Today was the most fun I've had on Twitter in a long while, after getting Twitter responses from Howard Scott Warshaw, the creator of such #Atari2600 hits as Yar's Revenge and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, as well as learning Twitter life lessons from Steak-Umm. Who knew? So much fun today on the Tweeter Machine. This week we're going to dive deep into what it means to have a crisis of credibility, and how we can try to work to fix it. That, and how much I miss the community pool and actually living like we knew each other.
Something New: Tweets from Howard Scott Warshaw and Steak-Umm. No joke. It was a highlight and a delight!
Mind of Mediocrates: From the 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Cycle B) we have readings in 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 and Mark 6:1-6. They've got me thinking of pride vs. humility, station versus meekness, defensiveness vs. apology and ownership. Jesus had done nothing wrong, but still the people ignored his teaching because they had his character pegged as something less than spectacular. Guess what? He "could not" (look it up, Greek nerds) do mighty things there because of their unbelief. God isn't going to step on our free agency, our will. It is a freedom he's given us. The answer to most of our problems right now is humility, ownership, and acknowledgement/confession of faults of our past and the past of what we represent. Humility - get you some, and pick up two for me because I need it always.
Something Old: I miss the community pool, especially all the fun activities we used to do at the pool around 4th of July. Those were fun times when it seemed like a million people were there at once, but all the neighbors, an actual community, showed up and spent time together, regardless of all the other things that divided us outside. I miss that. I think it can happen again though.
