But I don’t want to dress like a girl.

Heaven help me, I need some new blue jeans so I went shopping this afternoon.  It was awful.  I came away with the faint hope I could offer the blue jeans I now own to Jesus and if I was lucky He’d just do to them what he did to the loaves and fishes.  You [...]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Pictures of a happy church.

This is Terry on his way to the office.

A Terry wannabe.  Just not happening.  It’s a Ford and the wannabe ain’t as pretty as Terry.  Keep trying.

And I guess you better help them too.

A happy church.

Memorial Drive is a happy place to be.  You can feel the joy when you enter the building.  Lots of laughter.  Lots of energy.  Lots of hugs.  Lately I’ve been wondering why this is true.  What is it exactly that makes Memorial Drive such a happy church?  Did we get lucky?  Was it an accident?  [...]

Jesus will never let go.

On Sunday I was blessed to be a part of the worship service at Memorial Drive.  Shane asked me to tell the story of Horatio Spafford.   The following is what I shared Sunday.  In order for this to make sense you need to know I prefaced my remarks by telling the church a little bit [...]

Computer on life support.

Just an FYI- I believe my computer is in the process of giving up the ghost.  An evil virus has abandoned the nether regions of the internet to roost in my system or it’s simply wearing out.  Either way it’s lights out for me till I get this figured out.  It’s a downright tragedy- for [...]

Can I have my gills back?

One of our college students at Memorial Drive told me they were recently required to attend a lecture with the topic Finding Your Inner Fish. Or something like that.  Seriously.
According to the lecturer, oops! humans aren’t evolved from apes after all.  The truth of the matter is we are ascended from fish.   Or descended.  [...]

Bah! on Democrats…and Republicans

So President Obama is the once mighty moral majority’s worst nightmare.  He’s a socialist hell-bent on undermining churches, advocating alternate lifestyles, appointing judges who will interpret the law in the most liberal way possible and more than likely will require all of us to have our foreheads stamped with the number 666 in order to [...]

Election 2008

I bet Republicans aren’t the only ones in mourning today.  My guess is behind the scenes Hillary Clinton is beside herself with grief.  Unless President-elect Obama fails in spectacular fashion she will not challenge a sitting president of her party for the nomination.  That means her presidential ambitions will be on hold for at least [...]
