I said I might post these later… then I thought, well, why not! I’m sure they are great. And, if you are a voracious reader, then you’ll be done with all of these and ready for more before I finish the next one! So why wait! Here they are: Living in the Relational Church –…

A Bigger View of Church
“So, after 2,000 years, how do you think he’s doing?” That was a question posed in an article I read recently about living in the relational church. It was referring to the time where Jesus said, “I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.” The question was posed…

Settle For Less
The other day I was shaving with my electric razor, battling the persistent facial hair that never seems to tire of growing, and I really thought nothing of it. It was all quite ordinary. Once I had finished, I thought perhaps it was time for a recharge (I don’t often remember to do that…) so,…
Selflessness
We just finished watching an episode of Quantum Leap tonight. (We can’t get away from Scott Bakula… we’re also watching the second season of Star Trek Enterprise right now…) 🙂 Quantum Leap was about a scientist who found a way to travel through time within his own lifetime. Something went wrong though, and he ended…

I am still smiling from all that transpired tonight. We did a concert at Chill and Grill tonight – a local eatery with the best ice cream deal in town. The slogan is, “That’s a SMALL?” 🙂 It’s a great place, owned by a great guy, and we were happy to be playing there tonight….

We don’t have all the meetings or rehearsals for the stage production, and we don’t have to all go our separate ways for hours each Sunday morning or the occasional Saturday night. It’s been nice… just a way that we…
Deluge
If I really take the time today, I could write a lot of stuff. I have not taken time this week at all to post thoughts or happenings to this fun e-version of my head. I might just take the morning to do that. 🙂 It’s a beautiful day here! No humidity, no heat, just…
I Lived Here…
I sang this song every school day from grades 4-6. Crazy. CHORUS:Gloria al bravo puebloQue el yugo lanzó,La Ley respetandoLa virtud y honor. ¡Abajo Cadenas! ¡Abajo Cadenas!Gritaba el Señor;Gritaba el Señor.Y el pobre en su choza,Libertad pidió.A este santo nombreTembló de pavor,El vil egoismoQue otra vez triunfó; A este santo nombre,A este santo nombreTembló de…
Redefining Contrived
OK… so I have heard from several people on this idea of what we call “christianity” being contrived, and I figured I need to clarify what I am saying. (Perhaps that is not possible, but I thought I might try) 🙂 One thing I mentioned to a friend in the course of our e-mail conversation…
