"Do or do not...

there is no try" One of my favorite quotes from you guessed it, the Jedi master himself, Yoda. This is just one of the many nuggets that has great practical value for life. Either you apply and give all you are to what you are doing or you don't do it at all, why halfway do something? I have recently came to understand that we should present excellence in everything we do, why? Because why give God and other people something that was half way done or something that could have been better. When a Jedi has a task, he devotes himself fully to that task until it is completed, there is no sitting on the fence for a Jedi, as Christians, we should be even more devoted to working to glorify Him. What I want you to catch here is that this should be the norm, "do or do not, THERE IS NO TRY" there is not an option to halfway do something, EVERYTIME we do something it should be done with a mindset of excellence. He has given us so much, why can't we give our very best back to Him in all we do? It won't be easy, it won't always be fun, but I can promise it will play a big part in changing the world, it will make others see a difference in us, it will let others see Christ through us. Try it.

Star Wars Theology


Not just Star Wars, but all Sci-fi in general, I think I am going to start a series of blogs that give good biblical principles using examples from various movies (mostly Star Wars). If you have any suggestions or questions you might liked answered with an example from a movie let me know. Stay Tuned. K Bye

I can't believe its not Christianity!

I understand the need to reach out to the lost, you have to show them their need for a savior, I understand that you introduce them to Christ whom they have never met, that you should try to inspire them by the way you live BUT how do you inspire those who think they are inspired, how do you convince the people who think they have it all figured out? I am not talking about your average non-Christian, I mean the people that fill our churches thinking that they have it together and who during the invitation even "pray" for people to respond but you look at their life, you look at who they are, and you don't see Jesus, I mean you see good things like going to church or giving money or even talking about Jesus, but you don't SEE Him and how He lived. I believe that some of us have chosen this imitation Christianity, this seemingly good lifestyle that makes us feel great and look great but has no kingdom value. I honestly don't know how to inspire this people group to change. I pray you examine yourself as I have and make sure you haven't sold your self out to this cheap imitation. I pray that you are truly inspired by Christ, not the idea of Christ but by Him and how incredible He is and I pray you are changed because of Him.

turn to ya left and tell somebody

I really just want to preach, I want other people to know Him and how incredible He is. I see it in life everyday, people that He has impacted and radically changed. I just wish that everyone around me could get that, that they could see what I see and experience what I experience. Not that I am super-spiritual or w/e but just knowing what it is to abide in Christ and actually see and feel His work. I really believe that if people really let Christ rock their world then we wouldn't have to vote on every little thing and have to fight and argue over stupid stuff. I also don't want to give you the impression that I think I am all holy and stuff... I am nothing without Him who makes me complete, I am just some kid. He is everything.

We're not in Kansas anymore


I am not in Florida. I have to get that in my head, things don't work the same here as they do there. People don't treat me the same as they do there. I am still working on getting adjusted to living in the ham, it is definitely a struggle as stuff the last few days has been extremely stressful, but as a few people have reminded me, it will all get better, there is light at the end of the tunnel. I just wanna continue to grow as I did in Florida, I know it won't be the same practically, but can't it be the same spiritually and mentally? Perhaps. By the way, thanks to Lauren Wegmann, I am finding your myspace profile playlist to be quite good.
