Clear Your Head!

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." ~Philippians 4:6 I did something last week I'd never done before--I took a day off from work (both jobs), left the house early in the morning, and spent most of the day in a local park. I took a cooler full of water, my Bible, and a journal. And that was it. No phone. No iPad. Nothing that would distract me from what I needed to do. I really needed to clear my head. I work a full-time job, and about six months ago, I became a part-time bi-vocational pastor of a small town Baptist church. It's been a challenge balancing my time between those two roles, and making sure I still have time for my family and keeping the yard mowed. But I've sure enjoyed it. I like to be busy. And I've found a pretty good balance. I have time enough to do everything I need to do as a pastor, but I just don't have enough time to do everything

Mirror, Mirror!

"As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart. " ~Proverbs 27:19 Checking ourselves in a mirror is something most of us do every morning.

But there's another way people see us besides just our physical attributes--it's our character. It's how we act. It's how we treat other people. It's how we conduct ourselves. And while we're quick to notice a spot we missed shaving, or an eyebrow hair that needs plucked, we often fail to see flaws in our character. I'm dealing with a difficult person right now. Somebody I've known for a long time. Somebody I think a great deal of and respect greatly. Somebody that has come

Learning To Unplug The Tech and Reconnect To Life!

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful ~Colossians 3:15 (NIV) I was working at the church last week, and the secretary said I had a call. I took it, and as I'm talking I got up from behind the desk to go get another cup of coffee, and about three steps from my desk, the phone went flying out of my hand! The church still has a land line. For you youngsters, that means the phone is hooked to the wall with a cord. I grew up with those, but how quickly I had forgotten the limitations of that cord. I remember that freedom of getting my first cellular phone--being able to walk and talk and make a call or get a call anywhere. The possibilities seemed limitless on what I would be able to accomplish with this miraculous new tool! But I think about it differently now. Those phones quickly went from being a liberator to being a master. I was watching a group of young people at a bus shelter yesterday, and not
