ten day tour tomorrow morning! We are extremely excited to do this, it has been a work in progress for awhile and it feels great to actually be doing something that we have only talked about since the band started. We just wanted to take the time before we leave to thank you all for the support and we ask that you continue to pray for us daily while we are gone and on the road!

We are still booking some dates for the end of July and the first week of August so if you know of any churches or venues that are looking for a christian band then let us know! Also if you live near a venue that we are playing at on this tour then come out and see us and say HEY! Thanks for everything!!

I know I’m no martyr but Taylor is taking my car (above) and I’m driving his car(below).

For 10 days.  My car has been plagued with funny smells before which you can read about here, but I’m very afraid of my car returning with a curious 10day-sweatyboy-DIDSOMETHINGDIEINHERE?-smell.  This, along with ‘will he eat one piece of fruit while he’s gone?’ is what keeps me up at night.

Nicholas Wadsworth interviews Taylor and Dibbs

I pray for your safety. I hope you have fun. I’m so proud of what you’ve made of your life. I’ll be counting the days till you’re back home. May God give you grace for your  journey. My love to you today, everyday, and always.

Mom.

P.S. Showers and clean underwear are your friends.  ‘Just say no’ to Andrew and Jay.

    I love your blog, I've been a silent reader so far. When I saw The Verity was going to be in my town I had to let you know. I live about 10min from Loveland, OH. I'll have to stop in and check them out.

    I'm in Canada, so won't be seeing you guys (yet). Stay safe and have fun!

    Oh, and take care of your Mama's car…

    Edie, I'm deep in your archives and do you really drive an Excursion… do you know that's the only thing I want right to drive right now? I have a Yukon and when there's a Rover in the car I can't get in the back seat with him… I've been looking at those with longing for many months now. Justin thinks I'm nuts and too small to drive a beast… I strongly disagree. 🙂 Please tell me… is it a diesel?

    Mission Uncrossable offers seamless cross-platform play, allowing players to enjoy the game on both desktop and mobile devices without the need for downloads. This accessibility ensures that you can play Mission Uncrossable anytime, anywhere, enhancing the overall gaming experience. If you’ve ever played Pachinko, this is a fun update of the classic Japanese game. At the bottom of the screen you will see a bunch of pockets that have values that either multiply or divide your virtual currency ‘stake’, and then a ball will drop from the top of the screen and bounce off the pegs to land in one of these pockets. The cool thing is that you get to decide how many pockets and pegs are included to balance out risk and reward. Mission Uncrossable seamlessly blends simplicity with excitement, offering players an accessible yet thrilling gaming experience. Players begin by selecting their preferred difficulty level before diving into the action. With bets placed, the objective is clear: navigate the lanes safely to multiply your earnings. However, amidst the adrenaline rush, there lurks the risk of collisions with passing vehicles, adding an element of suspense. The decision to press forward or halt rests in the hands of the player, amplifying the stakes and intensifying the experience.

    These casino games use a real dealer operating a game in a studio in real-time with the footage live-streamed to the online casino, and players participate using the virtual overlay on their devices. The dealer can see the players’ inputs and react accordingly. Gambling can be harmful if not controlled and may lead to addiction! Use our online tools and play responsibly. Here, you get a clean design, fast games, and features that work. From Megaways slots to blackjack tables with real dealers. No app necessary. No hidden settings. No wandering through tabs to find favourites. Everything you need. Nothing you don’t. The biggest challenge for US players isn’t finding good slots—it’s finding a legal place to play them. Here’s where things stand: If you live in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, or West Virginia, you can play at legal online casinos like BetMGM, DraftKings, or Caesars. If you live outside those states, your best bet is sweepstakes casinos like Chumba, which let you play slot-style games and redeem winnings for real cash. Offshore casinos exist, but be careful—many operate without strict regulation, so getting your winnings isn’t always guaranteed. Always check a casino’s reputation before depositing money. A good rule of thumb? If it looks shady, it probably is.
