If your world is falling apart, talk to someone.

0

  If your world is falling apart, talk to someone. I’m not writing this to make you feel good. Let’s just get that out of the way. I’m writing this specifically for someone, maybe a few someone’s, even though I truthfully do not know who any of you are. Yes, to a degree I have […]

Text Messages

0

Did you ever experience that moment when you receive a text message from someone obviously meant for someone else? Most of us can relate; we get a message that was supposed to be from one friend to another friend, or even better, one friend to their spouse. Sometimes it takes us a minute to understand what is […]

Memorial Day

0

Imagine applying for an employment opportunity that took you away from your family, put you on call for 24 hours a day, and required you to sleep at the work site. The food really isn’t great, the job sites are not safe, and there isn’t a whole lot of vacation time. Incomes are low, and […]

I Want To Give You The Credit For This

0

Some things in this world used to be really important to me; now I have new priorities. The more I watch other people racing to take credit or basking in applause and accolades, the less I realize I want any of it. We all hate when someone filibusters during a discussion to take a rabbit […]

I’d Love To Be There, But The Answer Is NO

5

Some things in this world used to be really important to me; now I have new priorities. I used to think if I wasn’t at every event it would look like I wasn’t on top of things or could get accused of showing favoritism or whatever. I just don’t care anymore. I can’t be out […]

You Graduated!

0

It is May 2012 and the end is here for so many students. The end of all-nighters (studying and partying), $60 books, tuition fees, “interesting” professors and roommates, weirder work schedules, hours at the library, and sitting/sleeping/texting/emailing/blogging/Facebooking/etc. through lectures. It’s over. You’ve made some incredible friends for life, you’ve changed so much from four (give […]

That’s Great, But…

Some things in this world used to be really important to me; now I have new priorities. So you hate this guy’s tattoos or that guy’s hair. So what? So you’re convinced that every accomplished Greek Scholar at Dallas Theological Seminary is wrong and misread the Bible when it said Jesus made wine and not […]

I’m Not Feeding Consumerism

0

Some things in this world used to be really important to me; now I have new priorities. In the ministry where I used to serve, I didn’t have gigantic staff or budget (by Dallas Megachurch standards, let alone Western NY), and I didn’t hide in a dark room at 2:00am to stare lustfully at the websites […]

I’m So NOT Interested In Whining

0

Some things in this world used to be really important to me; now I have new priorities. I just don’t want to do this. Folks, all this that we do: it isn’t about us, or you, or me. Live with this as a core value and I’m not sure you’ll be playing victim nearly as […]

I’m NOT Arguing With These People Anymore

0

Some things in this world used to be really important to me; now I have new priorities. I get email from a lot of people. Occasionally I get email from some really weird people. I’ve read email demanding I convert to another religion, email about our music, email about how we should or shouldn’t do things from strangers, and […]
