astounded and amazed: a sermon on a reading from mark 1
The Reading Mark 1:21-28 Jesus and his disciples went to Capernaum; and when the sabbath came, he entered the synagogue and taught. They were astounded at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. Just then there was in their...

what makes Christianity different from other world religions?
Don't all religions really just point to the same god? It's easy to see why people would wonder. But they don't point to the same god. In fact, the gods are all quite different, particularly the Christian God. So, what makes Christianity different from other world...

Happy Easter from #kingpartyof7 (with one not in the pic)!
I love our tradition of the flowering 💐 of the Cross at @stedwardsepiscopal. We brought some flowers from our own garden to add.
Mostly, I`m grateful for a Savior who picked me up, rescued me, and gave me a purpose.
I`m also grateful for my crazy family, good friends, and a beautiful church community that gives me the opportunity to serve and bring God glory.

Feelin` that Palm Sunday altar...
And it makes me think about this Sunday we shout "Hosanna," and next Sunday we proclaim "He is risen!" But all of the days in between are filled with such an intense roller coaster ride of events and emotions.
Holy Week has become so much more meaningful to me since I`ve been in the Episcopal Church, and I look forward to each of the services I get to participate in on this crazy journey.

Grateful for a great clergy gathering in @cfdiocese with a fantastic talk from the Rev Dr R Michael Allen on "wholeness."
"If you want to be Christ-centered, you had better pay attention to the whole Christ. To the extent you narrow your Christ, you`ll set yourself and your church up for a search for supplements and substitutes."
Feeling equipped and refreshed... and thankful for such great leadership that puts together events like this for us.

Said goodbye to a dear old friend today. He was the core of a small group of us best friends, and the best man in my (and several of our) wedding(s).
His impact on all of our lives is unquestionable. And his legacy will continue on for a long time to come.
I always feel like he made me a little more rock and roll, and I made him a little more Jimmy Buffett.
And he LOVED Night Ranger (who we saw in concert like a million times), so this just seems fitting from their song, Goodbye..
"As the sun hides his head
For another night`s rest
And the wind sings
His same old song
And you on the edge
Never close, never far
Always there when I needed a friend
But it`s hard living life
On this memory-go-round
Always up, always down
Spinning `round and `round and `round
All this could be
Just a dream so it seems
I was never much good at goodbye"
Godspeed, Dave. May light perpetual shine upon you.

A Message From Dan
What does it look like to live a Christian life? Like, TRULY live a Christian life? If I’m honest, I’m over the fake front of being a happy, blessed, and perfect person in order to impress others. Truth is, I’m a sinner who’s just trying to figure out how to do this without looking like an absolute fool. I think the Christian life is about admitting our brokenness, while raising our hand to say,”Here I am Lord! What would You have me do?” And that’s what this blog is all about… just a dude trying to do the best I can, and maybe hoping that you’re stumbling through the same journey. Maybe we can walk together.
