My Time // I suck at managing it
I’m not good at managing my time…at all. Every morning, I think, what am I going do today and how am I going to make sure I get it all done. Then there is a tentative schedule planned out in my head. Usually, I get through the first task and then I’m off for the [...]
How To Be Creative // apparently I’m going to have to read it again
One of my frustrations in life is that I love creativity, I’m always trying to be creative, and yet I don’t feel like I’m really that good at it. So, I try to read anything and watch anything or do anything I can that will spur on the thought processes and expand my brain outside [...]
weekly live broadcast of practice // just because its fun to broadcast bad audio
Here we are again, poor audio and all. But you get the point by now.
The Entitlement Bug // getting over myself
Normally I would label a post like this, “Jesus Thoughts” as it was provoked out of my reading in Luke this morning. But this title seemed more appropos to the journey I’m on right now as well as a few people I know. Luke is writing down the story of Jesus and places the parable [...]
Ed Young on Marriage // well, sex in marriage, but its not dirty
Warning. If your kids read this, I’m just saying that it might have some “adult” content depending on whether you’ve had “that conversation.” I admit it, I used to copy ideas from blog posts that I would read when I couldn’t come up with anything. I don’t like to do that, but this post was [...]
Carpe Diem Part Deaux // I freakin’ siezed the day
That’s right, I said it! I freakin siezed the day and went and got a new style on top of my head. I’ve been growing the hair out for a while, but it was getting long and really bothering me. So, this is me before going to Streak. This is me after going to Streak [...]
Ruined for the Ordinary // never be the same
It’s a little unclear to me who first said, “I’ve been ruined for the ordinary.” As far as I can tell, there has been at least one book released with this title as well as an album, along with a multitude of blogs following along the same idea. I heard it the other day from [...]
Toddlers and Tiaras // I’m freaked out right now
Have you seen this Toddlers and Tiara’s show on TLC? I haven’t. But when we’re Kristen’s watching Jon and Kate Plus 8, they run commercials for this show. Watch this clip. Every time I see this commercial, these little kids freak me out. It’s like watching the movie Chuckie played out in real life. I [...]
The Book Tour // one extremely painful area of growth
Last night I finished up week four of the One Book A Week For A Year Tour. Once again this is a completely made up title that is more a descriptor of the task at hand rather than a real title. I must start with a confession, however. It feels like I may have already [...]
Jesus Thoughts // He wasn’t crazy
Jesus was not crazy…but I confess that sometimes He comes across as quite confusing and difficult to understand as I read through Luke’s version of Jesus’ life, and sometimes I can see why people thought he was crazy. Someone’s thinking that last statement is sacrilegious, and I’m certain that at some level it probably is, [...]
