Pray for me!
Headed out tomorrow morning for a summer mission project in Tampa, Florida. Likely no access to tumblr for the next 10 weeks. Pretty excited; the Lord is going to do awesome things and challenge me and break me a lot. Prayer points: For me to be constantly brought to the end of my own resources so that I walk wholly in the power of Christ For the gospel to be heard and understood by those to...

Truth:
Mumford and Sons are awesome. And a Pandora station seeded with them is quite possibly the best thing to happen to music ever. It basically plays every chill band I’ve ever loved.

Rob Bell's Love Wins:
Disclaimer: What follows is lengthy, wordy, preachy, boring, and various other negative adjectives. Read only if you really really want to. Over the last few months, Rob Bell has been vilified by much of mainline Christianity, for a single rather brief book titled Love Wins. I have now read the book, and the more articulate of Bell’s detractors are quite likely correct in asserting that...

Best call I’ve ever received: Woman: Is it true that someone is burning a flag on y’alls campus today? Me: That’s correct. They’ve registered it as a peaceful protest. Woman (growing angry): Y’all better put a stop to that, or else no one’s gonna buy your products. [Products= school merchandise] Me: Ma’am, we’re not in a position to do anything...

Obscene amounts of coffee? Check. A panoply of magnificent Pandora stations? Check. The inclination to study? … …oops.

“For although I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law...

As an American, I’m quite excited that we finally got Osama. I am proud of our armed forces and deeply, deeply thankful for the sacrifices they make in their service. As a follower of Christ, my heart is broken at this news. The...

To shave or not to shave,
bochomeansround: mitchellrscott: spiritofzork: bochomeansround: that is the question. I don’t. Tom doesn’t. Why should you? You should shave because beards are gross. You sound like my little sister. I’m going to get a haircut. Then I’ll grow my beard. Awesome. I actually shaved today.
