Communication and Oil Spills

admin — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 14:14:59 +0000

Sometimes I feel like I only get part of the story. I really feel this way when it comes to BP, the US Government and the Deepwater Horizon. Doesn’t the name itself just sound like one of those watergate scandals waiting to happen. 20 years from now legislators will be saying things like:

Well, we all remember what happened during “Deepwater Horizon” 20 years ago. Let’s not repeat that.

Sad part is, 20 years from now I still won’t feel like I know the whole story. I guess what I’m trying to say is what the heck happened Paul Harvey and “The Rest of the Story.”

Just for future reference… To BP, the US Government, and whatever super secret government agency is in charge of making sure we only know what you want us to know thank you for being so good at bad communication. Here’s a video tribute to you.

Playing with Dynamite

So I found this video via a friend. My favorite part is when they interview the highway foreman his thoughts. Here are his words:

Well I’m confident that it’ll work. the only thing is we’re not exactly sure how much explosives it’ll take to disintegrate this thing.

Famous last words. I don’t want to steal the reporter’s punch line so I’ll just let you watch the video.

It reminds me of that verse in Proverbs 19.

Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.

I know I’ve felt like that sometimes. Covered in Dead Whale after my well conceived plan blew up!

Also, when blowing up a whale use a LOT of dynamite!

Insanity

admin — Tue, 18 May 2010 13:23:16 +0000

So some of our friends have started this new work out. It’s called “Insanity.” I got to see a little of the video and it lives up to the name.

I think insanity, the workout and the word, says a lot about who we are in the world we live in today. Nuff said.

Here the closing thought. Is the pace you live at insanity? Is that what God is calling us to?

Success = Spiritual Influence

admin — Mon, 17 May 2010 14:01:18 +0000

In many ministries today it seems like our measuring rod is the numbers. You know what i’m talking about. When you ask a pastor how his church is doing he says something along the lines of: ”Well, we’re doing pretty good. We’ve got about x number of people.”

The challenge of a next generation leader is to erase in their own mind of the lie that numbers = success. Yes, in church world numbers do = lives, and we’ll always celebrate when God blesses with people. However, the greater responsibility of a leader is to have spiritual influence.

When we talk to parents about family ministry, we don’t say have more kids then you will be successful. We say gain spiritual influence in your child’s life. Then you will be successful. We should do the same with leaders at a churchwide level.

Gain spiritual influence or to echo the words of the Bible.

Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

My Thoughts on “Hosanna”

admin — Tue, 04 May 2010 14:45:03 +0000

So I love listening to and worshipping with BODers on Sunday. I get a semi-cool perspective since I’m sometimes up in the tech booth. Here’s my latest thought.

So we’re worshipping to “Hosanna” a week or so ago and if you’re like me you usually pay attention to the first verse and it always seems like… “well that author or songwriter put his most powerful words in the first verse…right?… because he/she wants to capture his audience and get them praising God.”

This particular time though, I caught myself waiting for the second verse. Knowing what was coming.

I see a generation, rising up to take it’s place
with selfless faith, selfless faith
I see a near revival stirring as we pray and seek
we’re on our knees, on our knees.

As I watched from the tech booth that morning that’s what I saw taking place. It wasn’t just words. it was happening right there, as students and parents and children and me we’re all answering a call. The call of my generation. rising up and worshipping.

So what’s your favorite worship songs or words that get you raising your hands and yearning for a generation to rise?

Pursuit…

admin — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 15:32:40 +0000

I heard a great question the other day.

What do you pursue?

Many times we ask: What are your goals? ambitions? In other words what do you want to do.

These are great questions, but as I explore their answers personally I find myself with a long list of to-do’s. I’ve made new year’s resolutions, and had significant points in my life where I can say I’ve decided to change. At the end of the day though asking yourself what you pursue gives you a better idea of where you will be in ten years.

So here’s my list short list. My top 5.

1. Relationship with God (no brainer)

2. Realtionship with my wife and family (no brainer)

3. Bringing other to relationship with Christ

4. Telling Story Creatively

5. Relationships with Friends

Do you see the common theme?? What’s your top five??

Tiger in the News gets Jesus in the news

admin — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 13:42:47 +0000

OK so I think by now the whole Tiger Woods scandal has had time to die down, but just when you think something… look out. I found this on through a fellow blogger watched it and thought “hmm… that’s the best TRUTH to come out of FOX News in a long time” What are your thoughts?
