I hate laryngitis. Especially since I work at a bank and have to talk all flipping day. Arrgh.
That is all. I am frustrated with having very little voice.
I learned this weekend that I need a whole new roof on my house, as the old one is peeling away and rotting. The previous roof installers apparently did a poor job. Unfortunately, since I wasn't there (it was my dad living there), I don't know who did it, and he can't remember, so I can't just...
Okay, I need to get something off my chest. Basically, why am I ELCA? Why do I remain in a Lutheran church that seems to stray, according to some?
Simply put, I do not believe it has strayed all that far. For one, the Lutheran church was founded upon change, upon reform. We are supposed to...

Thanksgiving is usually the official start...
I am thankful to God for a lot of things. My wife. My job. My house. My family. My friends. My car. Food. Liquid refreshment. Pets (I'm coming around on the yappy dog who needs to pee every ten minutes). I'm thankful the Dallas Cowboys were able to rediscover their offense for at least one game...
*For quite some time now, I have heard and read from many people of Lutheran Synods, particularly the LCMS and WELS, that members of my synod (ELCA), and the Synod itself, are not confessional. Sometimes, I wonder if this is a good thing. Other times, I wonder if there is simply different...
Recently, some, uh... very nice people... have told me my avatar and signature on here are anti-Christ and that somehow, since I referenced that it was from a TV show which was fiction, I now believe Christ was fiction...
Does this make sense to anyone? I can understand people being confused...
