In celebration of Joel's 40th birthday, Brian Houston writes: "FOURTY! I am so proud of my oldest - His love for God and compassion for people - Artist - Poet - Wordsmith - Songwriter - Worshipper - Husband - Father - Son - In recent time's golfer - Surfer and other extreme stuff. I can't believe we have a fourty year old son.. Happy birthday @joelhouston - I love you.. "
Fellow worship leader Brooke Ligertwood expresses her congratulations: "This would be my brother-from-the-Bobbie-mother, @joelhouston. He's not the friend who will pick you up from the airport or help you move house, but he's the friend who will be in your corner in every season of life, even when it's not a popular or well-understood place to be. Happy 40th birthday, old mate. The best is ahead. Love you very much!"
