registration fixed?

okay, i think i have fixed it now. hopefully someone will try it in a second or two and i’ll know for sure. all i know is that one or more people have tried 9 times to register via the form and it has failed on those attempts. i know this because it sent me 9 error messages saying my space was full. i fixed that problem so go ahead and register.

sign up issues

i’m not sure why but for some reason the online sign-up form has decided to stop working. i know this because it has sent me 8 error messages within the last hour. i’m working on it. if you are trying to sign up just send me an email at robet.terrell at gmail . com. sorry for the inconvenience.

btw, lost was awesome!

insidious maladies

one of the most insidious maladies of our time [is]: the tendency in most of us to observe rather than act, avoid rather than participate, not do rather than do; the tendency to give in to the sly, negative, cautionary voices that constantly counsel us to be careful, to be controlled, to be wary and prudent and hesitant and guarded in our approach of this complicated thing called living

lying in the name of GOD?

pam, my lovely, intelligent, can caring wife, brought this article to my attention. it hit an interesting never considering our interim pastor announced yesterday that he would be leaving in december i thought it was appropriate.

are CHRISTians also human beings? are we permitted to talk about our lives the way other humans do? can we admit mistakes, confess uncertainty, and be honest about conflicts? is it okay not to have an airtight spiritual explanation for everything that happens?

one of the greatest causes of cynicism among CHRISTians is the way we lather GOD-talk over our lives in order to obscure realities we consider too painful to discuss directly.

JESUS greeting?

if you get the wittenberg door’s update email you have probably already seen this but i figured i would throw it out there just in case. it would appear that JESUS is now making a little money on the side by doing intros for websites. at leat that’s what i’m guessing since this youth group’s website has a greeting from JESUS. i feel a little unworthy as a youth minister since i can’t seem to get HIM to do one of these for me.

two side points: 1)apparently all those older paintings of JESUS with blue eyes were right (very odd for an ancient near eastern hebrew, but who can deny video?), 2)watch HIS eyes as you move the cursor around. remember HE is watching.

it’s whats for dinner

it's whats for dinner
the dinner plan for tonight was supposed to be me bbq’ing steak for my family. through various scenarios that happened within the day it turned out that it wasn’t going to be best for me to cook out tonight. so instead pam decided to cook chili (which is always awesome). when i told my kids that we weren’t having steak they both jumped for joy.

what have i done wrong in raising my kids? how could i have reared them in such a way that they don’t love steak? it would be okay if they were vegans. it would some how be easier if i knew they had a moral problem with eatting beef. yet, that’s not my kids issue. nope, they simply prefer the taste of ground beef to that of a well cooked rib eye. it doesn’t make any sense to me.

i must have screwed up in raising them. they’ll probably need counseling when they get older.

dark room equipment

if anyone has any old dark room equipment that you no longer want i’m trying to set up a dark room at the student center. of course, i want to do this for free so i want to see what i can get donated. here’s what i’m looking for:

  • processing tanks
  • timers
  • processing chemicals
  • enlarger (medium format if possible)
  • developing trays
  • matt cutter (for framing prints)
  • etc.

i’m just wondering if anyone has any of these things that he/she is wanting to get rid of.
