Get Stumping


When I first began this blog about 9 months ago, I wasn't sure what it should be about. Being new to blogging, I felt like it needed to have a theme of some sort to maintain regular readership and continued interest. If you read this blog regularly, I'm sure you've noticed that it really doesn't have much of a theme.

Originally I had thought it would be fun to discuss theology/the Bible/Christian living in a question and answer format with readers. I play the game "Stump the Pastor" with my church, youth group and camp staff where they are allowed to ask any question about the Bible or the Christian life and I do my best to answer it. (I don't accept questions like, "How many semi-colons are in the book of Deuteronomy?" or really any question about colons).

So, just for fun, if you have a genuine question about the Bible or the Christian life that you would like to hear some commentary on, please leave a quick comment and I will do my best to respond with a quick reply.

Summer Album


I was having a conversation with Jared Kozemko several months ago about "Summer Albums." Both of us agreed that typically when Summer rolls around we usually gravitate toward one particular album that gets listened to over and over all throughout the Summer months.

At the time, I wasn't too sure what this year's album would be. Weezer's new album was in the running until mid-July when I bought Mat Kearney's album "Bullet." Probably the best album to reach the ears of Christian Hip-Hop fans in forever.

On a stranger note, I have been working on some new music. I just finished the music to a four-minute song, tentatively titled "Bury the Past." The lyrics are just about done as well. I just popped the CD into my computer so I could listen to it and write. According to Windows Media Player, however, the CD is "Backstreet Boys - Incomplete Single." I always thought the fact that I was the 6th member of Backstreet was just between me and the guys.
