Tuesday musings

It is really hot outside! Really hot. Those who live in the Midwest get cabin fever after a long winter. Cabin fever is definitely settling in, at least in my life, as this record breaking heat continues.

We had our first young adult free for all on Sunday. Over 20 young adults encircled Pastor Brian and me and asked some very important, yet not so easy to answer, faith questions. For our first time, it went very well. I was extremely impressed with the depth to which our young adults want to go in their faith. I was not quite as impressed with the answers Brian and I fumbled to give. But the discussion was good. It will be fun to see where this thing goes.

Today, during our Pastor Buddies meeting, we looked at a story in which Jesus interrupted his sermon to heal a woman, and the flack he took for it. We all wondered what would happen if God interrupted our sermons and worship services with something like that! And shouldn't we really expect God to do that? At least occasionally?

It's really hot here.

Our Grace staff is on retreat for the next two days. I may or may not be able to "blog-in" during that time.

And if you want to listen to yourself talk, you can do so here and here. And I talked to Brian, too.
