- We’ll call today a tale of two Experiences.
- The first one was terrible and the second one was much better.
- Having only 50 minutes for the first one so we could get over to the communion service was just not enough time.
- Between only doing one song and then having to do things in a different order, I was all out of sorts by the time the message started.
- I was doing so much to try to rush through that I was all over the place.
- I feel bad for Ben Meyers who had to try to follow along with me on slides…good job Ben for doing the best you could with a bad situation.
- If you attended the first Experience, I again apologize and would encourage you to listen to the online version of the message so you get a better feel for what I intended.
- Hooray for two Experiences…without the ability to go back and do it over again, I’d have beaten myself up all week.
- The other thing that made today weird was I can barely lift my left arm…it even hurt to hold my bible like I normally do, so I just sat at the table the whole time to teach.
- Getting old sucks!
- On a better note, the communion service over in the sanctuary was great…it’s always nice to bring everyone together for something as meaningful as communion.
- A few of you asked about where to find the historical context of some of the things I shared today. I have a pretty intensive computer program that helps spit out a lot of it, but you may also want to consider, The Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah and also the web-site www.followtherabbi.com.
- Without any guys singing today, it reminded me of when I first arrived at United and we were strictly a chick band…ah the good old days. 🙂
- Had some friends in today from WV, MD and WA (yep that is far away)…always nice to see peeps.
- Time for a nap and then dinner.
