Each day...a new page...a new chapter. And gradually, as I live each moment, the story is written. My prayer is that you get to know the author - welcome.

Brueggemann - "Preaching"
What are your thoughts?
If you are a preacher....what do you think?
As a person that attends worship....what do you think?
As a person serving on a "board" at church...what do you think?
This has been up for a couple days but I wanted to wait until I had time to watch it.
My thoughts are pretty simple. People have begun to view the pastor and vocational ministers as an outsourcing of the biblical mandate for their work in their local church and community.
Were as I believe that the biblical model is one where the pastor and ministry staff exist to empower people to do the things he mentioned as work for a pastor.
I used to define myself as a student, a physical therapist, a husband, a dad, a musician, an ACOA, a youth guy....but now I know that those are all just chapters of the story I find myself in - and that ultimately I am a child of God.
Welcome to the journey.
