I think it is in the book of Mark, when Jesus performs miracle after miracle and then he tells the person to go and tell no one. I find this strange. It seems that Jesus may have been doing these miracles for a bigger reason than to just letting people know he is God. It […]

Phil’s wedding went awesome. I’ll have pics up soon. I’m now back from Halifax. The car made it!!!! WOO HOOOOO!!!! On to some more useless thinking. Have you noticed that a lot of people (myself included) love to walk around with name brand t-shirts. Usually people will pick a brand that connects them to who
Last night was eventful. We went to an East Coast bar called the Lower Deck. As soon as we walked in you were drawn to the stage that was about 6 feet by 6 feet with four guys at least 6 feet tall playing on it with all their instruments, including a drum set. It
As we were driving toward Halifax all night last night, I forced myself to think about anything possible that would somehow keep my mind active so I wouldn’t dose off and kill Darryl, Trevor and I. I would listen to sermons and music and stick my head out the window and scream and talk and
Darryl and I have begun our road trip to Halifax, and we pulled into Kingston as our first stay over. Besides being the third wheel of Darryl and his wonderful girlfriend I had other intentions of coming to Kingston this weekend. Of course, part of them being I got to go out for nachos and
I’m leaving for Halifax in an hour for my best friend, Phil’s, wedding. I’ll still be updating the site though most likely, so stick around. My best friend is getting married, holy crap, we’re all grown up. Well at least he is. This all happened so quick.
When I walked out of the Annex today a girl asked me where I worked, so I told her to guess. She said retail. That I serve customers. Then I said nope, I work at a church. Then she replied, well that’s sort of the same thing. I thought it was interesting that a fifteen
For those of you that are curious. Monday night went amazing. We had over 100 young adults show up and I think they really enjoyed themselves. There were a bunch of problems (of course) like we started an hour late and it was hotter than the tip of the sparkler that I burnt myself on
Tonight is the big night at the Industry. 7:00 is begins. Make sure you are there! Bring some money for a donation and to buy drinks after.
When Bayfest comes to town, it is the biggest rave. Usually everyone in Sarnia goes to the concerts that are going on. Then we get thousands from other cities that surround us. We’ve had some pretty sweet (to some people) bands in our little city of Sarnia such as Our Lady Peace, Sum 41, Blink
I was giving my testimony at a youth group a few weeks ago, and after I was done the youth pastor asked me a few questions. The first question he asked me was this “So Nathan, after all this, would you say that it was easy? That living the Christian life is easy?” Obviously he
I remember the first article that I ever wrote was about Joe leaving to Calgary. I still remember that whole time period in my life. Lauren and I had our nasty little break up and Joe had just left, Dom was planning on leaving. Darryl was leaving in a month, Phil had just left for
I’m working on a few things on the site lately, so keep an eye open for updates. The photo gallery is now up, its a brand new one, so most pictures arne’t in yet, but they will be! Also, the long awaited resources section will be up and running soon.
I’m playing tag on my blog, this is hilarious, Andrew tagged me. I answer these questions when i’m tagged. Now I tag Lewis, Darryl and Amanda. How many books do I own? Probably 100 or so and increasing. What’s the last book I bought? I just got back from Cornerstone and Relevant had a sale
I got to go to 5 lectures from Brian McLaren this weekend at Cornerstone, then I got to sit in a circle with about ten other people for a full hour and just talk to him in regular conversation. It was awesome. I was having trouble with the idea of the kingdom of God. I
This is to inspire some discussion, i’ve already written a blog on it, but i’m interested in what people think before i post it. Would you rather have a world that where everyone that was religious was Christian but sat in church buildings and let the rest of the world die in their poverty etc.
For those of you that reside in Sarnia. I rented out the Industry for two nights this summer. The Industry is the bar (old theatre) attatched to Bayside Mall off of Vidal Street. I beleive it’s now Tequilla Rocks. We are planning on doing young adult worship nights. So book these Monday nights off. July
Sorry about the down time everyone. I’m switching servers so i get a lot more space and can host other people’s websites also, so the blog was down for a bit. The photo gallery is down for a bit too so i’ll try to get that up soon. Sorry again.
My sister told me that on a recent youth pastor test (whatever that is) she saw she thought of me when looking at it. One of the questions was: Are you always making sermon illustrations out of movies that you watch? I’ve been known to sit down with a pad of paper when watching a
Yesterday was a long and tiresome day. Not because I didn’t enjoy it but more because of the nature of what it held. I work at an awesome Baptist church in Sarnia and we went on a staff retreat kinda thing for the day. The staff at this church are amazing. They are so easy
