Looking for a hero?

Another reason to read comics! :-) BTW, I recommend Jesus as the ultimate real superhero that will never let you down.

Forgiving the Church (Henri Nouwen)

-
Had to post this up! Another gem from Henri Nouwen that is so relevant for today! I have highlighted in red what especially resonates with me as it has bothered me for years that there is a fast growing number of Christians who think they can have Christ without the church. Then back to work. I have finalized my magic routine fro this Sunday - now just need to practice and coordinate with "the Weeman" so our acts flow smoothly from one to the other. Forgiving the Church When we have been wounded by the Church, our temptation is to reject it. But when we reject the Church it becomes very hard for us to keep in touch with the living Christ. When we say, "I love Jesus, but I hate the Church," we end up losing not only the Church but Jesus too. The challenge is to forgive the Church. This challenge is especially great because the Church seldom asks us for forgiveness, at least not officially. But the Church as an often fallible human organization needs our forgiven

Ramblings on an active,full, and tiring two weeks but restful rather than "busy" two weeks

  Happy and grateful to God that this week I got a lot of preparation done (the behind-the-scenes stuff). It has been full (maybe even overflowing), and certainly tiring, but happily not "busy".

But by the grace of God, a lot fell into place and was completed this week. This Sunday's sermon. My Easter sermon for next week (but as usual, I expect there will be a few last-minute revisions 😀) Weekly notes for April's bulletins The next home group meeting study questions about Moses' life.

Thanks, everyone for the birthday wishes via FB, FB messenger, regular text, and WhatsApp. I am not one that is big on celebrating my birthdays. But since it was my 60th, the one thing I did was take the day off to relax. I did some reading, watched TV, and played a PC game. No not Civ 6 or Xcom2 but something different - Age of Empires 4. Rather educational cut scenes too 😁 No special meals as my wife had to work. But on Monday she made me a huge cheesecake and a large tray of lasagna. 😋 And I ate that for three meals 🤣 Monday night's dinner, and yesterday for lunch and dinner. No complaint. was good. My plan was to attend a magic lecture last night BUT, plans for derailed due to helping sort out my wife's car. The lecture was part of my personal birthday plans 🙁BUT all good, wife comes first! I told my family NOT to buy me anything as I think can end up being a waste of money if it ends up being something I don't really want or need. Instead, I decided to buy myself
