(Continued from previous post) My wife. The extra time I had this morning. I left for work early this morning and my recycling bin was knocked over spilling bottles, cardboard and old mail into the street. I had more than enough time to pick it up and re-stand my bin stress free. Coffee. Egg and bagel sandwiches. They’re delicious. Richard Rohr’s Homilies. Blinken and Cody.

On October 31st, 2017 I sat alone at the bar having a pint quietly ringing in the 500th anniversary of the Reformation by reading, The History of the Reformation in Scotland by John Knox. I purchased this book as a souvenir at his house in Edinburgh shortly after I left my last pastoral position. I was a part time associate pastor that mainly headed up the children’s ministry and occasionally taught on Sunday mornings for a semi-viable congregation in a... Read more
Always forward friends. Originally posted on blog-o-dave: I haven’t always been this way. There was a time in my life when I believed everything I was told.

A few years ago, I was disciplining under one of best men I’ve ever had the privileged of knowing, Don Schiewer. One of the practices he instilled in me was actually writing down things that I was blessing G-d for. Initially I had thought this was an absurd idea because I was young, arrogant, and had a health dose of anger. This had felt too superficial and I was looking for deep meaning with G-d. Like I said I was... Read more
Over the past few months I have been consolidating old notebooks with my sermon notes, and just thoughts I have written over these past few sabbath years and consolidating them into 5 hardcover moleskins. I still have a lot of work to condense them completely but I found something I wanted to share: Please hear O! YHWH, Abba, Father, Host of hosts. For as long as the day lasts and the night falls, I long to be your servant, your keeper... Read more
Alright before I start I just want to point something out. I searched three separate websites for stock photos where I just typed in the word, “hate” and a number of images came up. Some better than the one above. However, thanks to Free Digital Photos I downloaded this one for free. I want to point out a few things: The title of this is called, “Young Boy Yelling.” As what I can assume is a professional job, this kid was paid... Read more
Over the next week I will be republishing posts from my previously defunct blog. Hope you enjoy them, stay tuned for new content coming soon! (Originally published on pintwiththepastor.wordpress.com on May 31st, 2016) Thought: Genesis 2:5-8, 15. “Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth and no plant had yet sprung up, for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no one to work the ground, but streams came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of...
