- Art, Music, Justice tour was excellent. We really enjoyed the music and the overall message. Would have liked to see some more music but can't complain too much. One of the artists, Charlie Peacock could have to used to just not talk. His talking drove us nuts, he attempted to preach a short sermon and it was annoying, just not the place for it. But a good weekend overall, we enjoyed hanging out with some of Miriam's friends from her days working at Messiah (I suppose I can start calling them my friends now as well)
- First full Sunday at Westfield this week. We played a rousing game of number hockey in High School fellowship that further proved to me that number hockey is the best game we play there.
- I try not to get too political on this blog but lately Sarah Palin has just been pissing me off. I really get tired of the attacks trying to question Obama's patriotism. News flash: People don't run for president who aren't patriotic, that would just be idiotic. I am also sick of the Republicans trying to use Jeremiah Wright's sermons as fodder for attacks against Obama. Taking parts of his sermon's out of context does make him out to be un-American but if you listen to the sermons he's telling the truth. One of my preaching professors cites Wright's post-9/11 sermon (one of sermons used as sound bites) as a good example of prophetic lament. I respect the man because, if for nothing else, he's not like so many preachers these days whose allegiance is first to the United States and secondly to the Church. That's not biblical. Ok, enough ranting.
- As we head up to NY this weekend I am really looking forward to seeing the leaves changing colors, hopefully we haven't missed too much.
