Band Name

Well I'm actually able to consistently post again for a while hopefully until things start picking up for the summer.  Anyways I'm in a band and we're trying to find a really good, really meaningful name that is easy to remember.  So I'm asking you guys to either search the Bible or just think about good band names.  If one of you guys name our band, the person who names our band will receive a great prize that I'm still trying to think of.  As you come up with band names just leave a comment under this post no matter how long ago it is and even if I haven't posted in a while because I'll check that first when I get on my blogger.  Thanks and happy band naming!!!

I've Failed Again

Again I've failed to post for the longest time on earth. What can I say I absolutely stink at posting consistently. Anyways, I've been reading this book called Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell. Rob Bell is the pastor of a church called Mars Hill in Grandville, Michigan. He's a great guy and I would highly recommend his book. He also helps to clarify the scriptures by taking key words in some of our favorite verses and going back to the Hebrew, Greek, or Latin word for it and defining those words with more precision. In this book he gives great food for thought and helps clear up some of the confusing things that we as Christians do just because the generation before us did so. He also helps me to probe everything I hear and do currently and check it to find the truth in all of it. Rob Bell definitely gets me thinking about many things.
