    Church Clean Up?

    We have people who clean regularly so I don't think that ever happens. Usually someone with a particular interest in an area takes the initiative if they want something cleaned up, although it usually runs into some political issue along the way. You know, you can't get rid of the choir robes...

    Worst bible study that you wouldn't recommend?

    I struggle with anything from Andy Stanley. I've seen a few video series of his and every time I came away wondering why I could hardly remember anything of what he said - at the end of a 20-30 minute video I was really struggling to remember more than one or two points he made. Then I noticed...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Drinking my morning coffee and doing my morning puzzles. Then I get to fiddle some more in my work room. Yesterday I was doing some final prep work ready to put the sound proofing material in place, mostly making sure any remaining air gaps were sealed so that cold air couldn't find a way past...

    Mutual Ministry Group?

    Not at the moment. A friend and I have been thinking about how things might improve regarding accountability within the church

    StairLift

    I can't speak from experience but from what I gather some of them take up enough space that it can be hard to use the stairs regularly, even if they are folded.

    When you're asked to pray with them

    If something is an all-purpose prayer the chances are it won't fit any specific occasion very well. I'd go for something off the cuff for that reason alone.

    Who will win, Trump or Harris?

    True, although my point was more that she fell at the first hurdle in the 2020 election and went on to become something of a media darling.

    Who will win, Trump or Harris?

    In fairness there are a number of Republicans who do the same thing.

    Political Phone Calls/Texts?

    I ignore texts. Usually I ignore calls but if one slips through (usually because I'm expecting a call but don't know what number it will come from) I just string them along for a while. If the Republicans call I pretend to be a hardcore Democrat, if the Democrats call I pretend to be a hardcore...

    Who will win, Trump or Harris?

    I still find it bizarre that Harris has come so far. The one who dropped out of the 2020 primaries before they'd really even got started, presumably because she realised her campaign was going nowhere. Then the party of diversity, having shaken off the kinda-sorta black woman, proceeded to shake...

    A Christian song you don't like?

    You'd need to define what counts as a "Christian song".

    Who will win, Trump or Harris?

    Harris talks about what she'll do, but she's had nearly four years in the White House and hasn't done them. I don't care for either candidate but on balance I have to say I prefer Trump.

    When people say I'm a Christian but...

    It depends what follows the but. I've come across a few strange misconceptions about what Christians are like in the world, and more than a few people who are Christians who give the impression you have to be on your best behavior around them (I suspect at least some of those have their own...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Hard run today, my watch finally stopped suggesting I do recovery runs and proposed a hard threshold-level run. Three threshold intervals today, I managed the first one without any trouble, the second one was hard although I maintained the suggested pace, and the third one was more than I could...

    Popular People at church?

    I largely agree with Albion in that the people who are more involved and more outgoing are naturally more popular. The person who shows up for the Sunday service and leaves the moment the last amen is said can hardly be surprised at being less popular than the person who attends more events and...

    Toast Darkness?

    If they are organised 123 456 789 then my preference is 3-4 but 2-7 are within what I'd consider acceptable. I'd put 1 back in the toaster and probably throw out anything that got to 8-9 and try again.

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Sounds fun. Is it a botanical garden with the focus on specific plants, or more like an open space where you can walk around and there happen to be more cultivated plants than a wild forest? I always enjoyed finding unexpected things in the woods when I was hiking. One day I found a couple of...

    Trump Harris Debate?

    It's definitely a problem, when you combine the tribal voters who always vote the same way even if they don't know why, and the ones who vote for someone because they have a nice smile, or they are a "good Christian man" or whatever other vague term is thrown around. Perhaps we deserve to be...
