There is something going on right now that really has me torn. I know of a fulltime paid pastor who is on the verge of losing their job. On a personal level, this person is great to be around. If there were more hours in the day, I'm that there could actually be a good friendship there. The problem is ministry. This person just can't seem to stop doing things wrong. I don't mean the

There's a song by Dave Matthews called, "Everybody Wake Up" that has the following lines: And our finest hour arrives See the pig dressed in his finest fine And believers stand behind him and smile As the day lights up with fireNow, I know that he is most likely referring to our president, but the first thought that came to mind was "Is he talking about preachers?" Notice I didn't say

There was a movie with Michael Keaton and Andie MacDowell that came out in 1996 called "Multiplicity". The basic idea, was that the main character, Doug, just didn't have enough time. There were work responsibilities, family responsibilities. personal responsibilities, you name it. So, he had a clone made of himself. And then another. Finally, things started to get a bit easier; more Doug

Anyone else sick of "Contemporary Christian Music" (CCM)? Don't get me wrong, there are some great songs being written with the heart of God in mind and with the purpose of helping people express their worship to God. That's not what I'm talking about.I'm thinking more along the lines of the bands who are just clones of so-called secular bands. I mean, how many versions of U2 and Cold Play can

A pastor friend of mine said the following:"Christians should be the most creative people on the planet!"I have to say, I totally agree. Even though it goes against all that I am (non-creative), I have to stand by that fact. But, the American church (for the most part) has snuffed out creativity like it were Jimmy Hoffa, seemingly to never be found again. Why is that?Our traditions were born

Communication breakdown, it's always the same.Having a nervous breakdown, drive me insane!So why can't people communicate? Maybe some just have nothing to communicate, and that's understandable. How about we not let those people be in charge of anything important? It's one thing if the person in charge has things planned out and a course of action thought up but just lacks in the communication

The previous post talks about thinking like a missionary here in the U.S.. We like to preach it and think that we are practicing it, but we're not. How are we supposed to seep into every area of this society if we just ignore what's going on around us and live our safe little (so-called) Christian lives?We give money to foreign missionaries so that they can live abroad in the culture they are

"When you begin to think missionally, you realize, This is not somebody else’s responsibility; it’s my responsibility. Christ’s commission to the early Christians was to reach out to Jerusalem, then Samaria, then to the corners of the earth. I have to take care of my 'Jerusalem'.As people begin to think like a missionary, they begin to take responsibility for the lostness of people in their

All that's missing now is to have real-time GPS tracking of the FedEx truck that has your package. I would love to sleep before I go to Rev night tonight at the church, but I gotta get my phone; I'm phoneless until it arrives.I know why FedEx sucks... it's the "Fed" part. Nothing Federal ever works right.
