Signs...

Sign #1 it's time to make some changes/take better care:

When your 10:30 appointment says "You look kind of like a homeless guy today."

And yeah... he's right.

More on why and what I need to do about it later.

Is that because your hat was all dirty and scratched?

depressing... There's something really depressing about watching a 40-something be interviewed for a job at Starbucks by a 20-something. "Tell me about a time you experienced conflict in the workplace... Why do you want to work at Starbucks?" and so on... I always to to tune those out, but sometimes, they're sitting right in my field of vision. Like I said- depressing. UPDATE: I have a lot of friends who work for Starbucks right now- it's not so much that piece. I probably should have left the name of the company out- it's irrelevant to the "depressing" factor. To me- it's the part of watching someone (anyone) be interviewed by someone who's literally half their age and have to jump through the little interview hoops with them, you know?

Organic Community... "Sometimes we focus so much on building a 'healthy church' that we forget to tend to the health of people." - Joe Myers, Organic Community In the short, 3 year history of our little pub church, I've put only two books in the hands of our elders (I need to do more of this, but...). They were Men and Women in the Church by Sarah Sumner and Doug Pagitt's Reimagining Spiritual Formation (now retitled Reimagining Church). After diving into this last night I think I found the third. Yesterday I received for review and already read about half of Joe Myers' Organic Community: Creating a Place Where People Naturally Connect . His book The Search to Belong was nothing less than a complete paradigm shift for me in the way that I viewed community and relationships both inside and outside of the church. So... I've been looking forward to this one for awhile. "When planning for organic community, the question that will move us forward is 'What are we hoping for?' not 'Where are we headed?'"- Joe Myers I won't get too deep into the book in this post, other than to highly recommend it. I started it last night...
