All is fair in love…

Ok, we all know the popular idea that in both love and war all things are fair, obviously with Just War Theory and the Geneva Convention we believe that in modern warfare certain things are off limits but what about modern relationships?

To quote the wisdom of Sasha Fierce, “if you liked it, then you should have put a ring on it”. If this true, then if there is no ring on “it” then is it still fair game? This may not make sense to those who are not close friends of mine, but speaking in general terms, what does Just Love Theory dictate behavior as for a batchelor looking to persue a girl in a relationship with no commitment for marriage?

Small group

I joined a small group at the college ministry I attend, and to be completely honest, I find it useless. Thanks to the short sightedness of the leader of the college ministry, he keeps placing every guy who signs up in our group, why? Because he refuses to jeopardize the dynamic of his own small group, plus he is playing favorites. It has become absolutely ridiculous, and no one is willing to call it like it is.
It is pathetic, I barely know any of the guys in my group, partly because half of the time they don’t show up, and the other half of the time the topic is so superficial, that it is useless. I am waiting patiently because I think my own church the Ascentis going to be starting up life groups soon. I can’t decide if I want to hold out until then, or if I should stop going after our holiday break. Any advice?

Christmas Eve

The Ascent will be hosting a Christmas Eve service this year at our new location. Come join us as we learn more about why, “God gave” and what it means to live in recognition of that. Check out the website or blog for more information at the Ascent Church

Dylan R.

I found out today that a past colleague of mine past away, we worked together for roughly a year.  Dylan was a funny, smart, twenty year old who made a mistake and OD’ed.  It is hard to think that someone my own age could lose their life so easily, we have a tendency to think we are invincible.  I believe that Dylan is in a better place, and my thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.  Please keep them in your prayers.

My apologies

It has been brought to my attention that I have been grossly neglecting my blogging responsibilities, for that you all (by “you all” I am referring to whatever poor sap stumbles upon this blog) have my apologies. I will attempt to do better by you (for an elaboration on the meaning of “you” see previous note.)
