The Jesus Juke

I learned something today. I try to learn something new every day, but some days I fail and other days I learn 20 new things at a time, granted I forget them easily. Maybe I should set things up to songs from the 80’s. I remember every single song lyric I’ve ever heard. It’s a strange thing to be able to bust out Vanilla Ice’s Ice Ice Baby when my kids sing the first lines but forgetting why I’m holding a towel in my hand or why I’m even in that room. I digress.

I have been a Christian since I was 6 years old. For those of you counting that’s (mumble mumble) some odd years ago.

My thoughts on the Oscars, Matthew McConaughey and God

The Oscars were on Sunday, March 2nd. As a fan of movies, I'm usually a fan of awards shows. I like to compare the movies and actors that I thought were transcendent in films to what others pick as the best of the best. I'm always way off the mark. That's ok, because I like the pageantry, the dresses, the performances, the John Travolta-moments. Oh yeah, we were doing a live blog post during the broadcast and was truly dumbfounded when I heard that jumbled up name. Idina Menzel was a good sport about it. We all make mistakes but some are much more public than others.

Living with Grace

 Living with Grace

When I was younger I believed Grace was just the name of my great aunt. When I learned it was more than a name, I thought it meant being able to move delicately, lightly and effortlessly. I have never had that definition of grace! I am one of the clumsiest people! Finally I have learned how grace is defined and how it applies, personally, to me. Grace is showing favor, kindness, mercy and forgiveness to others.

Does Jesus' Great Commission include Facebook? Matthew 28:16-20

Friends, Facebook and God: Do They Work Together?

Matthew 28:16-20   NIV

The Great Commission

Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Thanksgiving....Not a good day to be my pants

Thanksgiving....Not a good day to be my pants

I've tried, in vain, for years to not be the typical girl that grows up and *poof* I'm a God-fearing SAHM (one of the few times you'll EVER see that abbreviation on my page!). Every Facebook status is a scripture, instead of posting a funny - including bad language picture, they post spiritual quotes, and yes, more Bible scripture. 

If you're gonna be a grump that's ok, but could you be a grump a little further away...

...It's not that I don't love you, 'cause you know I do. Sometimes I'm grumpy, too.

Today turned into a grumpy day for me. Sundays aren't good days to be grumpy. Monday is the perfect day to be a miserable person. At least Garfield won't argue with you about Mondays. Sundays are my re-charge from God to get you through the week days.
