ok, the worship team is now sick of my rantings… this post is also a result of our sunday morning chats. read pt.1 first. hosea 14 begins with a plea for God’s children to return to Him: “Return, O Israel, to the LORD your God, For you have stumbled because of your iniquity. Take words with [ READ MORE ]

bad read?

i’ve been complaining to the worship team about a book i’m reading–reading by choice, but finishing because of some inane compulsion to finish what i’ve started. the book is by no means an enjoyable read; it meanders along the winding paths and rabbit trails of an old-timey gospel preacher whose style is more front-porch-conversation than [ READ MORE ]

i had visions of grandeur, sitting in a cubicle just a few years ago, typing away for a young but growing company. a company who didn’t notice all the hard work, and even if someone had noticed, would offer no reward further than a longer job description. leading worship for a small church on weekends, [ READ MORE ]
