Discussions An interesting weekend and week for that matter. Sludged through another week at the office. Just trying to stay positive and show kindness to those around me. This week also played out with some thought provoking conversations with friends and new friends at that. It's good to discuss things with others, keeps me from thinking or acting in error. Celebrated Festivus with good friends on Saturday afternoon! And, what a celebration it was. The boys can cook. 26 pound turkey, stuffing, corn, green bean casserole, veggies, yams, potatoes (which technically is not the menu of Festivus). We will celebrate again next year! Also...had the chance to watch some excellent flicks this weekend too. My heart is broken over what occurred in Rwanda back in 1994. Tragedy such as this occurs more often then those of us in our sheltered American lives realize. Interesting to see how the interworkings of government and big business in the US can impact so many different people around the world. Globalization. Watched this in the theater on Festivus Night. One last flick...no real politic behind it but still well acted and intense. **Note: Please be praying for my brother, Nathan, as he travels from Tokyo to New York on the 13th.

Our Father Above ![]() This past weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to visit my good friends...Matt and Heidi...in Altoona, Pa. Heidi recently gave birth to their firstborn...Edith Noble Manfred. So, it was exciting to meet Edie and spend time with the whole family! It also seems that every time I visit the Manfreds, I'm inspired to write a blog entry! So, here you have it... How interesting to view the life of a newborn (Edie is nearly 6 weeks old) and see how fragile and dependent she is upon her parents. What a frail but important existence she endures. Her only goal in life right now is to eat, sleep and grow! Think of it, her only form of communication is crying or smiling. She can't tell you if she is hungry or in pain. What a job new parents have! (I'm praying for all of you who are parents and have found this a choppy and unguided road, at best.) What a picture of the gospel! How feeble and easily broken are our lives? Yet, our Father cares for us. He dwells in us. He sent His own son for us. Oh, how he holds us in His arms! Cleans us up after our messes. Holds our head up when we aren't strong enough. Such disgustingly unmerited grace.

Authentic Kingdom Seekers "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us." I Peter 2.9-12 Is this not exactly how we should be living in our postmodern world as followers of Christ?

Church Web "Site" or Blog? Some of you may know that I attempt to keep the website updated for the church I currently attend. Well, it's an old design and in need of refurbishment or even a total re-design. I've noticed some other churches and pastors are now using blogs to connect with folks. What a great idea! Not only are blogs more dynamic but they are much easier to keep updated for the common man. Plus, the pastor will be able to add updates where he sees fit as will other church staff! I'm interested in adopting this idea for CRPC, however, I don't want to lose some of the informative pages such as Events, Staff, etc. At the same time, I want to add new features such as interactive discussions, digital sermon downloads, sermon notes and podcasts! Most likely will use this site for hosting and design purposes. Any ideas?

Buying Stuff This past Monday I was at a business ethics discussion (that I attend monthly) and some interesting thoughts have resulted from it. In recent years, I've been known and heard to complain (yeah, I'm good at that, but shouldn't be) about LARGE corporations and their influence on our society. I typically boycott most fast food joints. And, I get worried when I see Wal-Mart building yet another SUPERSIZEME store or yet another merger between already ginormous corporations. It concerns me and I don't have a solution. Yet, I've also softened in my view of the corporation and the free market economy. It has its faults but it also has many good results. However, my greater concern is the reliance that has been placed upon the corporation. We now expect them to "step in" and assist with natural disasters. We expect them to be heavily involved in charitable donations. Might I pose this question...is that the original role of the corporation within the framework of society? And, yet another, more important question...where is the Church in all of this? Well...this has not quite made it to the topic I originally set out to discuss. However, this is the background to my thinking. My greatest concern (and mostly a personal one, at that) is why do we spend so much money? Obviously, we need to feed, clothe and provide shelter but do we really need all the little gadgets, shoes, outfits, whatever...that we buy? I'm disgustingly guilty of this and it bothers me. I fear a selfishness is allowed to exist. More should be given away and more should be saved. I have a personal responsibility to be a good steward of my own resources and to use these for the good of man and God. I often fail at this. Your thoughts? More to follow on all of this... Update: Please consider a small donation to help UNICEF in South Asia Earthquake relief efforts. Go here to learn more about what UNICEF is doing to provide emergency assistance for children and families affected by the earthquake in South Asia. (Katrina and Tsunami relief efforts have received far more media attention than this disaster)

U2 ![]() Can you believe I had the opportunity to see U2 this past weekend? Yep, another friend of mine bailed so there was a ticket available for the 10/22/05 show in Pittsburgh, Pa! Amazing, spiritual experience for all involved! It appears they have some things figured out and want to share it with the rest of us. There certainly are plenty of folks listening. I heard two guys (friends that we stayed with) who both said..."that was a religious experience" and these are guys you wouldn't expect to hear that from.

