This past week alone I got sermon feedback from people in Washington DC, Hawaii, California and Iraq. Oh the wonders of the podcast. I’m told in three of these places my “Origins: God’s Green Earth” series is making the rounds and is quite a hit. Of course I appreciate feedback that is positive. Interesting to me, I’m getting triple the feedback I normally get in a message series and we are giving away hundreds of CDs. One lady on Sunday, a visitor, took a handful and plans to send them to her Ph.D microbiologist son with hopes that he’ll make room for God in his life. This morning I was mapping out the remaining messages in the series and had the thought… why quit so soon? There is so much more to say on this theme. I do believe it has end time relevance.
Also I know that those of you who attend CATG each weekend may never be able to run for President unless you disavow the crazy politically-incorrect things I’m saying right now and have said over the years. Actually we do need people in our midst to rise up and govern - that’s the Creation Mandate - rulership, dominion over the created order. Go for it! I promise to not pull a Rev. Wright.

Hey, you would be an asset to anyone who was running for president as you could help them develop a manifesto that spoke to the real issues and needs of our day. Now if you were Wright, Obama’s beleaguered pastor, then people might have a problem successfully running for president under your pastoral covering.

Steve, Actually one of our daughters raised this issue. (she was known in high school and college for wanting to be the 1st woman president of the U.S.) She thought it would be cool if she was running and they played sound bites from your sermons. She is very proud of your tenacity for Gods word and His ways, as are we all. Keep bringing the Fire! PC

Yeah, the “save the penguins - to hell with the people” could be taken out of context. And that was even in your notes I bet. Most of the time you just get in trouble for what is not in your notes. But surely that little gem made it.

Midnightcry - : ) I work hard at word-smithing these zingers! For those reading this - the context is such… the actual quote was “save the polar bears and penguins but to hell with the people of Tibet” and I was paraphrasing a newspaper article on the California legislature tabling a bill on acknowledging Chinese human rights abuses in Tibet immediately after passing a bill to protect penguins and polar bears.
PC - I’ll vote for your daughter!
Jthelmsdeep - thanks for the confidence in me!
