Hey everybody!It's been about a month or so since I started this blog, and about two weeks since I posted, so I thought I'd give an update. If you want some fiction, sorry, this is not it. I haven't been very inspired lately.
I've been going through a few things in the past few weeks, and it all started with the United Methodist Church (UMC) Candidacy Summit. If you don't already know, I've been called to go into the ministry. Maybe one day I'll write down the calling process for all to digest, but today is not the day. Since the Summit, I've gotten a few things in perspective for the future, which is nice. The downside is that I realized a few things about my life now that need to change in order for me to be prepared for that future.
One thing I needed to do was quit the praise band at the Presbyterian Church I attend here in San Marcos. It wasn't an easy thing to do, and I've had to pray a lot about it. The truth is, I needed the ability to skip church on Sunday sometimes. The Candidacy process involves me needing to go back and forth between here and Houston on the weekends. The other issue involved is the fact that I have more or less been attending both services at that church for about three years now and I feel drained. Faith does not exist in a vacuum, but suffocation doesn't really do anything good for it either.
One more thing. I quit my job at the Casual Male XL.
More later.
