A few things to update you on… Saturday we had an “off” day. We spent time at the park playing football with some of the Mexican people and then they taught us how to play soccer. It was lots of fun spending the day playing in the park. We told Nate (our wonderful youth minister) [...]

Mexico City Update – 3 (Feeding the Homeless)
$300 for the groceries… Three hours to make about 100 sack lunches for the homeless of Mexico City… Watching our group coming to the realization that the church’s purpose is about serving the world …. PRICELESS. I know I’ve got a lot of moms and dads from home reading each day to see how their [...]
Full Story »Mexico City Update – 2
I’d like you to meet Pedro. He’s the one in the center between Lea and I. Many years ago Pedro was walking out of a Mexico City bar in the early morning hours when someone handed him an invitation for a Bible study. Pedro went home, sobered up and decided he needed to change his [...]
Full Story »Mexico City Update – 1
We made it! And in record bus-riding time. Twenty-nine hours to be exact. We’re tired, dirty and excited all at the same time. We’re in the process of a slight clean up and heading out to eat lunch and then work. Trip was uneventful. Had a few motion-sick kids, but all in all, uneventful. Crossing [...]
Full Story »MEXICO CITY
32 hours from Childress, Texas to Mexico City on a bus (and then another 32 hours to get home again). Walking close to 6 miles a day. Handing out invitation to study the Bible. Picking up trash. Seeing a few sights. Working in communities. Feeding the homeless. Serving others. Sounds like a TON of fun [...]
Full Story »A FEW THOUGHTS …
Wow, what a weekend. We made a flying trip to New Mexico for my niece’s wedding. Rachel is my sister Monalea‘s oldest daughter. I’m tired but it was good to spend time with all my family. ———————————— I’ve made a big change to my “sermon” page. I’m now posting my sermons at http://trey.mypodcast.com/. The main [...]
Full Story »HOME SWEET HOME
You know, it doesn’t matter where the vacation was, it’s always nice to come home. Although the weather may be hotter, the humidity higher and the scenery flatter, home may be the sweetest sight of all. I’m glad to be home. PS – It may take me a few days to catch up on email [...]
Full Story »A FEW MORE PICTURES
Interesting, we have no phone here in the mountains and our cellular phones won’t get service, but I can drive a couple of miles to a little town and sit in the parking lot of a bar that offers free internet and check my email. I hope no one has taken pictures of my car [...]
Full Story »A FEW PICTURES FROM THE MOUNTAINS
For a “flat-lander” like me these mountains are beautiful. We’ve had a great chance relax and listen to some great speakers. Here are a few pictures… Hope everyone is well…
Full Story »RED RIVER FAMILY ENCAMPMENT
We are planning on making the encampment and listening to some great speakers, but I needed to show you this 17 inch Rainbow Trout that I caught on an Adam’s Parachute. Pretty sweet, hua?
Full Story »TIME OFF
Yee Haw (That means “Woo Hoo” for those not from Texas). Did you notice? It’s official. Your link at the top of the page should say http://www.treymorgan.net/. I finally got it changed over with the help of a very kind man. Your “rediscovering-church” links should still all work find, so really no need to update [...]
Full Story »THE FIRST BIKE RIDE
Okay, so I did a good job teaching Cooper (age 5) how to ride his bike, BUT I forgot to teach him a very important part …. how to use the brakes and stop. Oops! Lea and I laughed so hard at this video. Does that make us bad parents?
Full Story »FAMILIES ARE AMAZINGLY DIFFERENT
God must have a sense of humor. Why else would He put polar opposites in families. Let me give you some examples on how families are often so different just from some past events in the Morgan family… Family Vacations – This summer we’re talking about where we want to go on vacation. Lea would [...]
Full Story »THOUGHTS ON A BRAIN DEAD MONDAY
Usually I do a long “spiritual” post on Monday about something I’ve been thinking about … but today I’m brain dead! It was a long weekend, and I’m overdue for a vacation. Here are a few things running through my mind… I’m thinking about sex. Got your attention? I’m going to do some posts soon [...]
Full Story »MANLY GARDENING
It’s been a good week. Busy as always. Trips out of town to check on the sick, hospital board meetings, T-ball games and services at the prison were just a few of the activities this week. GARDENING: Lea and I spent the week setting out flowers in the flower beds. It’s something I’ve learned to [...]
Full Story »A WEEK AROUND THE MORGAN HOUSE
I was informed today that there are 50 (mostly teenagers) from the Childress church going to Mexico City this July. Two years ago when we went, we took 30. I am SO looking forward to that week! I LOVE hanging with our youth group! And I love serving people in Mexico. It’s been a grieving [...]
Full Story »CANCER CHANGED MY LIFE
Lance Armstrong has a commercial airing in which he stares into the camera and says, “Remember me cancer? You made me who I am today?” That quote really hits home with me. On May 6th of 2003, I sat in Dr. Pate’s office and he looked at me and said, “You have cancer. You’re young [...]
Full Story »T-BALL AND HEAVEN
T-ball. Could there be any form of baseball that’s more pure? There are no steroids (unless you think “Sweet Tarts” are a bit questionable). There is no obsession with winning. And, somehow, everyone wins every game. Sweet, simple and untainted, that’s what t-ball is. I have been blessed to coach all four of my boys [...]
Full Story »MY WEDDING RING
My wedding ring is a simple gold band that hasn’t been off my finger in many, many years. The only time I remember it coming off in the past 10 years is when it broke in half and I had to have it fixed. When you look at it closely, you won’t see any diamonds [...]
Full Story »STUPID THINGS TO SAY TO YOUR WIFE
I could use a little laugh today. Thought we’d have a little fun. Despite Solomon saying, “A wise man’s heart guides his mouth,” husbands still have a way of saying things they shouldn’t. Even though Paul said, “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building [...]

