My Friday tidy office is mysteriously messy on Monday. Here’s what I found today: 1. Note about lunch…because of a gift card!: The note was from my wife, Michelle, saying that she had taken the kids to lunch, and I could meet them there. I attended a special meeting of one of our ministry committeesContinue reading “Gift Card, Bibles, Proposals, Letter from Lawyer – Monday Messy Office Report – June 30, 2014”

Self-enslavement? To everyone?…A good thing?
After a few weeks off from studying for a new sermon, I am back at it, and I have to admit I’m a bit nervous. I almost always look forward to preaching, something that has grown on me over the years. But there are still a few Sundays that I don’t look forward to it. Continue reading “Self-enslavement? To everyone?…A good thing?”
Poop Cards, Gift Bag, Projector Box, Christian Junk Mail – Monday Messy Office Report – Vacation edition – June 24, 2014
After 3200 miles, we arrived home last Friday evening from a wonderful vacation in Round Rock, Texas with my wife, Michelle’s, cousin’s family.

Bikinis and Bibles – 1st Corinthians 8 & 10:23-11:1
Last week I introduced The Great Bikini Debate and Professional Weaker Brothers. I never imagined I’d be preaching a sermon which featured bikinis. But this past Sunday that’s exactly what happened. Bibles and Bikinis. Think they don’t go together? Think they shouldn’t go together? I envisioned a scenario where those two things might go together.
