I went to an OKC Thunder game tonight. BORING! I'm not really a big sports fan, I guess. I used to be but probably more because I was surrounded with it and my dad loves sports. I loved going to sporting events freshman year of Hillsdale. They were fun, I sat right there next to the floor, and I knew/lived with the kids that were playing. That is way more exciting than rooting for some dudes I've never met and make millions of bucks. That sucks. It also pisses me off that everything costs three times what it should. Coke, three bucks. Beer, six bucks. No thanks. Me and unnamed friend who took me to the game were probably the least interested people there. We just talked about the usual crap, you know, theology blah blah blah. Thats pretty much all tonight was. A six hour conversation with different settings. First a car ride, then a super loud basketball game, then a pub, then another car ride, then my house. Good times, good chats. Tonight I actually got to try some different brews than usual. So far I haven't really been able to try out different stuff but we went to a place that has tons of stuff on tap. I tried a sample tray and it had a very interesting dark beer, I think called Youngs dbl chocolate. It wasn't bad. The other stuff was alright. I also tried some ciders and they ruled. That was pretty much the whole night. Fun times. Tomorrow night I'm going to see my friend colin's band play and to hand out some flyers for the benefit show. Peace out friends.

Sunday

I went to church this morning. It was pretty tight. So, we're in the middle of advent. Growing up, we never did anything adventish. I guess its just christmas but for the whole month? Last week Moses preached and it was awesome. He talked alot about the prophets. I appreciated his comments about the prophets being in the church but coming the margins. It made me think of Ched Meyers saying something to the extent of "keep one foot in the church, keep your other foot in the world but keep most weight on the latter." I guess Moses tried to dress up like he was homeless or something. It just confused me but it was funny. For the most part he was just calling everything how he sees it. I admire him for that. He seems to always speak his mind and not be afraid of stepping on people's toes when he knows he needs to speak the truth. James preached today and he went the route of John the (ana?)Baptist. It was awesome. I love JtheB. He is one of my favorite people in the bible. Moses read some stuff from Isaiah last week so that means my favorite two prophets, two weeks in a row. James was telling us JtheB's message is still totally relevant for us today. Stand up/speak up to the powers to be(even if kills us). I've never heard stuff like that in church growing up. JMC is pretty tight. After church we had an OCC meeting. I'm hoping to get involved with that. I've really been wanting to get involved with some sort of military counter-recruitment so its awesome that there is an organization thats actually looking for young people to do just that. Thats all I got. I'm trying to read Politics of Jesus by John Howard Yoder right now. I have way too many books laying around so I get distracted very easy. OCC benefit show friday night. I'm pumped. Peace out girl scouts.

Long time coming

So here is the deal, I wouldn't mind blogging. I'll try to start.
This is whats going on of late.
I live at home. Its pretty cool. I love my parents, they are really awesome, and its been good to hang out with them after being gone for so long.

I go to Joy Mennonite Church. It rules. I never knew so many cool people existed in Oklahoma. The people are very kingdom minded and that rules. Just going there has shown me how much stuff is going on in OKC. Its encouraging.

Its looking like the Infoshop will be having a benefit show for the OCC next friday. I'm so pumped.

I went to the SOA protest two weeks ago. It ruled. JMC helped me out and that ruled.

I met John Dear. That was crazy. I just finished his latest book, A Persistent Peace. That dude is crazy and his story is even crazier. Check him out. His book is being offered for free as a e-book btw.

What should I do with my life?
