For the past several months I have been training to run in the Seattle Half Marathon. I use the term training pretty loosely because in the time that I began running, and the actual date of the race, my daughter was born, and I started grad school. So my schedule got pretty busy pretty fast,Continue reading “Half Marathon Reflections”

Grudges
“what do you do in a situation where you know someone holds a grudge against you that is unfounded?” Whether or not a grudge is founded or unfounded, there are some pretty clear scriptural guidelines, that we as Christ followers are supposed to follow. In Ephesians 4 we have some pretty good guidelines about whatContinue reading “Grudges”
Prisoner of Christ
At Creekside we have been experimenting with extending the dialogue on Sunday mornings. We’ve been playing with the idea of text messaging questions that people have from Sunday’s sermon. If you are interested in doing this check out PollEverywhere.com. Well I spoke on Philemon 1-7 this week and I received this question: In vs. 1 Continue reading “Prisoner of Christ”
High School Reunion . . . already?!
I graduated from the fine Kirkland institution known as Lake Washington High School. Yes, THE Lake Washington High School. Yes, THE home of the Purple Kangaroos. We were pretty awesome too. In 1999 I was senior class president. I kind of ran on a whim but I had a great time that year, andContinue reading “High School Reunion . . . already?!”
We talked about this a little
Alan Hirsch has a great post here. We discussed false prophets/success and idolatry in class last night.
Am I the lamest blogger ever?
Well maybe not, but I feel like I’ve been dropping the ball on the whole blog-o-sphere-a-verse lately. It’s been a pretty busy couple of weeks. Jocelyn was born a little early, I started my masters degree, and I am reading like a maniac. So when I do have free time to blog, I don’t reallyContinue reading “Am I the lamest blogger ever?”
Momentous Moment
this past weekend was pretty momentous for our ministry. We moved the last vestiges of >>beyond>> out of the storage room at our Northgate Campus. So why is that momentous? Because we will never have another youth group activity in that room. It’s a pretty big deal. We haven’t been using it for a whileContinue reading “Momentous Moment”
Great Post on the Shack and it’s Author
I appreciated the Shack for it’s display of the relationship between the trinity. It’s a book that has brough a lot of healing to a lot of souls. It’s controversial, and I get a lot of comments from people who don’t see the potential for grace in this text. Today I read this postContinue reading “Great Post on the Shack and it’s Author”
Without Words
Bobby G at Swerve had this great post. Right now, these are the questions I’m asking myself: If God took away my words would my life keep speaking? Would simply the way I live lead people to Christ? My days are filled with words, but words are overrated. Great question.
Ezekiel – God’s Hand Was On Him
I was reading this evening from Ezekiel. I just started going through this book and in a couple of passages, it says, The Hand of God Was On Him. How cool is that. If you know that Hand of God is on you, what can’t you do? If you know the Hand of God isContinue reading “Ezekiel – God’s Hand Was On Him”
