Pat Vance Widescreen: "We was robbed!"

http://patvance.blogspot.com/2014/01/we-was-robbed.html

A blog about aspect ratios in life. Friday, January 24, 2014. Last Monday in the early morning hours our church was broken into and several big ticket audio/visual items were taken. My associate and I spent the morning filling out police and insurance reports…nice way to start the week! How thoughtless and self-serving can you be? Don’t you care about the trouble you have caused? And don’t you feel extra guilty stealing from a church for goodness sake? How come the bad guys get to do this stuff?

A blog about aspect ratios in life. Monday, August 1, 2011. Mercy and the Wise and and Foolish Person. On Sunday I led a panel discussion on the biblical topic of justice which got us into talking about God's mercy. I made the point that God's mercy and grace are extended even to people we might deem undeserving by virtue of their own self-indulgence and or laziness. In response the following questions were emailed to me to which I am responding in this post. Here is what was asked:. The Bible says that ...

A blog about aspect ratios in life. Saturday, December 25, 2010. The Way of Peace. Its Christmas Day 2010 and I am thinking of the angelic announcement,.

Anyway you translate it the idea is of course that with Jesus' birth the possibility of peace among humans is enhanced, perhaps even truly enabled. But how? The Way of Peace.

This is a prayer my friend and pastoral associate Brent Johnson recently wrote in remembrance of 9/11. As we reflect on that tragic day, in the face of such profound evil, such horrific destruction, such great sorrow, it’s so easy for us to ask, Where are you, God? When Jesus on the cross cried out in anguish, “My God, why have you forsaken me? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A blog about aspect ratios in life. Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Father's Day Penguins and the Story That Matters. Penguins are cool…counterintuitive little critters. They have wings, but they use them for swimming not flying. In fact they are the fastest bird swimmer out there at 15-20 mph (try that Michael Phelps). Penguins dress for the opera, but are actually outfitted for stealth (does that make them the 007’s of the animal realm? Penguins live in community and often mate for life. In our 39 years of m...
