I’m sitting here in my pj’s on a Sunday morning just like any other Sunday morning. But there’s something different. I don’t want to be relaxing today. I want to be doing. I want to be a part of something much larger than I. I am really upset that I can’t find a churchContinue reading “Spirit longing”

Blind Faith
I love talking with people who challenge me. I love talking with people who have great questions. I love people whose questions challenge the core of what I believe. I love questions that are asked, out loud, that I have asked internally but have never asked for fear of judgment. For so long, I’ve believedContinue reading “Blind Faith”
Tales of visiting church
Today I headed to a new church (to me) so that I could be a part of One Prayer. I love the concept of One Prayer. Over 900 churches united for one cause. My prayer is for the church to unite more often. I’m trying to find a place that I can call home. IContinue reading “Tales of visiting church”
What a congregant wishes their worship leader and lead pastor knew
Earlier this week, I linked to this about what pastors wish their worhsip leaders knew. Today, I link to this post that tells what worship leaders wish their lead pastors knew. I think that both posts reflect what I, as a congregant, would like my worship leader and my lead pastor to know 🙂
Passion
Something hit me today. A light bulb went on. Lately I have been eating, drinking and sleeping two things: church and work. I’ve probably commented on it before, but I think a lot about these two things. A whole lot. As a matter of fact, in church, I was talking to someone about dental implants, aboutContinue reading “Passion”
Whirlwind
I don’t know where to begin in trying to describe this weekend. Whirlwind. Busy. Exhausting. Exhilarating. I think my favorite part of my 9-5 is our Saturday training sessions with the dentists. I love being in a classroom environment. I love learning. I love being around people who are ambitious and who want to makeContinue reading “Whirlwind”
Friday download
Blgging is interesting. Seriously. Today I think I had hits from just about every continent. And I never left the East coast of the US. It is a small world after all 🙂 God gave me a vision a long time ago to preach the gospel on every continent. I assumed I would accrue stampsContinue reading “Friday download”
Sooooooo excited
Just found out that my pastor is going to the Exponential Conference in two weeks in Orlando. He’s going to be around some of the movers and shakers of church planting of our time…I’m probably more excited that he’s going than I would be if I were going myself. Can’t wait to hear all of theContinue reading “Sooooooo excited”
Thematic review
You know the unsettled, anticipatory theme that has been running through my writing? This morning I woke up and it was urgent. Don’t know what is going on…wish that God would send me the Sparks Notes of the next few days, weeks, months. This morning I was reflecting on where I am and where IContinue reading “Thematic review”
Declarations, snow and town hall meetings
Yesterday I made a declaration. I publicly stated that I am no longer afraid of what people think of me. I have decided to be who I am. I understand that there are some people who are easily offended, so to try to appease them would mean exerting a lot of energy to not offendContinue reading “Declarations, snow and town hall meetings”
