Life. Faith. Jesus.

That’s the question I think many of you have wondered.

Honestly, it’s the question I have wondered also. “Am I there yet?”

That is, have I finally gotten over my blogging funk? I’m not sure.

Thing is, I really want to write. I have ideas to talk about, but that’s just it—I want to talk about them.

I love me some good conversation.

I’ll find myself talking with my friends about inspiration, interpretation, theology, life, culture, etc. I seem to do just fine in conversation, and in reality, I like it better that way.

So when it comes to writing, I’m really not sure why I’m so stagnant. I do, however, have a few ideas as to why.

1. I was overwhelmed with writing papers for school.
2. Life was very, very busy.
3. I was doing some editing in my book.

Of all the writing for school I had to do, I was kind of burned out. Actually, I dropped one class just so that I could do well at my other classes.

And I am the one who broke it.

I love listening to sermons. Actually, I have 13 podcasts that I update and listen to regularly via iTunes. I sometimes listen to other resources, but these are the main people I listen to. They are:

I used to have many more, but I realized I only listened to these frequently.

Here’s the point: Read more

And my daughters hashed some out to me.

The other night, while I was reading bedtime stories to my children, they began to ask me questions about eternity. They know what happens to people when they die if they believe in Jesus, but I have not spent much time explaining the other end to them. I have done this intentionally. My oldest is only six years old. There’s no way I want them focusing on a subject as intense as hell. So, I figured when they would reach a certain age, or when they ask, I would just spill the beans!

They did. They asked. I answered.

And the weekend is sounding better even as I write this sentence.

Some of you may know this, but for those of you who don’t, I have finally found a job that pays more than $9.00-10/hr. I think this economy buzz causes people to not want to spend or hire, even when it IS safe. So, finding a job has been rather difficult. I started this Monday at a place that installs office furniture for commercial businesses. It’s not the desired job, but it renders that commodity we all like having: money (is money a commodity?).

I get to meet some new folks, hopefully create some relationships, and possibly even share the Gospel. Actually, I was able to do that with a person on my first day! I had no intentions on talking to this person about Jesus (just because it was my first day), but it came up and we talked about it! That was really cool, but what hasn’t been cool is the fact that I’ve been sick for about a week now. Read more

Man, I’m sure glad Heaven won’t be like this!

Many of you know I have been searching for work. Lately, I have been filling out applications. I recently filled one out for loss prevention. In this online application, I had to answer 65 questions as part of the application process. 65! Some applications take even longer! And you know what is more irritating about it? After you sit through 20-40 minutes of answering irrelevant questions, you never receive contact as was promised. Never. Ever. Never ever. Read more
