Movies don’t generally live up to their hype anymore, and as a result I don’t get excited about movies or the pricetag that comes with seeing them as a new release. If we do make it to the theater, you can bet on it being a dollar flick. I know the experience isn’t up to par and sometimes the reels are dirty or whatever, but [...]

Wisdom is an interesting companion. Dictionary.com’s first definition reads as follows:
the quality or state of being wise; knowledge of what is true or right coupled with just judgment as to action; sagacity, discernment, or insight.
More than just knowledge, rather erudition coupled with perspicaciousness. I think this is a good summation of Biblical God-Given wisdom as well. People all over the known world sought Solomon’s advice; [...]

I need to:
* Weed-eat the yard since the lawn mower went kaput
* Find someone to fix my lawn mower
* If it’s not cheap, buy new lawn mower instead
* Meet buddies for breakfast
* Jog with said buddies after breakfast
* Library as always
* Meet with pastor of Church 4
* Read many pages of a book I’m currently reading

how my words can be so passionate but my actions so apathetic…
I need to revolt against myself.

(none of those questions were rhetorical)

At this point we have eliminated all of the easily visible churches in our immediate area – i.e. – within a few block radius of us – either through visiting, website, or general understanding about a particular denomination. Dionna jumped online to scour for other nearby possibilities and found one about seven minutes from our house that looked promising. The website was a bit fruiffy [...]

Back in the day we used to pass a quaint little church not far from us on our way to our home church at the time. They didn’t seem flashy or over the top nor old school and set in their ways. Occasional advertisements of VBS or a special series let us know they weren’t completely dead. It seemed like it was worth a shot, [...]

We had another church picked out with an amazing location… only about 2 blocks from our house! Wouldn’t that be great! So I checked out the website on Saturday night and found a few snippets of the message… I listened to about five minutes of it and it was evident that this was not the place for us…
The next morning, we headed to another church [...]

(As i wrote today I couldn’t help but feel it would seem as if I was writing a review or critique of a church, which doesn’t exactly leave a good taste in my mouth. However, I am hoping to invite you along and delve into the same conversations we’d have if you joined us physically at these churches. Please feel free to ask specific questions, [...]

With the diverse backgrounds and subsequent experiences, you’d think it would be difficult for us to agree on what is important. Thankfully we’re both level headed and see the flaws in our own background as well as the positive aspects.
I know that the Charismatic scene is not something that makes sense to most people and it often confuses emotional experience with foundational relationship (man do [...]
