While You're At Church

Pastors: don't you just HATE it when you get to church TWO hours early to prepare and your hair & makeup team haven't even done the Starbucks run yet!



While You're At Church is a series of blog posts where I talk about what is happening on Sunday mornings so you don't miss anything. I hope its a good opportunity for reflection and conversation.

While You're At Church


I gathered some not-so-common yet entirely-more-reasonable responses to, "Christ Is Risen":

1. Oh yeah, I saw that on the news.
2. Already? Its 6am!
3. I didn't know he was down
4. Chris who?
5. Great! Lets get brunch
6. Yeah, he does that every year. Its not groundhog day.
7. I hope he showered first.
8. Don't call it a comeback
9. Did the Easter bunny bring him?
10. Is he pissed about Friday?

Which one is your favorite?
Any to add?

While You're At Church

Quote from the sermon I preached: "If people weren't telling stories of how Jesus changed their lives there wouldn't have been a triumphal entry. There would've just been another hippie going to church on a donkey"

While You're At Church wk.5

Kendra and I started a month-long mind/body/spirit cleanse. This week is raw food only. Which means mostly fruits and veggies. We cut out dairy, wheat, gluten, sugar, caffeine, and negativity. Cheers to our first experience of beet juice!
