I’m far from sold, but I’m guessing the netbook market jumps all over this. What if Google and Apple could get over themselves and collaborate on Apples new “touch” netbook type device using this OS. I would love to see what could come out of that. Neither would go for it and as much as I hate to say it, especially Apple.
Met a guy today that has been a sound editor in the film industry for several years. I was intrigued because he did sound editing for some of my favorite movies. Most notably; the National Treasure movies and Nacho Libre. So in salute to my new friend I give you:
Pretty interesting conversation this morning about authenticity. With all the churches out there using this as a catch phrase it begs the question: Is authenticity a good thing in the church? Hear me out. True; authenticity in your relationship with God is no doubt desirable and should be the goal. However, when it comes to the authenticity of a gathering that is made up of self serving consumers…. Is an environment that’s “authentic” for us, actually a healthy environment? The point is; our authenticity is a very ugly thing.
Which proves our need for Christ right?! Yes, but you can’t argue that our search for authenticity hasn’t become self serving. thoughts?
Amazing
I’m biased toward Victor, but they’re all amazing
I could watch these things all day
Pretty cool
Well maybe not ever, but this was close
Getting settled back in after the trip to the beach. Had a great time, got refreshed and ready to role. Just a little update on the recovery. I’m still unable to eat anything I want, only soft foods. I go back to the dr on Thursday, and hopefully he’ll clear me for a little more at that time. My lower lip and most of my chin are still numb. I am starting to get some tingling here and there in my chin I think that’s a good sign.
The church visiting process has become really interesting to me lately. I’ve started thinking about how long it’s been since I’ve been an “outsider”. It’s funny that I’ve caught myself talking about different churches and my preferences with other people a lot. I realized how easy it must be for a person to use their objections with each church to never go at all. I’ve felt convicted about the fact that I’ve spent so much time and energy trying to make someone feel comfortable to come to church. Don’t get me wrong, I think that can be a good thing; but in reality there’s always going to be something a person doesn’t like or at least is not “how they would do it”. Maybe only former church staff people think like that, I’m not sure. The point is , it seems like we should be saying something that cuts through our “preferences” and speaks to the fact that we should just plug in. In the end, will it matter where? What is it that could cut through all that noise and communicate something clearly that says “it’s not about you”. Looks like we’re back to the Gospel.
