Sorry for the blogging hiatus over the last couple of weeks, life has demanded my attention elsewhere. So to celebrate my return today I will share my reflections on The Man of Steel movie that came out over this weekend and the theology embedded there in. I would love to hear your thoughts as well.

April 9, 2013
Fantastic games, the movement of the Holy Spirit, the subtle racism of sports coverage and more in this week’s ramblings… I am finishing up Mike Breen’s Leading Kingdom Movements this week.

Mondays are for Florida Gulf Coast University Ramblings..
March 25, 2013
Bacon, basketball, Palm Sunday, being part of a movement, all this and more in today’s ramblings… It was truly a wonderful weekend. Somehow life afforded me rest and abiding during Lent, right before Holy Week. That is almost unprecedented in my time as a pastor. With the kiddos gone for Spring Break Gretchen and I […]
Rob Bell says stuff, people react, should we care?
March 19, 2013
There has been a bunch of hubbub in the last couple of days about some statements made by preacher and former megachurch pastor Rob Bell. Bell is no stranger to controversy or headlines. His book Love Wins pushed some very big theological buttons with evangelicals and set off a firestorm of controversy, and much to […]

Mondays are for Laughter and Smiles…
February 18, 2013
It is Monday, President’s Day at that. A day to give thanks for two score plus white men who have guided our country throughout its history. ( I don’t think many of us think about honoring our current president on President’s Day). It just seems like a good day to laugh. So here are some […]
Mondays are for Reflections on the Problem of Evil and Gun Violence
December 17, 2012
There shouldn’t be a moment of fear and pain for a parent when you are simply waiting in the drop off line to take your kids to school. I have a beautiful 6 year old boy and a precious ten year old daughter that I dropped off at school this morning. As I said goodbye […]
Mondays are for The Battle Between Past Greg and Future Greg Ramblings…
December 3, 2012
You know who I think must be a genius? Future Greg! On the show How I Met Your Mother one of the recurring jokes has been about Future Ted and Future Marshall. When Ted and Marshall want to procrastinate, are unsure of how to handle a problem or don’t know what to do they simply […]