The Critic ![]() Here it is and somehow 16 days have passed since I flew back to Pennsylvania from Seattle on Saturday, Oct 1. As some know, I just returned from the trip of a life! This trip was mentioned briefly in a previous post. I journeyed across the country with Pam as she has embarked on a new job endeavor in northwest Washington state. A day by day log narrative can be found here and P's version can be found here. Rather than bore with you too many trip details, I would like to share a few important things that I learned throughout this trip and the reasons why. Thanks to the amount of over the road time...both of us had ample time to think and talk about numerous subjects. One main theme that became evident to me was the incessant grumbling and complaint ridden attitude I often can display. I've been notorious for this in the past and know it is a fault of mine in need of repair. However, it never really occurred to me how ridiculous it can be. Sometimes, it can just be complaining for the sake of complaining or in other words, just complaining about stupid stuff (annoying driver, highway construction, tolls, fog, rain) and this, at times, is said just to be silly. Now, along with this complaint universe I reside in is the age of the critic. The two go hand in hand almost or the complaining results from the critical spirit...possibly? Now, I know my standards for most things are extremely high. Yet, I never realized that I can be almost annoyingly demanding of these standards. This is quite ridiculous. It can drive another person quite crazy if they have to listen the constant complaining. And, all the criticism can be rather demoralizing, particularly if you are the brunt of the criticism. My travel partner handled this extremely well and mostly would just laugh at my ridiculousness. I even recall one instance where I was acting a little foolishly cranky and Pam flat out didn’t take it. We were at a gas station in Cody, Wyoming and I had pumped the gas while P was chatting on her mobile (clearly unsafe and borderline illegal while at a gas pump). So, I suppose I was a little miffed at her and thus reacted to this. P said, “Why are you being so mean?” Immediately, I realized how I was acting and treating her and knew it was wrong. I’m thankful that Pam was and is willing to point out my outrageous attitude and not just allow it. This type of attitude is certainly not the way in which the Lord has called me to act each and every day. Actually, I really do not think Christ would want me to be acting like this at ANY time. He didn’t, why should I? Just read an interesting article on how we must focus on the small things, not just the big areas of life. We need to serve Christ in ALL areas. So, I am very grateful to have had this opportunity to travel across our great country and to see so many wonderful sights. Yet, I am also thankful that it was not only a learning experience but an eye opening one at that. P, thanks for inviting me along and helping me recognize these areas in my life that need work…no fun without you! Note: Stop by Yahoo! Photos to see Badlands, Rushmore, Yellowstone, Grant Teton and others. And check out P's photo collection too!

Helping Out ![]() We placed 9th overall out of 28 teams. We were the 4th best men's team out of 11. Our times improved from last year. Visit here for the full team results. Definitely some fast people in this race. Men and women!! There was one girl that finished with a better time in the run than I did. She actually had the fastest women's run time in the entire race, so I don't feel too horrible. Check out the next sweet, sweet race Mr. Frex and I will be dominating this weekend in Curwensville, Pa. Next, I would like to encourage all of you to participate in the Hurricane Katrina relief effort being organized by Kohl's Dept Stores. This is a late notice by me but Kohl's is accepting lightly used clothes and shoes until Wednesday, Sept 14th. Help out if you have time! Check it out! UPDATE: The FBI and Internet Fraud Complaint Center has reported a significant number of fraudulent Web sites and email schemes, some appearing within 48 hours of the disaster occurrence, soliciting donation by credit card or bank transfer. For more warnings about current fraudulent internet activity, visit the FBI—Internet Fraud Complaint Center.

![]() Twisted Logic Tour appeals to X/Y August 11, 2005 marked my attendance at a fourth Coldplay concert in their young, yet illustrious career. I also had the great privilege of seeing them play twice during the 2003 Rush of Blood to the Head Tour. All the shows have included a high amount of energy from each member of the band. Most obvious, the antics of frontman Chris Martin, who enjoys running and bouncing around the stage yet maintaining an uncanny ability to still sing and piano play at an amazing clip. Thus, if you ever have a chance to catch them live. Do it! For a great review on their Pittsburgh show...read it here. Also, if you are interested in photos, email me and I will send you a link!

