Crowded Faith

A few weeks ago I had my first train experience.  Well, I'm just full of all kind of firsts lately. It was pretty neat.  If it were possible, I would make it necessary to ride it each week.  Oh, the places I would go, right?  I doubt, however, I would want to go anywhere if I knew the experience would be something like this video.  Crowded Train Japanese Crowded Train Tony P: Neosonic | MySpace Video What areas in my life are...

Christian Worship

4/21/2010 0
The worship of God in the Christian Church has been formed and reformed, constructed and reconstructed by time and culture. Believers have shared foundational understandings of faith and practice. What is shared in belief, however, is expressed and articulated in a variety of manners. The result is a myriad of styles, customs and understandings surrounding the ideas and functions of worship in the life of members of the Church. Often, for many people,...

When It Will Be Silent

We will be taking time to study Revelation this week in class. I came across this video entitled When It Will Be Silent. It's a love story, I suppose. This is the kind of thing people start thinking about when the book of Revelation, end times and all that is brought up. There is more hope that that!

Texas Stadium Implosion

I still haven't had time to drive by to see what it looks like without the stadium there. The Fletchers all hopped in the Minivan with thousands of our neighbors to watch the implosion of Texas Stadium. That was a first for me. I understand being sentimental; I do. But I don't understand how some people get all emotional when talking about this stadium (or lack there of). No, it's not because I am a loud mouth Eagles fan. We won some pretty good games...

My First American Idol Post

4/09/2010 0
I kick myself every week for not having made this post earlier. Last year we got into the American Idol thing. Music is a big part of our family. So, we like to listen to what these singers can do. I don't care much for the judging panel; it's pretty ridiculous that nine times out of ten I know what each judge will say (their witty humor excluded, of course).  Yo! This is not a boast. But you should know I'm not just pulling names. Last year I...

Let's Listen to a Book

4/06/2010 0
What are your impressions of audio books? Up to now I have never heard one. However, I recently downloaded my first audio book. The driving factor was the cost; it was free. I’ve made reference to John Acuff's website before (stuffchristianslike.net). Along with countless other people I have been a reader probably since the website was launched. His writing is not only funny, but quite able to speak to a lot of what is quirky about our faith, or about...

Holy Week Music Monday

Here are some of the highlights from our church's Easter services. The first is from Easter Sunday. It is of Brittani singing God of the Sparrow, God of the Whale (United Methodist Hymnal #122). The second is from our Good Friday service. She is singing When I Survey the Wondrous Cross set to the tune of Gift of Love (UMH #408). Finally, this song was offered during our Maundy Thursday as an invitation to Communion. All in all, I was...
