I really wanted our church and youth group to do this, but it just never happened. At least now we know it would be okay. The NFL will allow church groups to show the Super Bowl on large-screen televisions, reversing a policy that drew criticism from elected officials.In a letter to U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said the league will no longer object to "live showings -- regardless of screen size -- of the Super Bowl" by religious...
Now, you know me (perhaps), and you know I'm not one to criticize others. But the latest Southwest Airlines episode will have to be an exception. I don't know the whole story; I don't believe I care to. But just on the surface, it would seem the rest of us don't realize the world revolves around people like the two young ladies who were supposedly banned for life from the airline.And! I don't like to call anyone names. So, I'll let you read this quote...
Boys II Men are my favorite, and Brian McKnight is a very good vocalist and musician. Here both of them are having a good time with a great song (one of my favorites). Does anyone have a copy of the original from Cooley High? I'm not sure our local video store (yes, just one) would have that movie so I could record it that way. Anyways, enjoy.Song VideoStay blessed...j...
I've been arranging things for the 30 Hour Famine; it's coming this Friday! In that process I have had to go into our storage room. I thought I would show you what I did with some of the excess I found.Now, we'll have fun putting that all back Saturday evening. Stay blessed...j...
Our church is looking to finish paying off the Fellowship Hall within the next year and a half or so. I wonder if there's anything like this lying around our campus we could get a couple of bucks for. Of course, my other thought is...I can't even hang stuff on my walls!Dwindling donations to the Living Word Christian Center in Brooklyn Park have prompted its high-profile pastor, Mac Hammond, to put his private business jet on the market.Church spokesman...
For those who look forward to seminars and Annual Conference...because you get to stay in hotels....
This website is worthWhat is your website worth?This is something that has come to mind over recent weeks. No, not the value of this blog. But the value of each our contributions to the Church.I'm thankful for all those people who have decided to contribute their energy, time, creativity, skills, insights, opinions (careful) and work. Even beyond that it takes a lot, I believe, for someone to be willing to just try something new. Someone tried a pre-school...
We've launched our youth group's (Generation X) new website. It's called What Monkeys Can't Do.Of course, it's a place for our youth group members and friends can hook up and share stuff, but it's also a place where you (yes YOU, where YOU are) can send your youth members without having to worry about what they might see. It's also fun for me because it'll give me a chance to post more immature things than I would here. For example:And just to keep the...
