Wednesday, September 24, 2008. Saturday, September 13, 2008. Just yesterday while Elijah was eating some crackers at the table I asked him to stand up and go to the bathroom. He said, "I can't dad.". Because dad, then the crumbs will fall on the ground and then we'll have to get a mouse to clean them up. and then we'll have to get a cat to find the mouse. and then Bailey will chase the cat and then you'll have to clean up all the blood. so I can't get up.". Saturday, September 06, 2008. Walatka's blog (O...

Mindless labor kills the soul. The far side of nowhere. Things i’m tired of. February 9, 2009. I’m really tired of 3-point sermons. Why do they have to be 3 points? Why not 1 or 5 or 9? Is it because we believe in the Trinity, and so, our sermons should reflect that; as if to say having a three part sermon might make it more holy? And why do they have to be points anyway? Why can’t a pastor just talk to me like we’re having a conversation? Church first, God second. February 6, 2009. Do we pray to God dur...

Mindless labor kills the soul. The far side of nowhere. Dandelions and a wii. Dandelions and a wii. May 3, 2009. I had a bad day last week. This spring season, I’ve been having a hard time winning the battle for my yard, and it seems as though the dandelions are winning. So, last Tuesday, I race home from work to mow my lawn and spread around a bag of the weed-and-feed that I bought to kill these things. I wasn’t very amused. I was not a happy camper. Should I save a life or end one? Do you ever notice t...

Mindless labor kills the soul. The far side of nowhere. Demographics and Trans-Siberian Orchestra. September 25, 2009. I was listening to an interview on my way to work this morning on a local rock station. The interview was with Paul O’Neil; composer, lyricist, and producer for Trans-Siberian Orchestra. During part of the interview he said, “One day my partner and I were looking at our average demographic and it was 12 year olds. And I said, ‘Are you sure this is right? May 25, 2009.

Mindless labor kills the soul. The far side of nowhere. Church first, God second. Church first, God second. February 6, 2009. A couple of months ago my wife and I were watching the movie. It made me wonder how often our church services are like that. How often are they more about being a production than meeting with God in community? When did prayer become the bookends of our “services”? Why is it just something we do to kick off church, and bring it to an end? February 9, 2009 at 7:05 pm. By talking abo...
