Friday December 16, 2005

Du Jour: My new friend Paul has a thought-provoking article that calls for ” No More Youth Pastors!” Despite the title, it is not meant to discourage those in youth ministry.

Du Jour Bonus: Heartcry Journal features a letter written by “Kenny” who cries out to pastors with “a broken heart and desperation for God.”

Humor: This will bend your brain. And to allay your concerns, this is not one of those sites that catches you off guard with a screaming person. It’s just a mindbender (and a cool one at that).

Humor Bonus: This is my kind of Christmas decoration.
