Thoughts and Such
Once upon a time, long before we thought about podcasting, we blogged about being millennial Pastors!
It stemmed from the book that this website shares a name with. So, here is our blogroll archive in all of its glory.
… and if you couldn’t figure it out, we are making a joke about boomers being bloggers because all millennials have podcacts and blogs are outdated…

The Day Sunday School Died
Have you heard about the good old days? The time when the church was in its heyday? Sometimes they call it the glory days and reminisce about the days when Sunday School classrooms were full of people of all ages. Or the Sunday mornings when church pews were full of...

Its Been a Bit
Heres why: I was invited to be part of this amazing "grand experiment" my denomination is exploring. Basically, I spent a little less than a week with other millennial pastors. Most were also lead pastors who had eerily similar ministerial situations to mine. I say...
Promise That You Will Read This First
I have had requests to put Millennial Jesus (or Hipster Jesus as some of you call Him) on a shirt. I thought long and hard about it and spent more than a couple moments in prayer. Truthfully, I hate the idea of monetizing Jesus which made this a struggle. What I...
Billy Graham, Guns and a Post-Christendom Church
Our world is broken. Death is a daily occurrence, many of you may have heard that the latest loss was Billy Graham. It seems that every day some horrible information breaks. The news is full of headlines about shootings, bombings, and scandal. The debate about humans...
We don’t do sorrow very well
In a world oriented around instant gratification, around seeking happiness and satisfaction, there isn't much room for sorrow. When a friend or loved one is brave enough to admit to something like depression or anxiety, we don't always know how to respond. When...
On behalf of the Church, I am sorry
Sorry guys, this post won't be a super fun one. Today was a bad day for me, and really for the church. No, it's not because the Patriots are in the Superbowl again, but that obviously didn't help. It's also not because I personally did something that I need to make a...
Follow up on the whole “Not being a Jerk” discussion
I've been thinking a lot about why people are jerks. I wrote a little something about it yesterday and you can read it here. In my pondering, and through discussions with people I respect I have come to some conclusions of where maybe some Jerk-itude (that's the one...
Don’t be a jerk
Don't be a jerk. Cool? Cool... For real though, being a jerk ruins stuff. So why do we act like jerks so often? We complain about jerks all the time, you would think it would teach us something. We see it cross-generationally, bad behavior that is learned and then...

So Many Doubts
So many... so... so many doubts... right now my head is full of them. Most stemming from what I shared yesterday (take a look at the pic below). Growing up I was taught doubting was sinful. It meant that you lacked faith. The cure for doubt was more faith. So in...
