http://tiedyedpastor.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 22, 2011. The End of the World As We Know It. Some say the world will end in fire,. Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of desire. I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice,. I think I know enough of hate. To say that for destruction ice. If anyone is interested, we are planning an "end of the world" party for May 20th. You're all invited). But it must be the end of the world, right? There is unrest in the Middle East (like that has never happened before). B...

Pastor Tim's Rant-of-the-Week: June 2011
http://tiedyedpastor.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 21, 2011. Pastors love to talk about their congregations. We usually lie through our teeth, but we still love it when you ask us a question that opens the door for us to tell you all about the wonderful things we are up to. But I seriously threw off a fellow pastor the other day when he asked me a very common question. "What style of worship does your church use? Now my new-found friend understood the reference. Jesus tells a Samaritan woman. But the problem I have is that if one more perso...

Thursday, April 7, 2011. Human Life as a Bottom Line Item. The following is a requested reprint of a newletter article I wrote a couple of weeks ago.

Now Love Me Dammit! Tuesday, October 30, 2012. Smartass. . . And a PAIN in the ass. It’s unavoidable in my job that every staff will have certain kids they enjoy working with more than others.

http://includedbygrace.blogspot.com/2013/03/the-centrality-of-cross-and-centrality.html
Into the fellowship of the Father,Son and Holy Spirit. Sunday, March 31, 2013. The Centrality of the Cross and the Centrality of Christ.

Paul even described it ". as of first importance. that Christ died for our sins." 1 Corinthians 5:3. Yet, Jesus' death is not the complete story . It is just a part of a whole. Graduat...
