“how metrosexual is your worship leader…?”

Cover of Stuff Christians Like While leading Communion last week, we wanted to emphasize a little about community and what it takes in relation to church – with our group. So I had been reading the book – “Stuff Christians Like” (yes, it’s satire) and I came across a little section on “how metrosexual is [...]

kids and selfishness…

I’ve recently discovered… yeah right – I’ve known this all along… I’m selfish. When our first child came along, it was tough because I couldn’t live life as I did before. But after awhile, we found a way to still take him places and still sit down and relax (even if it was after he [...]

7 articles of clothing…

Image by epSos.de via Flickr As you probably saw last month, our church (Adullam Southwest) is doing a “7 things series”. The first month was 7 places to spend money at for the month. The second was 7 reductions on media (where I got to speak of my love for media and the neccesity in [...]

the 7 things series… a struggle through media consumption

7 Media Reductions Adullam Southwest May 16, 2010 @10:00am ————– For the month of June, we will be taking a look at 7 reductions of Media. I have to admit – I LOVE MEDIA… Have everyone interact on what they think “media” constitutes. Not like news media, but like the instruments that entertain, help, make [...]

Good Friday…

Holy Week reflection…

If you are interested in the week and events that lead up to Jesus’ death and resurrection, here might [...]

“Tonight” by Jeremy Camp…

most who know me, know that I don’t have the most immense love for most christian music. It’s either so repetitive, void of any real life stories (everything is great and wonderful all the time, or if it’s not – it will be in like an hour… yeah right), or… never mind, this post is [...]

thoughts on “Jesus Loves You…” by Craig Gross and Jason Harper – PART 3

I find myself wanting to advocate justice for the hurting and pronouncing judgment on the religious. in this, i have become the very thing i despise… I am quick to offer grace to the rebellious and wayward. but i am slow in offering to the religious, if i offer it at all. yet i must. [...]

thoughts on “Jesus Loves You…” by Craig Gross and Jason Harper – PART 2

I find it interesting and completely hypocritical that some yell the loudest about this area of culture, all the while ignoring other blatant cultural atrocities. Why pick on this sin as opposed to others? I have never seen picket signs and petitions protesting overeating or gossip or adultery. Most won’t find it too shocking to [...]

thoughts on “Jesus Loves You…” by Craig Gross and Jason Harper – PART 1

Doesn’t matter what you do or who you are: Jesus. Loves. You. And there’s the summery of the book. See ya!! Just kidding… well in a way I am. I wanted to pull a few quotes and thoughts from the book I liked (and make a few comments if needed), but essentially that is it [...]
