A COUPLE OF THINGS BEFORE I GO TO BED//
#1. We know a lot of people are praying for Isaac and for us. It’s down to the last issue. As previously stated, he’s had some heart rate drops that are keeping him from passing his car seat test. Tonight was no different. I talked to the nurse about 15 minutes ago and he made [...]
BEST SHAVING STORY EVER//

WHAT I NEEDED TODAY//
I just received an email from a friend and fellow Christ-follower and music snob. This is what it said: Subject: Have you seen this? [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-lY8VQpSTY&hl=en&fs=1] Thanks, Tim. It’s what I needed today. -PJT//
PICTURES OF YOUR OWN S#*+?
About a week ago, I was having coffee with a friend that told me he told me about a 20-something nephew that takes picture of his poop. Obviously, post-movement. In the toilet. He documents them. Keeps files on his computer. And, he shares them with people. Weirdest and one of the funniest things I’ve ever [...]
EASTER*//
I’m starting to see how the insanely complex concept of EASTER can really be boiled down to just a few simple things. EASTER IS ABOUT HOPE. JESUS WON A BATTLE FOR YOU ON EASTER. WE ARE ALL CHOSEN ON EASTER. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQ9t950bfm8&hl=en&fs=1] Our spiritual adoption is something for which we sign on the line. It’s not [...]
God used Facebook to Punch Me in the Face.
I recently heard sin described as “missing the mark.” Which really explains how integral grace is for us. We need grace. PERIOD. Not deserve it. We can’t expect it. But, need we need it; can’t live without it. It then makes me realize that when I get more concerned about how the “service went [...]
Yesterday
There are days that make it a little better to be alive. Yesterday was one of those for me. 1. The new U2 album “No Line On The Horizon” came out. iTunes began my pre-ordered download at 11:57pm on Monday. I then sat up until 2am Tuesday listening to it drink in hand in my [...]
Those times when you don't know what to say.
The last week or so, has been a bit odd for. I’m RARELY short on words, but I’ve found myself not knowing what to say… to blog… in conversation… just speaking/verbalizing anything has been weird for the few rotations of the earth. Maybe part of it was the break in routine being in Atlanta Mon [...]
What 48 hours watching can do for your soul
Just before 11pm last night, I pulled into the driveway after being in @lanta, …er… NOT-HOTlanta (whatever it’s called now) from a conference put on by churchplanters.com. Typically, I’m pretty skeptical of “do this” conferences where people (i.e. pastors) come together and watch/learn and 99% of them take it home and try to “cookie cutter”, [...]
