Idea: What if a church body blogged?March 3, 2008
As I set out to write some blog posts about issues of church and faith, I wonder what the response would be if you asked a church body to individually write down things they're thinking about over a period of a month, and then get together and spend an hour taking turns reading out entries from those journals. Thoughts, questions, ideas, encouragement, struggles. You could do the same thing with a youth group, perhaps.
Idiot's guide to prayerMarch 3, 2008
As I was standing in line at the grocery store yesterday I noticed the
Idiot's guide to prayer sitting there at the checkout. How odd, I thought, for a book on prayer to be staring at you in the supermarket, and not even in the book section. (Yes, Zehr's has a book section oddly enough) Prayer has always been a topic that fascinates me... it's this thing that we all agree we should be doing more, but often we find it difficult to make a priority in our lives.
Injured shoulderMarch 3, 2008
The night after trying snowboarding for the first time, I headed to bed early -- I was pretty zonked. I woke up in the middle of the night with a very very sore shoulder. Where it came from I don't know, but when I got up in the morning I couldn't even hold my left arm in front of my body. Something was very wrong. I visited my chiropractor on Monday and he was baffled too, but over the next two weeks it has gotten much better and I now have most of my range of motion back. The shoulder is still weak and a little sore when I hold my arm up and to the side, but hopefully it will be back to 100% soon. When it's back in action, I think I'll slowly start back into the pushups.
