NEW JOB!!!!

May 19, 2008

I’ve accepted a job as Worship Leader at George W. Truett Theological Seminary. I will lead worship for the Community Gatherings for Worship (aka: “chapel” ;) services. They want to move in a direction more musically “in-step” with where the students are with worship. So, they hired me.
My job is to pull together [...]

UNEXPECTED

April 30, 2008

Especially at a seminary, people have differing views of God’s “will.” Is it as planned-out as we think it is? Does God care one way or another what job we take, who we marry, etc.? Does God have that job or that person picked out and we are to submit to that [...]

FINDING RESOLUTION (THOUGH NOT NECESSARILY ANSWERS)

April 28, 2008

I know, this blog has been the slowest since I began it years ago. I can only apologize for the delay. Time has caught me off guard. I’m doing so much better, but catching up and keeping up with school work has afforded me little time for relaxation - what little time [...]

UPDATE

April 7, 2008

Wow. So my whole blog host people have changed things around since I’ve last posted. It’s freaking me out just a little.
Anyways. I am updating to say that I am much, much better. Thank you all so much for the emails and phone calls, for the dinners and offers for dinners, [...]

WEDDING THIS SATURDAY

March 4, 2008

My sister is getting married this weekend. I’m officiating part of the ceremony (our dad is officiating the other part).
My part consists of the mini-sermonette and the initial remarks. And I’m having a hard time finding anything to say.
Our idea of marriage is not at all what was practiced in Biblical times. [...]

SHOES

March 4, 2008

I own just about as many shoes as any girl I know… seriously. I like shoe shopping; I don’t know why; it relaxes me… you’re laughing, but seriously.
Anyways, I needed(?) some new shoes, hadn’t bought any in a little while.
So, I went to the mall, actually to look for a hat (needed one to [...]

THOUGHTS ON SIN

February 24, 2008

I haven’t posted much lately. Last week was crazy busy. And lately I’ve spend much of my thought time away from my laptop and blog.
But here’s some ideas on sin…
First, I don’t believe that sin is mainly actions. I believe that sin is a condition with which we are afflicted, and ’sinful’ [...]

THAT IS HOT

February 13, 2008

I want a hot wife. Really I do.
I’m single right now. I have a friend who wants me to “meet” a “friend” of hers. And I think I might… she could be hot.
What is hot?
Hot is When Heaven Invades Earth.
Hot is when she is the Kingdom of God.
There is a parable in [...]

GOOD NEWS… I’M NOT A HERETIC AFTER ALL!

February 11, 2008

So, I been doing a lot of reading lately.  And I’ve come to a very recent discovery:  I’m not a heretic after all!
Isn’t that great news??!!… for me at least.
Yes, as it turns out, I’m not a heretic, instead I am Arminian (not to be confused with Armenian).  Of course in some circles, namely Calvinism circles, [...]

ENOUGH

February 1, 2008

This is probably the most moving ‘version’ of Enough I’ve ever heard.

… just because it’s so passionate and authentic.