Kissell is no longer the man… Jack Johnson is. The month of August has brought about some fun experiences for me. It all began with the sweet, sweet hoops action that we had on Saturday the 9th in West Chester. A sunny, but less humid day at "Iceline" Park aka West Goshen Community Park. We followed this up by some fun tailgating prior to the Coldplay show in Camden, NJ with my friends Luke, Tara, Ann, Sarah, Marsha, Dave and Kristen. Coldplay was up to their old tricks with a solid show (a full review to follow in subsequent blog entry). Next up, was my 2nd Coldplay show of the week on Thursday the 11th near Pittsburgh and an amazing display of drivership (a trip of nearly 225 miles) on the part of my friend Jon Weirsma (better known as The Whiz). We did not depart the Mechanicsburg area until 5:20pm but still managed to arrive just in time to walk to our seats as the lights go out and Chris and the boys walk out on stage. My friends Pam, Whiz and his brother-in-law enjoyed this show with me. Sunday the 14th had a group of us going to extra innings in an epic Wiffle Ball game held at Hope Field in Carlisle, Pa, only for my team to end up on top 14-11 on a walk-off homer by Pitch Greg. Game would have ended in regulation save for my 3-run throwing error in attempts to hit Tyler with the 3rd out. This mental mistake allowed the opposition to tie it in the last inning. The following weekend was my trip to Altoona which was discussed in a previously entry. I depart today (Friday 26 August) for SFO and baseball games at SBC Park, Dodger Stadium and Petco Park. Photos to follow upon my return. Well, the real reason for this entry…the complete sweetness of Jack Johnson. The fame has not gone to his head nor will it. He loves his family, his job and the creation God has given him to take care of. Sorry Kissell!

Washing Dishes Greetings. It's been far too long since my last entry and now that I've compiled about 30982 different topics that I would like to comment on, I'm finally sitting down to write an entry. Maybe someday I will actually find the time and thoughts to write on a daily basis and actually maintain a solid readership. Returned Sunday evening from a grand visit to Altoona, Pa and a visit from my dear friends Matt and Heidi Manfrex. A relaxing yet engaging visit with some expert canoeing on the boggy lake at Black Moshannon SP. We capped off the afternoon with a scratchy and cobwebby run around the lake at Canoe Creek SP and a dip in the cool lake water on Sunday. Good times. During my visit with Frex, we had a lively debate on how to properly wash dishes. Mr. Frex argues for the Pre-rinse Method in which he rinses off all dishes prior to soaping. While this could be viewed as an unwarranted use of water, it does prevent the soapy water (for washing the dishes) from becoming greased up or junked with food. This method provides a clean environment to wash the dishes and thus cleaner dishes as purported by Frex. Others of us might ascribe to the Wash-N-Rinse Method where the soap is squirted into the hot water and once some suds are ready, the dishes are washed, food and all, with the theory that the soap/hot water cleans the dish and the garbage disposal eats the grime. (Personally, I enjoy washing one dish at a time with the hot water slowly filling the sink. This allows for the water to be minimally dirtied while allowing for a quick wash since I can wash and rinse without the on/off with the faucet.) In the Pre-rinse Method, are the dishes REALLY that much cleaner? A level of cleanliness to warrant this extra water usage? There is not a simple answer to this question. This can evolve into quite a moral debate and we must examine our heart for the environment. While I want the cleanest dishes available to me, I still must consider the economic and environmental consequences of the Pre-rinse Method. As a follower of Christ, I'm called to be a good steward of God's creation and this involves caring for His environment here on our blessed Earth. Are we wasting water in our dishwashing methods? Can we find new, more efficient cleaning techniques? I really don't know. I suppose we could apply the KOP Method as adopted by Mr. Luke B and roommates whereas they typically will wash a dish here and there when needed but most dishes lay dirty in the sink. Less water used, much more horrendous odor exists. We could utilize better soaps that are healthier not only for us (since we do eat from the dishes we clean) but for the environment to where the dirty, soapy water flows out to. Even a soap that requires less concentration to be effective and can be stretched for great lengths of time. I have no answers.

