The New Look

What do you think?
I think the Dodger logo is really cool.
I thought it was time for a change, maybe not get so deep.
Enjoy.

Goodbye 2007, Hello 2008

Where has it gone?
It seems like only yesterday...oh well, you know the rest.
I have been toying with the idea of killing this blog, maybe starting a new one.
It seems to me that everything about church leadership has been said. I mean there are much wiser people than I that can tackle the tough issues. You can't walk through a Christian bookstore without seeing several books on how to do church the "right" way.
Ask ten different people, you would get ten different answers. Traditional churches are critical of non-traditional and visa-versa (sometimes I wonder if it isn't jealousy).
All of us worship in not so perfect community, which makes sense since people aren't perfect. What I have tried to do in my ramblings is to at least get people focused on Christ.
The several years I have spent in church leadership has taught me a couple of things, one is how much I really don't know, and two is that people who are apathetic Christians are the reason the church in the United States is losing the battle for hearts and souls.
I will not, however tell you that I am blameless. At times I hear the siren's song of just getting away from the responsibilities of leading. Just to sit in a pew and let someone else take the hits is becoming more attractive all the time.
So it comes down to this, perhaps it's time that this blog be changed to something else. Maybe something that looks more like a journal or devotional. Shoot if Brian can do it, I can too!
Stay tuned...
