Craig Groeschel, senior pastor of LifeChurch.tv, did a series of posts last week on “Running Effective Meetings”. If you’re part of a church and have been involved in running meetings, admit it, you’ve probably run sucky meetings.
Have a read of the following posts and suck less:
Yo bro, the mo had to go, but you can still give it some dough, so go! Put it this way, remaining married for the rest of November was more important to me than cultivating the 3 hairs above my lip. Hope you’re having a killer weekend. Peaceout.

You’ve been waiting for it. I’ve received email after email requesting a photo, and comment after comment from strangers impressed by my moustache growing abilities. It’s quite bushy, no really, it’s just blonde and hard to see from a distance (though it now has a 6.5m visibility threshold). Go on… give my Mo some money!

If you’re not about to sit an exam on this stuff, have [...]

The Mariners won last night - we’re now sitting in second… giddy up!! Reuben came up to watch. It was Reuben, Llyeton Hewitt and 5 other random Adelaide fans against 8000 Central Coast supporters! Read Reuben’s match review.
The Mariners may have won 3-0, but Reuben is definitely beating me in the Mo-Stakes. Believe it or [...]
11.16Jesus Muzik - Lecrae
It’s bed time. So that this blog isn’t too dominated by exam gear, here’s Lecrae. Word.
“The concept of divine revelation was central to Augustine’s epistemology, or theory of knowledge. He saw that revelation is the necessary condition for all knowledge. As Plato argued that to escape the shadows on the cave wall the prisoner must see things in the light of day, so Augustine argued that the light of the [...]
“I seek thee, O Lord, in the faith that you gave me. The time has come to call to mind my past sins. My mother followed Christ, yet I was not baptised. I shunned the path of friendship and pursued the passion of fornication. I, with other young scoundrels, committed the sin of theft in [...]