Community This is a term so often heard and discussed in Christian circles. Yet, that's almost all I have ever experienced. Just talking about it. Not actually being a part of it or making it grow. But, what is IT? What is community? Or what should community be? This is a topic I've been thinking hard about lately and will continue to. Would love input from anyone who reads this. Use the comments section or email me. I was greatly struck the other day when reading something that Moby had said. It was about how our culture in America is so dis-connected. Almost anti-community. How sad. The Christian community is no different. So many churches have crumbled recently and friendships broken. Can we re-connect with our friends? With our next door neighbor? With our co-workers? Teammates? I think we can, but how?

Reaching out to Gen X/Y No philosophizing on my part in this week's entry, hopefully! I think we all were hearing enough from Romans and there is much more to talk about. I continue to encourage anyone who reads this blog to please leave comments in the comment section! We want to hear from you! Would like to take this time to reflect upon impacting this wonderful culture we live in. And, three specific organizations and three people whom I know impacting lives daily: First, is the John Newton International Center For Christian Studies with the specific goal of serving Dickinson College and School of Law through the promotion of excellence in Christian thinking and faithful living. They are accomplishing this by hosting lectures by speakers of national and international reputation. The Center also reaches out to the students via personal counsel and smaller, group studies. My uncle, Stephen Hague, is the renowned director of the Center. Please drop him an email or phone call if you have questions or would like to get involved! Second, is World Harvest Mission where my good friend Rebecca Williams (better known as Rebz) is serving in the Missionary Apprenticeship Program in Ireland. Please pray for this team as they seek to reach a rather dark and lost Irish culture. Please email Rebz words of encouragement and ask how you might help the ministry through prayer or financial means. Third, is Coalition For Christian Outreach and more specifically the Outdoor Leadership Team where my good friend and brother Chris Kissell begins serving this June. He is still in need of monthly financial supporters and prayer partners! Finally, I urge you to view each of these people and ministries as missionaries to our culture. We need more folks such as these who are willing to sacrifice fortune and fame to reach a generation so much in need of a holy, gracious God. There are other folks out there reaching our culture as well. Bands such as this are with their upcoming album. Choose who you will join up with...

Do Not Surrender"Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Romans 8.1This verse is a key part of this post tonite, yet I have about four different thoughts forcing their way into my brain and somehow I will attempt to tie them all together here. As well as add some peripheral items at the end. How thankful we ought to be towards God for sending His son to take the condemnation due us for our sin! Christ lived a sinless life yet suffered and died just for me. I've had discussions with friends about our selfishness that leads to sin. We seem to always choose our desire rather than Christ's. The discussion follows out to whether God is angry with us and will inflict His wrath upon us. Yet, when we read the verse above from Romans, it is clear that since we are in Christ, we have no condemnation. He took it upon Himself. Christ covers and protects us from God's wrath. So, the picture I see of our LORD is that of a father. He is deeply disappointed and saddened when we sin. It hurts Him. Yet, His just wrath has been inflicted on Christ. May we see God as our Father, a being we can talk to and seek comfort in. Yes, we ought to still fear His wrath but know His mercy abounds. An interesting article, that my good brother Luke shared with me a few weeks ago, speaks on the timing of God and how our faith must remain steadfast. So often, I get caught up in my own agenda and have an extremely small amount of patience for others when they interrupt my schedule. Unfortunately, I fear that I do this with God at times, when wanting to know what the future holds or thinking about material things. I want to take matters into my own hands and quit school or buy something that I don't really need all that much but want it anyways. The article states... "This selfishness is magnified even more when we look at the timelines and demands that we put on our faith. When thinking of the things that we give value to and the relatively short time restraints we put on God "coming through" for us, we can quickly see how our attitude and impatience paints a vivid picture of a shallow faith that is built on having what we want when we want it." (Grant Jenkins) Along this same vein, another article in the May/June issue of Relevant "Having It All Without The Stuff" spoke very acutely to me about what my expectations should be. "You have to be prepared for the fact that the search for a sense of purposefulness and success may be a longer odyssey. I don't think most of us get to realize our dreams in our 20's. It's unrealistic." I'm challenging myself and you to not have the attitude of expecting God to "come through" for us! We need to be the clutch Christians who live for Christ at ALL times, not just when we get what WE want. We also cannot expect to achieve all of life's goals before we are 30 years old!! Peripheral ItemsHere is a book and author getting some play in circles these days that we all should check out. Here is an article (written by Gene Edward Veith) about Lauren Winner, the author of the book mentioned above. The article can also be found in the May 7, 2005 World Magazine. Lauren Winner has also written a few articles for Relevant Magazine and the book, Girl Meets God.