Let me introduce you to some of my new heroes. They are called AIM students. AIM stands for Adventures In Missions (AIM), and I love these people.

Full Story »BONDING WITH MY KIDS
There are great things and tough things about having four boys. Definitely more great things than tough things. One of the things I’ve always struggled with is making individual time for each of them. We’re always doing things together as a family, but not as often as father and son or mother and son. One [...]
Full Story »"WHEN I WAS A KID I WALKED 5 MILES IN THE SNOW…"
This reminded me of my dad. He loves talking about things when he was a kid. He’d say things like, “When I was a kid, I used to walk 5 miles uphill in the snow.” I think my favorite was when me and my brother were talking about where we were born, and he chimed [...]

I’m an early riser. It’s my favorite part of the day. It’s still dark outside, I’m finishing up my 3rd cup of coffee and my quiet time has ended. I need to start dragging boys out of bed for school. I’ve a few things I need to tell you about and then, as promised, I’ll [...]
Full Story »10 THINGS I WISH MY WIFE WOULD WHISPER IN MY EAR
Wanna snuggle on the couch and watch Sportscenter? The Deuce is my favorite restaurant too. Wanna go there now? You ought to upgrade your old mp3 player and get you an IPod Nano. The mufflers sound great on your pickup, but are you sure they are loud enough? Can I go running with you today? [...]
Full Story »FEASTING ON THE DEUCE
A year or so ago while on a trip, my family of six ate at a nice sit down restaurant. It was one of those “order off the menu” places. When the food came we all enjoyed a good tasting meal, but 3 of the 4 boys said, “We’re still hungry, is there anything else [...]

That’s my birthday cake. Yum. I turned 41 today! My good friend Becky made me a Jeff Gordon cake. She knows I’m a big NASCAR fan. Becky gave it to me Sunday, but I haven’t let anyone eat it yet. It’s too cool to cut into. Thanks Becky, you’re too good to me. Last month [...]
Full Story »Toilet Lids, A Man’s Weekend & God’s Will
Due to a few accidents, problems and down right craziness in our home, we’ve often been told that the television show “Home Improvement” could have been based on the Morgan family. I believe God knew this, and that’s why He sent Lea into our lives. She does a “Superwoman” job of being both a mother [...]
Full Story »The Dallas Cowboys, Disappointment & Heaven
Wow, what a weekend. Christmas was great, but the Dallas Cowboy game was a bitter pill to swallow. I’m still pretty much in shock. As most of you know, our family attended the game (if you want to call it that) in person. I can’t get over the fact that I spent months stashing back [...]
Full Story »Night at the Museum, Dallas Cowboys and a Merry Christmas
Saw “Night at the Museum” this weekend. Loved it. Well worth the time and money. If you’re looking for a holiday movie to watch … this one is for the whole family. I always want to put a plug in for a good clean movie. —————————————————— Go Cowboys: I’ll be in Dallas for Christmas with [...]

I was picking up my 10 year-old son, Connor, from school last week when I inquired about his day. “Dad, today was one of my best days ever.” When I asked what made it so great he said with excitement, “My P.E. teacher, Coach Gaylor, called me by my name today.” “You know what that [...]

I’d like you to meet Cooper! He’s my 5 year-old son. Last Sunday on the way to church, Cooper revealed to me something that I didn’t know about him. He looked up at me with all seriousness and said, “Dad, I’m sorry, but I just don’t like church.” I was floored, shocked, and had I [...]
