Well we had around 600 people from the community attend our second Fall Family Fun Festival today. They all got a free meal, free entertainment (including a reptile show, juggler, clowns, face painting, bounce house, and our very own Jim singing and strumming on the guitar), and it was the perfect day for it.

We might even get a few visitors to the church from it. All in all a good day, but I am exhausted. :^) I still have to meet some friends for dinner at King of Prussia, and then write my sermon (which has been on hold all week long because of preparations for today). I will probably get very little sleep tonight. - friarw - -

Don't Try To Clean That Messy Desk : NPR - http://www.npr.org/2013...

1 decade ago from Friendfeed - Comment - Hide - - -

"Writer and astrophysicist Adam Frank says: Make friends with science, and the ordinary, everyday stuff will transform into the extraordinary. Now look around you — the mail, the kids' toys, the mess on your desk, the constant daily chaos? It's inevitable, and science proves it." - friarw - -

Yes, but at the end of the story, he also said that the need to clean that desk is what makes us "alive". I was hoping he was giving me an out, but he pulled it back in at the end. - friarw - -

"4 - the statistical number of gay teenagers who commit suicide, for every "non-gay" teen who commits suicide. 0 - number of the top 6 medical and mental health associations who believe it is possible to change a person's sexual orientation. 6 - number of those top 6 which believe that trying to become straight instead of gay will be emotionally or medically harmful. 6 - number of Bible references teaching homosexuality is wrong. 6 - number of Bible references teaching that Galileo's astronomy is wrong. 20 - minimum number of Bible references supporting polygamy. 60 - minimum number of Bible references supporting slavery. 140 - minimum number of Bible references supporting the subordination of women. 2000 - fewest possible Bible references teaching that God desires mercy, not judgment; forgiveness, not self-righteousness; and grace, wastefully and freely given, especially to the most vulnerable among us." - friarw - -

Met with a couple (Kim and Matt) about a wedding they want me to do on October 6th. I first met Kim on Twitter about 6 years ago. Sometimes social media is so cool because of the connections we can make with people we would otherwise never meet.

Went to my first workout of the week. 25 minutes of cardio, 25 minutes of weight machines for various muscle groups, and 10 minutes of panting, trying to catch my breath, and drinking water. Can I go back to bed now?

The Christian wife-spanking movement [TW] | Mercy not Sacrifice - http://morganguyton.wordpress.com/2013...

1 decade ago from Friendfeed - Comment - Hide - - -

"I really don’t know what to say. Victims of domestic violence probably shouldn’t read this post. Last night I discovered that there is a movement within neo-patriarchal Christian culture called Christian Domestic Discipline (or DD for short) in which men create a set of rules for their wives and spank their wives for violating them. The strangest thing about it is that the movement at least presents itself as something that ultra-conservative Christian women are begging their husbands to do." - friarw - -

International Buy a Priest a Beer Day! | The Catholic Gentleman - http://catholicgentleman.net/2013...

1 decade ago from Friendfeed - Comment - Hide - - -

Did you know that this coming Monday, September 9, is International Buy a Priest a Beer Day? On this festive day, faithful Catholics all over the world take their priests out for a beer and get to know them better. It’s a beautiful Catholic tradition that goes back to the time of St. Hopswald of Aleyard, the first man to take his priest out for a beer. - friarw - -

This is also applicable to those protestant pastors who imbibe as well. Who's taking me out later??? :^) - friarw - -
