They Never Told Me This: March 2009
http://theynevertoldmethis.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
They Never Told Me This. Saturday, March 28, 2009. They Never Told Me Just How Little Time. I would actually have for prayer, study, and personal devotion. Maybe they did tell me how difficult, yet important it would be to prioritize my day for personal preparation, but did I believe them? Keeping myself spiritually alive, basking in God's instruction to my spirit would be key. Wow, was I ever wrong about that! Now, I'm no Moses sitting in the gate or under the tree in the wilderness "judging" 3M people,...

They Never Told Me This. Tuesday, July 21, 2009. They Never Told Me About Going To Jail. For whatever reasons the police had, none of us were released on that Sunday either and we all spent a second night in jail, a little less traumatic than the first. Finally, late Sunday we were bonded out upon agreeing we would not participate in Operation Rescue again for some determined period of time. Sunday, July 5, 2009. They Never Told Me About Unrighteous Indignation. I have experienced moments of righteousnes...

They Never Told Me This: I am Salty!

They Never Told Me This. Tuesday, October 19, 2010. Our family bought it's first TV when I was in the 1st grade. Incidentally, that is when I remember us first having an inside bathroom as well, but that is a story for another time. I will never forget one little 4-year-old boy. He would dress in suit and tie every Sunday. His hair was slicked back and he was the epitome of style. He was a well-behaved boy and loved to sing at the top of his lungs. Boy, could he belt it out. Have a great day! 2 rules, 15...

They Never Told Me This. Saturday, January 30, 2010. A Goodson Prayer Request. Dallise and I have been facing a new challenge in our lives since the end of 2009, and we finally know enough about it to be able to share with our friends so that you may pray for us. It sounds like really bad news at first, but then there is enough good news about the bad news that it is not quite so bad as it will seem at first. The short story is that Dallise was diagnosed December 31, 2009 with Chronic Myeloid. While it w...

They Never Told Me This. Tuesday, December 8, 2009. They Never Told Me. Many churches have a Prayer Team, an invaluable team, and I do not say that lightly, who intercedes for the Pastor and the service before and/or during the service. My Prayer Teams always felt it was important for me to join them in our Prayer Room just prior to the service. I tried to accommodate. Them as I knew it was important. I needed that; I just didn't need to be present always. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

They Never Told Me This: November 2008
http://theynevertoldmethis.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
They Never Told Me This. Sunday, November 16, 2008. Eating Peacock, Laying Tile and Getting Peed On. They never told me about all the odd jobs, both paid and volunteer, that ministry offers, or seems at times, demands. At various times in my 33 years, there have been seasons that necessitated my working a little part-time job to make ends meet. You guessed it. Chicken! Then there were all the odd things you just help people do out of the goodness of your heart, right? They never told me in Bible College ...

They Never Told Me This: September 2009
http://theynevertoldmethis.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
They Never Told Me This. Tuesday, September 22, 2009. They Never Told Me About Elder Fights. We studied Biblical Leadership. We went to Leadership Seminars and Workshops. We read books on Leadership. We watched as mentors dealt with their own church Elders and Deacons. But, still, no one can prepare you for the battles that spontaneously break out when passionate men and women feel strongly about church direction with opposing opinions. There are more stories about Ronnie, but to relate them now means th...

They Never Told Me This. Tuesday, May 26, 2009. They Never Told Me How To Balance Ministry With Family Life. One year on the Saturday when our church was hosting a Liberty Fellowship Winter Conference in which I had some organizational responsibility, I was able to slip out and attend basketball games for my sons. Dallise and I always made it to band concerts and football game halftime shows and sporting events and sailing events. It was hectic, but we felt it was important. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

They Never Told Me This: April 2009
http://theynevertoldmethis.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
They Never Told Me This. Sunday, April 19, 2009. They Never Told Me That Not Everyone Is Transparent. And we have developed a carefully crafted set of Christian platitudes that are not always, but can be, empty and meaningless. One year in particular, Dallise. Great, I'm sure; just like ours. Isn't it great to be a Pastor? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. A DAY IN THE LIFE WITH PK. LESSON 3 - LISTEN. Here we go again!
