Drawing Jesus…
July 4, 2005
So, I sinned this morning.
I know, I know. I hope some of you will keep coming back to this blog and reading it, but if you can’t handle being around with a sinner like me, I can understand. But, let me explain my situation.
This morning it was extremely hot, and too hot for the kids [...]

Getting a bus ticket (and other stories of money)…
June 11, 2005
So, I needed to buy a bus ticket (pictured above) to St. Katherine’s Monastery for tomorrow morning. Easy enough, right? Well, I was told what to tell the taxi driver to get to the bus station - and I grabbed a taxi, and explained it to him, and I was only 50% sure that he [...]

**Warning!! Politically-INcorrect Youth Group
March 15, 2004
I picked the lesson topic for tonight at 6.30pm (for a youth group that starts at 7pm). Talking about the Bible, why it’s important, what it is, does it matter how we view it (literal, inerrant, metaphors…), etc. The discussion was going pretty lame until I mentioned something about the two creation narratives and someone [...]

I’ve had this picture for awhile, ran across it tonight, and realized…”Damn. This is most certainly blog-worthy.” Enjoy.

“You’re a hazard…You’re gonna kill us”
February 4, 2004
I’ve always wondered if my driving-habits would ever come back around to me.
They have.
Today, as I was driving around Hagerman (pop.630) looking for street interviewees for a video for our highschool retreat next weekend (Hyperthermia), I spot the perfect candidate. He’s your typical, southern-Idaho, small town, hick-farmer-type-of-guy. As I’m pulling over to the side of [...]

Pharisees Happen.
January 25, 2004
I love 6th graders. Tonight at sunago (our 6th-7th grade group) one of our volunteers was trying to tell the story from Luke 7.36-50 of the prostitute who anointed Jesus’ feet in the presence of Pharisees. One of our 6th grade guys was trying to get all of the characters straight. He couldn’t figure out [...]

The Brick Testament
December 1, 2003
I’ve been thinking, recently, about how difficult the Bible is to read. We really expect a lot from new Christians, and even those who have been around for awhile, to be able to gleam T(t)ruth from the Scriptures.
