so yeah. back at Peet's. had to go through some major table-jockeying to get a table where i could plug in my laptop.

it eventually happened.

listening to some thrash/hardcore music (currently) while starting back on my PACT work.

it's due Thursday. it's possible.

oh man, I think life will be so much more down-to-earth without this thing weighing on me.

just got fully ROCKED in my brain and my soul by reading the book of Titus last night w/ @heathernesbitt. Unbelievable! Paul somehow knew that people would get so worked up and angry when fellow Christ-followers devote their whole life to DOING GOOD.

I understand what sound doctrine is. Doctrine is merely a set of beliefs and a bank of knowledge that you hold true and right. SOUND doctrine is learning how to live so that what you believe agrees with what you do... EVERYDAY.

So, all these "Amen" hollers in church whenever someone mentions 'sound doctrine' and 'holding to the truth' need to be PROVED and MADE REAL by the movement of your BODY, FEET and HANDS. Lip service is self-service!!

I am still working on my PACT. I mean "working." I just finished writing tests that I am giving tomorrow and friday. It's nice that the rest of the week is mainly tests.

Still at Peet's, drinking a white mocha (hmmm).

had a great convo last night about how so many christians love to hate on Obama (thinking of him as some sort of Muslim, renegade who is infiltrating our bank accounts, churches, and patriotic sovereignty) and homosexuals (somehow christians assume that they're 'different' in their sin 'n' such. it's almost like christians think there is a separate hell for them or something).

Hating homosexuals and thinking you're better than them, especially because you are a Christian, is sickening to Jesus and has no room in the Gospel that Jesus showed. In fact, when Jesus talks about WHO is in hell, the person that is mentioned is a rich man who ignored the needs and plight of the beggin and crippled poor! NOT a homosexual! see your Bible (Luke 16:19-31). Again, rich man... not gay man.

Ok. I need to pick up on my PACT. Gotta finish writing some lesson plans and then talk about a video I made of myself teaching in my class. Woo hoo!

for those familiar w/ the PACT assessment. I am nearly done. It's alot of work that seems meaningless.
