Introducing Sage Owen Linne


On January 5, 2012 at 8:42 p.m. EST, Sage Owen Linne entered the world, to the astonishment and joy of his grateful parents. He weighed in at a sleek 6 lbs. 4oz. From the moment he got here, he has lived up to his name, as far as having a low-key, seemingly thoughtful demeanor. He's been a very chill and relaxed baby- (except when he's hungry!) As you can see from the pic, I will teach him well what his proper sports allegiances should be. In other words, I'm teaching him how to endure suffering! But seriously, Blair, Sage and I are all doing well. It's already been quite an adjustment. I'm fighting to trust God's wisdom, goodness and provision in this season. Your continued prayers are greatly appreciated.

grace and peace,
shai

Congratulations on your first. He's afine looking boy. May God grant you wisdom as you impart wisdom to your little "Sage". May he love the God of his father from his earliest days.

He is beautiful! By the way, your new album is amazing. And, we recently found out that our new pastor coming in two weeks to our little congregation in Mango, Fl, you served beside at a conference at Cornerstone Community Church...Brian Shealy. He has lots of great things to say about that and you. Blessings.
