'm looking forward to Christmas Eve at Spanish River Church. At our services today (2, 4, 6, 8) I'll be sharing that Jesus is The Best Gift Ever, and because of Him there are three things we never have to do (okay, that's about as much "sneak peek" as your going to get).
I know . . . it's not the best picture I have taken, but it's not about the picture. It is about the invite.
Have you noticed how A & E has no problem letting you know what it believes about Phil Robertson? Ditto for every song writer and every film maker when it comes to expressing their worldviews. I am seeing this trend more and more.
If you thought Michael Jordan's retirement from basketball was short-lived, or Brett Farve's first retirement from football was "lightning quick" . . . Nah! That's like breaking the sound barrier compared to how long I was out of circulation.
That's it . . . I'm finished. Done. Retired. I've resigned my official duties as the D.P.
What is a D.P.? It is a Designated Prayer. That's the pastor's job you know! When the pastor shows up at an event -- a dinner, a wedding, a ball game, a gala -- you can count on it, someone is going to ask him: "Will you lead us in prayer?"
I have been hearing the word "lucky" a lot lately. It rolls off the tongue as easy as "peanuts, cracker jacks, ice cold beer" flows from the mouth of a ballgame vendor. Luck seems to come in all shapes and sizes.
