Snod Bloggins: April 2007
http://snodbloggins.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
The bloggings of hobbit's struggle with post-modernism, missional living and a more meaningful spirituality. Friday, April 06, 2007. The Hand of God. I've been thinking a lot lately. A lot about how we live, how living works, why we live, how we interact with God. Prayer is one of these issues I haven't been able to reconstruct. In the end it all comes down to the way we interact with God, and the way He interacts in the world. Let me get to the point. I'm tired of the 'It's in God's hands's and the ...

Snod Bloggins: The Frown on God's Face
http://snodbloggins.blogspot.com/2007/06/frown-on-gods-face.html
The bloggings of hobbit's struggle with post-modernism, missional living and a more meaningful spirituality. Wednesday, June 27, 2007. The Frown on God's Face. I was almost home yesterday, just having entered my beautiful and myopic suburb when I passed my favorite church. Now my real favorite "church" is the one I am a part of, my brothers and sisters, but I love this church for its street sign. See, the sign is on one of the two main streets in a suburb of 60k, so it gets lots of exposure. Its just ano...

Snod Bloggins: The Lightning Storm
http://snodbloggins.blogspot.com/2007/06/lightning-storm.html
The bloggings of hobbit's struggle with post-modernism, missional living and a more meaningful spirituality. Wednesday, June 20, 2007. I was driving home after a particularly frustrating day yesterday when I was blessed with a treat. My drive home from work is around 35 minutes without traffic and the sun had just gone down so the roads were clear of other commuters. The storm had been gathering on the horizon for most of the day, it seemed. Finally as I was driving on the highway the show began. I exper...

Snod Bloggins: October 2006
http://snodbloggins.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
The bloggings of hobbit's struggle with post-modernism, missional living and a more meaningful spirituality. Tuesday, October 31, 2006. The last word. and the word after that. If you haven't read this book by Brian Mclaren and have ever wondered about hell, or how a good god can send people there, or salvation and judgement, read this book! It really is just a new take on how we view theology, scripture, and the christian walk. He just goes into these topics in detail. I hate what I am. I believe God is ...

Snod Bloggins: December 2006
http://snodbloggins.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
The bloggings of hobbit's struggle with post-modernism, missional living and a more meaningful spirituality. Saturday, December 30, 2006. As I leave today and allow my parents to spend entirely too much money for me to spend a week in the Mayan Riviera for my cousins wedding I am reminded of my own hypocrisy. Hopefully I will have plenty to talk about when I return. Also the library will be open and I can finally research Prayer and Baptism. Sunday, December 24, 2006. Home(less) for the Holydays. Too oft...

take this heart...and make it break: June 2007
http://makeitbreak.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 30, 2007. My heart is racing, my adrenaline is already pumping, and my wheels (in my tiny brain) are spinning, all because so much seems to be culminating tomorrow! Maybe that's why i'm exhausted already? I'm teaching tomorrow at fcc. My last official day on staff. then i'm diving headlong into this adventure God's pulled me into, namely leading and serving a new church plant in our community. so much emotion! And i'm diving in. Thank You, Master, that you haven't called me into this alone!

Friday, July 27, 2007. This week has included a pretty tangible word for me from the Master. I'm so excited about what He's calling me to - the big picture of His Kingdom coming here, now, and how He's inviting us, His Church, to extend His reign.

Sweet as can be.and boy does he love to call me.and email me.and text me.and call me some more. I don't know if anyone will e...

take this heart...and make it break: August 2007
http://makeitbreak.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 24, 2007. Need for true companion, companions. Being away from everyone in my life these past few days has been good. as somewhat of an introvert, i'm definitely recharged by these times alone. And yet it definitely brings to bear the God-given need in me for others. i miss keri! She is my best friend, my confidant, my lover, my true companion (little shout out to marc cohn - love that song). something very supernatural about the bond between us. the mystery of marriage. wow. Thank You, Ma...

take this heart...and make it break: please let us be this kind of church
http://makeitbreak.blogspot.com/2007/08/please-let-us-be-this-kind-of-church.html
Thursday, August 23, 2007. Please let us be this kind of church. I recently received a note from a friend. worth sharing as we plant this church. I just had a very heavy but encouraging lunch with a friend. Apparently my friend's daughter recently became pregnant; she is fresh out. Of high school. She is having a really tough time because she doesn't feel. Like she can return to the church she was attending for fear of facing harsh. While we were discussing his daughter's now-interrupted future plans, he.
