Well Here We Are

Most of the time that I post on this blog the name is completely appropriate. I am sitting having coffee, just like today. Most of the time my blog sounds a little like, well a lot like what I am. I am a preacher, pastor, minister, leader, father, husband. However the conversation sounds a lot like my preacher role. I guess I just default to my primary public communication tool.

However, if we really were just having coffee, the conversation would probably be more random.

Ruth slept a little late today, so the house was a little more quiet. I don't tell her but in times like that I miss the kids. She thinks I am really loving the empty nest thing and for the most part I am, but not this morning.

I got a new friend on my facebook today. I lived with his family in the summer of 1971 while I was doing a summer internship at Evangel Temple in Columbus Ga. His name is Rich(ie) Wood.

I think my diet should be working faster. I have lost 30 pounds. Soooo...I'm just saying...

I would love to have gone to the daytime Rays game yesterday, but since they lost I'm glad I didn't get to go.

My bible reading was encouraging and challenging this morning. God is so awesome. I can't believe He was able to write through men thousands of years ago over 1500 years and be as relevant to me as He was this morning. I guess that's why He is God. "It is He that has made us and not we ourselves."

I have lunch today with Mike Tedder. He's a nice guy.


Well anyway if you really did go to coffee with Steve, it would probably be a lot like this. I'm usually not very "preachy" (is that a word?) over coffee.

Have a great day, and give me a call if you need me. See ya.
