Bono- Benefit to Remove A-Holes

Due to the growing amount of @$$ Clowns, A-Holes, Biznitchs, Jerks and Bastards, Bono and I decided that we needed a benefit concert. All he wanted was to add Republicans, Fascist, Capitalist, and Walmart to the list. I reassured him that those demands were agreeable. Anyway we are planning a benefit concert to raise money to deplore all of the undesireables to some Artic wasteland where they can argue amongst themselves as they attempt to drill for oil with a tooth pick and a bad attitude. The benefit concert is without a name at this time but we are in the middle of gathering a vocal choir with A-List music talent to perform the main song, "Don't They Know They Suck and At the Same Time Destroying the Developing World?"

Bono and I came up with the idea of a benefit after we read the horrible comment that someone left on my friend Bethiclause's blog (yes, Bono is an avid lurker on blogs in case you were wondering). Bono told me that, "It hurt me very much that some person would slam a quality parent like Bethiclause. I hope they die of AIDS and herpes while suffering from malnutrition as a despotic government hordes the food." He then added, "The probably voted for Bush."

Anyways this blog is in honor of Bethiclause, who is a damn good mother. I serious see two dozen mothers a day who care nothing of their children and use them to garner services from state and private agencies. It is a shame that someone should even suggest such hurtful things about calling CPS. As far as I am concerned that person is Excommunicated until I find it in my heart to forgive the rat bastard who made that comment. Beth, I love you and don't let anyone give you crap.

Shalom!

XBox360... Baby...Priorities

How do you spend money given to you for various occasions? Do you buy stuff you "need" like books and clothes (both of which I have plenty of, including those I do not use) or do I purchase something fun. Well if your like me, you take the money set aside for fun stuff and buy things you need and spends the money you intended for needs and spend it on an Xbox360! Well the long and short is that the Xbox 360 is cool, sweet, awesome, and grand! The graphics are amazing and the entire set up is cool. Plus, the DVD player that it is equipped with is better than my current one. All in all, it is amazing what you can own if you don't have a car payment! Drive a crappy KIA and you too can have an XBox 360. What a real car? Then no XBox for you.
In more important matters, I was busy this week as I have to rewrite a curriculum for discipleship in my church. The current material that we are based on is extremely charismatic. Since I don't speak in tongues it is better if I rewrite something for the masses than to read something and then make numerous disclaimers. Needless to say I am swamped. I also felt my baby kick for the first time which was kind of gross for I don't want to imagine that my wife is carrying a form of alien life in her belly area as it feeds off her blood. But it was still kind of cool.
Finally I saw Les Mis on Tuesday and it was a great performance! I love that musical. It is filled with grace on many levels. The best part about this theme is that the grace is not cheap as it often comes with a price of someone suffering or dying in another's place. A real good show.

Don't Ask Me I Am Only An Elder!

What does that mean? Who knows, I'm just a pastor. Actually it means that I can do more with less repercussions. Kind of like crazy drivers. You know, the ones who are obviously careful when taking their drivers test and then turn into the Road Warrior as soon as they get their license. Now I can say what I actually believe! No more beating around the bush for me. I now can be as orthodox as my heart desires! I am so excited!
Actually, being ordained is really exciting! It is hard to describe. Let's just say that I wept. It is hard to explain the entire process, but it is safe to say that it has taken 14 years to get to this point. It is a fulfillment of a dream. They say that it will hit me next year when I get to lay hands on the new ordinans. It was also a blessing to be ordained in the chapel that I attended for four years while in college and to see some of my professors and mentors.
It is amazing when I look back at my life and see how God has helped me through so much to keep His promise. It was great to have my parents there as well as my first pastor and some great friends. I wish all my KC friends could have been there too. I just want to say thanks to all my friends and family who supported me in my ministry and I also wish to thank all those who doubted me. Watch out doubters! I can excommunicate your asses with a quickness, so you better step off!
Just one of the perks!
