I have the greatest job in the world. Sunday, June 26, 2011. SSN (summer sunday nights) recap 6/26/11. Http:/ nooma.com/nooma-sunday-004-rob-bell.php. Great conversations tonight based around how we can easily be the pharisee and how we by default become the face of religion to our friends. Main focus revolved around how God desires our hearts, not our best attempts at 'religion'. If your students were in attendance tonight I encourage you to chat with them about the conversation we had with one another.

I have the greatest job in the world: March 2011
http://mtdewproblem.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
I have the greatest job in the world. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. What you say matters. What you don't say matters. We can make a large horse go wherever we want by means of a small bit in its mouth. And a small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong. In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. James 3:3-5. Monday, March 28, 2011. Vocational Discipleship pt 1. Lens; student ministry. Don't mean to freak you out. Definite...

I have the greatest job in the world. Thursday, February 24, 2011. Telos - snapshot 2/23/2011. The Comfort in the Uncomfortable'. Seeking Christ in the midst of brokeness. Message in a sentence/paragraph. We either sit in one of two seats - the seat of the brokenhearted, or the seat of comfort. We tend to move from one to the other on the journey. If we sit in the comfort-seat we must. Invitation given to accept the Grace that is offered through the work of Jesus Christ. Where the Spirit of the lord is.

I have the greatest job in the world: April 2011
http://mtdewproblem.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
I have the greatest job in the world. Tuesday, April 19, 2011. Vocational Discipleship pt 2. Had an affirmation in a brainstorming/design team discussion today. We, and by that I mean those of us in ministry to students as staff, leaders and parents must do a better job of letting the stories of vocational discipleship be told and heard. Today I was reminded about a guy, whom I have never met, but have heard much about. His name is Michael. I know little about him personally, but more-so about wh...It is...

I have the greatest job in the world: language, love and South Mississippi
http://mtdewproblem.blogspot.com/2011/06/language-love-and-south-mississippi.html
I have the greatest job in the world. Monday, June 20, 2011. Language, love and South Mississippi. This is by no means a 'diss' of anyone from anywhere in particular. This is a rant, a struggle and therapy for a present burden. If you want to know what is in ones heart, listen to what comes out of their mouth.". I love my new job, my church, my students. I count myself blessed beyond measure. But I am burdened. Burdened by the words I hear fall so often from others mouths. Am I healed of this. No, I ...

I have the greatest job in the world: Youth Ministry Trap
http://mtdewproblem.blogspot.com/2011/05/youth-ministry-trap.html
I have the greatest job in the world. Friday, May 13, 2011. So I just co-hosted a small conference (or a discussion) among the youth pastors of the 100 largest churches in my denomination. As I am still trying to unpack the conversations we had, the learning we shared I find one pervasive element rising from this week - comparison. Don't get me wrong - I don't second-guess my calling or my gifts for ministry but I can't help thinking - "Why didn't I think of that idea? Or am I trying to please people?

I have the greatest job in the world: May 2011
http://mtdewproblem.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
I have the greatest job in the world. Sunday, May 22, 2011. There is a perpetual rhythm. Things change; beginning, ending and so-on and so-forth. In Youth/Student ministry we found ourselves in a season of change. For most of us we are celebrating graduates, welcoming new students into our ministries and for some of us wrapping-up job roles or even employment opportunities (job changes, like myself). All of this begs the question; How do we facilitate quality, meaningful, God-honoring 'rites of passage'?
