  • Sarah & I are both using the Full Focus Planner (aww...so cute)

    As a person, I'm a planner. However, I've never wanted to actually use a paper planner. Sometimes they look big & bulky. Other times I just saw it as one more thing for me to leave behind accidentally. Lastly, I could never wrap my mind around better using my time by using a tool that requires time to maintain. I just didn't get it.

    But about a month ago, I gave the Full Focus Planner a shot, and - I - love it. Serious game-changer.

    I suggested Sarah give it a shot, and she said "no" (sigh). {:-(

    But then she said "yes"! (Woo-hoo!) {:-D

    Tonight I'm helping her set it up. Listen to us talk about some initial feelings about it, and expect an update as to how it's going at some point in the future.

    If interested, check out the Full Focus Planner at fullfocusplanner.com.

  • Sunday Recap (10/7/2018)

    Pastor Aaron Barnett blessed us with an excellent sermon from Matt. 5:5, which he preached to another record-breaking crowd at Grace Fellowship Fort Thomas (that is, if the numbers are right).  It was a great day.

        • Baptism (Part 1): Baptism does not save us from our sins.

          Part 1 in a series of episodes re: baptism. In this episode, I briefly discuss what you can expect in the series, and then hone in on two main points:

          1. Baptism does not save us from our sins.
          2. Baptism does symbolize our salvation.

            3. Yes, that's a lawnmower you hear in the background, but it goes away after a few minutes. #HomeOfficeProbs

          3. Sunday Recap (9/30/2018)

            Thankful for Jesús Cantú's sensitivity to God's seemingly impromptu leading among us at church today. Also, looking forward to publishing some episodes this week re: Baptism, breaking down my sermon from back in May. That sermon and today's sermon by Pastor Brad can be heard at graceky.org/sermons.

          4. Sunday Recap (9/16/2018)
            Sometimes in my cynicism, I tend to withhold talking about the good that God is doing to "see if it's real," or "see if it sticks" or other such nonsense. It's ridiculous, and sinful. This is my attempt to brag on Him, right here, right now, because He's doing great things among us - right here, right now.