Well, it's been well over a month since my last post and I've probably lost all readers by now. I've promised in the past to write on a weekly basis and I'm going to do my best to get to that point. I have so many different thoughts rolling around and usually I assume that nobody really wants to hear about them anyways. What I want to share here tonite is on the topic of obedience. "For I know that nothing good dwells in me, tha is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not." Romans 7.18 Such strong words from Paul. Yet, I feel this idea of not doing the good actually falls back to not obeying the Lord. I have the option to obey Christ and deny myself the pleasure of the moment, yet I choose to disobey and indulge in that pleasure. This could be anything that is self-serving. Seems like common sense, huh? Yet, a continual struggle for sinners. Do not lose hope! Continue in obedience! And, when you fail, the Lord forgives. Pick yourself up and obey! Have we not been called to obey? "our Lord, through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles for His name's sake," Romans 1.5 Obedience of faith.

"But seek ye first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." Matthew 6.33 Plenty of thoughts swirling around in my head tonite and I need to corner them more deeply before writing more. Consider this for now...what is Christianity? What does it mean to live for Christ? More to follow shortly...

A good friend and I closed out the night at Quip's Pub after an eventful night which began with a splendid winter jacket purchase followed by some wonderful, home-cooked pasta then a trek to the Chameleon Club to see OTR play a soothing show. An interesting discussion transpired as it oft does between us...reaching a world with love and the grace of our Lord Christ. There are so many dicey topics that are difficult to deal with but when it comes to blood and tears, we must take a stance on each one. Such topics as the gay community, the "hookup" mentality of the college generation, and others. These are landmark topics where Jesus truly showed grace. How can we do the same? We can start with self. Christ's words: "Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?" Luke 6.41 A verse that has always struck home hard with me. Who am I to be worrying about what others are doing when I cannot even get my own nasty sin stopped? I am a hypocrite, that is what I am but am commanded NOT to be. I am dead to this sin now because of Christ. "Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus." Rom 6.11 Christ has set me free from sin. I'm to be living unto Him... "For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace." Rom 6.14 This is difficult at times, but why? Why do I continue to struggle? It is time to focus in on my own daily desires. To set myself apart from those things that are not of good character. Also, I must encourage others to do this same daily separation. Let us walk grace. "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord." I Cor 15:58 Pastor Yagel quoted this verse this morning after the installation of some church officers. He was talking about leadership and this struck me as more than that. This is a daily thing! Let's start our own bandwagon and focus in on our own daily, minute by minute drive to live sinlessly and in glory to Christ. Now, to close out this horribly choppy post with a paraphrase of Dale Carnegie that is appropriate when considering how we can relate to our world..."You'll accomplish more in the next two months developing a sincere interest in two people than you'll accomplish in the next two years trying to get two people interested in you." Focus on your daily desires in your own world, don't be trying to worry about everyone else around you, yet at the same time develop those relationships by encouraging one another. This might seem contradictory unless you are smashing around similar thoughts to mine.

Why the end of the world is near...
"There will no longer be any curse; and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve Him; they will see His face..." Revelation 22.3-4 Obviously, the curse spoken of here is not the supposed one the Red Sox destroyed just months ago by winning the World Series. Yet, it could be a sign. Right?

"You did not choose Me but I chose you, and appointed you that you would go and bear fruit, and that your fruit would remain, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name He may give to you."
John 15.16 Such a poignant reminder for us. We did not choose Christ. We were slaves to sin until He rescued us from it by His wonderful work of grace on the cross. Let us not forget this. Who do you serve? Christ has called us to serve Him fully and completely. Not our own stupid ideas of how or how much to serve. All.

"the defining moments of my life have not been my sins or my successes. They've been a depressingly small number of decisions that involved real risk." -- Brennan Manning
Are you willing to take some risk in 2005? "Christ is not a passive Savior sitting still in some cosmic comfy chair. Our God is dynamic; He is a creative force, the ultimate visionary, always on the move, and if we want to know Him and be with Him, we will have to follow Him wherever He is going next. " -- Pete Greig Will you join the adventure? |
