Cookout - August 23

Pastor Dehner says, "feed them and they will come." Well, break out the forks and spoons. On second thought, you don't need those for a cookout. Just leave those at home and bring some kind of food and a 2-liter. We will supply the meat and the grill.

Have you ever noticed how most men don't even need a plate. Most times over the kitchen sink will suffice.

The cookout will start at 4:00pm.

Leave the kitchen sink at home too.

I don't think these things consciously! It is just obvious when I really evaluate my behaviors and feelings. The irony of it all is that this approach causes me great pain and is very tiring. It is hard work to always be trying to manipulate your surroundings. It is no fun for those who love me either. Many years ago, I worked for a pastor named Bill Britton. He was an author and evangelist. One of the articles that he wrote follows. In the end, it is obvious to me that I am NOT dead yet.
