We were so disappoited to have been unable to be there. Nonetheless it looks as though you’ve taken on the mantle with appropriate solemnity. I have no doubt you’ll do your utmost to proclaim the Word and to empower those saints to minister as well. Blessings.

Yup, and Hope was, in turn, beaten by the eventual D3 hoops champ, so we’re in good company.

Excellent thoughts!

May God’s richest blessings be yours as you reflect on the extent of His love demonstrated through the death His Son on the cross and the awesomeness of His power exhibited through the resurrection.

To God be the glory!

Hey Scott:
So…I’ll admit I’ve been blog-stalking you for a few months now, but just thought this would be a good time to leave a first comment. I was excited to read that you are incorporating a bit of the liturgical tradition into your church’s service tonight. I am part of an Anglican Community here in Wheaton (Church of the Resurrection) and have been really moved so far by experiencing the church’s Lenten and Holy Week traditions. You are right about the Lord’s Supper: we took it last night at the Maundy Thursday service, as well as feet washing. I just got back from a stations of the cross service which was a very neat way to enter into and pray through the hours preceding Christ’s death. I have found in general that participating in these Anglican traditions for the first time in my life has made this season of Lent and Holy Week an especially somber but spiritually rewarding time for me. I hope you and your congregation also find that true tonight. Blessings, Catie T.

Received the church paper today and was reading about your blog and sermon podcasts and so decided to check it out — was great to hear your induction sermon — could also picture your folks there as well. Thanks for the encouragement.

Wanted to just say too that we just discovered this “book furniture” site last fall and thought it was great and so too have shared with quite a few fellow book lovers!! : )

I wish I could’ve been there. I wish you the best and I pray that God guides and protects you as you start your ministry.

Comment on 64 Things I Wish Someone Had Shared With Me 10 Years Ago by Don Elser

Hmmm….interesting…i’m going to have to check this out. I tried to use the links but it didn’t work. Because I’m visual, I like the redesign idea. Keeps things fresh and mixed up and interesting. Flipside…if our lives are fresh and mixed up and interesting enough with our involvement in advancing the Kingdom…maybe it wouldn’t matter as much if things got changed every three years. Shhh….don’t tell the board, though.
I’m off to Google Brian Jones 64 Things…thanks!

Comment on Some Southern Drivers Are Too Nice by coffeeshoptheologian

Seriously… “Drive first, friends later” seems rather important if we’re gonna still be around to be friends later.

Teaching my daughter to drive … I keep telling her that what she wants is for people to be able to predict what she’s going to do. That means: when it’s your turn, take it … take it with authority.

This niceness stuff your mentioning is entirely unpredictable and, therefore, deadly.

I’m with you, Scott. Just drive. We’ll be friends later.
