Mental Musings: Pampered and Pacified
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2010/04/pampered-and-pacified.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Tuesday, April 06, 2010. We have become a nation that is satisfied with allowing our government to treat us as children. We want the government officials to act as our nannies. We want to live pampered lives, and, when anything goes wrong, we yell and scream until we are pacified. A very large portion of our populous has become spoiled rotten. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Not Exactly a Masterpiece. I am part of...

Mental Musings: Mind Blowing Thoughts
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2012/05/mind-blowing-thoughts.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Friday, May 11, 2012. There are some things that are just beyond our understanding. I do not mean something that we can discover or understand if we only study or concentrate on it long enough. I am referring to those things which we will never find an answer in our lifetime. Start with time which has no beginning and no ending. How do we know there was no beginning? Certainly there is a number of days since the moment that God first started t...

Mental Musings: True Romance
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2015/02/true-romance.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Saturday, February 14, 2015. As with most anything else in our culture, romance has become commercialized. According to television, romance is a glass of wine as you cuddle on the floor beside a crackling fire. Have you ever tried to hold a drink in one hand as you prop yourself up with the other arm tilted slightly to the side so you can stare into someone's eyes? After years of commercializing romance, we have started to see a breakdown in w...

Mental Musings: What Would You Change?
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2015/03/what-would-you-change.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Sunday, March 15, 2015. What Would You Change? Today I met a man who is dying from AIDS. I don't want to use his real name because his family lives in this area. Let's call him Frank. This is the story that Frank shared with me:. Frank started going to church with this 17-year-old boy. He traveled 3 hours to attend his church.Saddleback Church in Anaheim. Frank enjoyed his experience there, but the drive was just too much. So h...Today Frank w...

Mental Musings: Lessons from Habakkuk
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2010/02/lessons-from-habakkuk.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Friday, February 26, 2010. I am part of a home small group Bible study and our study this week is taken from the book of Habakkuk ( click here. To hear it pronounced). I thought I would post some lessons that I learned from this study, which is chapter 17 in the book Right Thinking In A World Gone Wrong: A Biblical Response to Today's Most Controversial Issues. In tough times when it seems the godly suffer and the ungodly prosper, what theolog...

Mental Musings: Hymns and Poetry
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/p/hymns-and-poetry.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. 169; 1992 Steve Poole. They looked to you, O Bethlehem. A birthplace for the Savior,. But all you had to offer them. Was straw placed in a manger. Lift up your voice, with praises sing,. Listen as the joy bells ring,. Today is born the Christ the King! Born to die, new life to bring. Then came the shepherd full of fear. To see the promised Savior;. They bowed their knees and shed a tear,. To see Him in the manger. With gifts to give the Savior;.

Mental Musings: poeTRY
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2012/04/poetry.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Saturday, April 14, 2012. But I believe that each of us has poetry inside just bursting to get out. I believe the same thing about music and drawing and every other type of art. God created us to be creative beings. So why was poetry in the public school setting so difficult for most people? Pick a favorite rhythm from a song you like and try to speak sentences to that rhythm. You do not have to use rhymes unless you want. Poetry does ...View ...

Mental Musings: Dirty Feet
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2012/07/dirty-feet.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Monday, July 09, 2012. 8220;How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news.”. Here is the thing about feet: when they belong to you, they are not that disgusting to clean. But if somebody outside of my immediate family asked me to wash their feet, my response would most likely be, “ARE YOU CRAZY? Me wash someone’s feet? In February 1995, we moved to Jerash, Jordan. I walked the same hills and valleys that the Isra...

Mental Musings: Punishment Turned into Praise
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2015/04/punishment-turned-into-praise.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Friday, April 03, 2015. Punishment Turned into Praise. I have a confession. I really find it hard reading Exodus 36-39. It has always been such drudgery to me. In Exodus 35 Moses tells Israel what God commanded concerning the construction of the Tabernacle. He goes into great detail. Almost as bad as an L.M. Montgomery. Book Then for the next 4 chapters they repeat these details ad nauseam. Moses did not trust Israel any more than a father wou...

Mental Musings: Silver and Gold Have I None
http://classicalscore.blogspot.com/2015/02/silver-and-gold-have-i-none.html
Leadership, discipleship, worship, creativity, and community. Wednesday, February 11, 2015. Silver and Gold Have I None. I think it is great when God challenges a church or individual to contact me and offer to help with events that we are planning. They almost always start off with an apology about not being able to support our church plant financially, but. Go - Some people need a hands on experience before they can capture the vision of church planting. God may be calling you to come to Annapolis ...
