Manic Monday Minute is a serious mind-dump that will probably take you one minute to read. Here are some thoughts going through my head right now...
Its the Manic Monday Minute. What a great weekend. My pastor spoke on "suffering" this past Sunday. Great message. I think God was preparing the Redskins for their loss against the Cowboys. [ouch!] ;=) I met a couple today who told me they are living out of their car. I nearly cried. After further talking with the gentleman he told me that he is a former youth minister. My heart hurt even more. Please pray for them. I literally slipped on a banana peel today. No kidding. I called a guy today in South Carolina to touch base with him. Got his voicemail. He called me back later and was upset at me because he was deer hunting at the time when I called. HA! A good friend texted me today and told me that I am quoted in Mark Oestreicher's new book, Youth Ministry 3.0 (page 100!) Not sure what I said... but its in there! Go buy the book. I had wings tonight. I am a happy man. Today is my sister, Christina's, birthday. Birthday shoutout! Happy Birthday also to my cousin, Carol and my friend Vicki Millwood. I paid my car off this past weekend. I'm on my way to being debt free baby! Got a trip planned to South Carolina for Thanksgiving & MY Birthday (December 1st, by the way!). Should be fun... Had an incredible meeting with local pastors today. Loved our discussion.
Read a story today about a pastor who fired six members of his staff. Woah. Pray for that church during this time. Working hard on our Christmas party plans. Can't wait! I love this vid of Tony Campolo's talk. What a great message. Someone left me an annonymous comment today. While I'm okay with those wishing to remain annonymous it would be nice to know your identity. :=) The MMM use to be delivered much earlier. Sorry. Now I compose it throughout the day and you get it delivered just before the clock strikes midnight. Heading to bed soon! Sweet dreams.
