Good News for those in Sinking Boats. CAVEAT: This analogy isn’t perfect. And I don’t know if I’ve heard anything like this before, but please let me know if you have, so I can link to it. So, Captain Jesus pulls alongside in his leak-proof Ship. He extends a hand and invites us out of our leaky boats, into his leak-proof Ship. Here is where we make our most important choice: do we accept or reject his offer for assistance? I say “mostly” because they are still unlearning a lot of the habits ...Some peop...

Pi points to the infinite | notes on life
https://guitarmanvt.wordpress.com/2015/06/19/pi-points-to-the-infinite
Pi points to the infinite. My name is John. We probably just met. Maybe we swapped business cards. But a. Business card doesn’t really tell you about someone. So, here’s this. It’s. A bit of my story. I hope you like it and maybe you can relate to some of it. But first…a picture! Yes, that’s me in the reflection. I love doing that! This sticker jumped out at me in a random parking lot. I’m definitely a math geek, which helps me do my job as a computer programmer. Why is (π) pi never-ending? Pi is a sign ...

The Adventures of Charlotte Mom: September 2013
http://charlottemom.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 28, 2013. Family: Dinner Date with my Lovely Lady. I got a rare opportunity to have some special alone time with my oldest, Ella! I let her pick the restaurant and she picked Nothing But Noodles! She really only likes to eat there cause they have chopsticks and special holders that teach you how to use them. Anything that she can me a game out of, she is down for! We also brought our Just Mom and Me book and took turns "getting to know each other" and asking fun questions! In true CTW...

Have you ever been in a tornado, hurricane, earthquake or really big storm? What does it look like to have a storm in your life? Why is a storm a good description for those events? The speaker said we are all in one of three places. Which one of these best describes you and your family right now? A You are currently in the middle of a storm. B A storm is coming and you don’t know about it. C Or you are just walking away from a storm that has blown through. Read Philippians 4:12-13.). February 16, 2009.

Kenya Summer Mission Trip « Greg King
https://kingme.wordpress.com/2009/03/16/kenya-summer-mission-trip
Kenya Summer Mission Trip. Seems like I have been answering this question so much lately I decided to post the information here. This past year I went on a vision trip for our church with the 410 Bridge. The goal of that trip was to come back with a village that we could partner with for the next three years. God led us to the village of Kandaria, and this summer I will be leading the first trip for our church to Kenya. What Will I Do? How Much Does it Cost? A State of Emergency. March 16, 2009. You are ...

Just came across a stat that has me dreaming about what needs to change in the local church to help people become the aroma of Christ. The stat is that 84% of outsiders know a Christian, only 15% of them see a marked change in their lifestyle from the rest of the secular world. I cannot stop thinking about Mary anointing Jesus with expensive fragrances in John 12:3. Now picture the scene in John 12. I know I don’t have all the answers but its time for us to start thinking new thoughts. May 26, 2009.

Smash Qwirkle! | notes on life
https://guitarmanvt.wordpress.com/2015/07/23/smash-qwirkle
Is a great game for all ages. But for really young kids, it can be too slow. So, we have developed a game called “Smash Qwirkle” for the younger kids. The goal is to end the game with the tallest tower. Towers are made by stacking up tiles of the same shape. The “star” tiles are “smash” tiles. You don’t stack those. You throw them at other people’s towers and try to knock them down. In serial mode, each person in turn takes one tile from the bag and plays it. Feed You can leave a response.

Praying from Your Heart | Soaring Above
http://www.soaringabove.net/2012/02/25/praying-from-your-heart
Praying from Your Heart. On Feb 25th, 2012 in Featured Articles. Our church, Five Stones. Is currently in a series based on Mark Batterson’s book The Circle Maker. It is about being bold in our prayers. During our last small group meeting, the question of how specific we should be in our prayer request came up. This has always been a struggle for me. Is it appropriate for me to pray asking for a specific job? Or should my prayers be generic and ask for a job that is best suited for me? I believe we shoul...

Teaching the Elephants to Dance. Like powerful elephants churches are bound by earlier restraints. The statement “We have always done it this way” is limiting to a churches progress. What happens over time is that church becomes paralyzed to the change that is taken place around them and quickly find themselves no longer being essential to the culture they are called to reach. To the younger generation the church slowly begins to look irrelevant to their lives. May 18, 2009. Francis Chan’s Blog.
