Your Plans This Weekend

Here are my plans for this weekend:

Hmm. Come to think of it, I have no plans for this weekend, other than going to church on Sunday morning. I see before me the makings of a great weekend! I suppose this means I will spend plenty of time reading, though admittedly I haven’t felt much like reading the past few days. I’ve been struggling my way through a book about the authority of Scripture, but have generally preferred doing other things.

Apart from what I have to do this weekend (which, as we have seen, is nothing) here are some things I hope to do this weekend:

  • Write at least the first of a two-part article about The Emergent Church for a magazine. I told the editor I would try to have the first submitted by March 25, so the clock is ticking.
  • Watch “The Incredibles.” That shouldn’t be hard to difficult to force myself into doing.
  • Play with the kids.

Now you know my plans. What are you up to this weekend?

    I Regret to Inform You That Heaven Tourism Is Back

    I regret to inform you, dear reader, that heaven tourism is back. The genre possibly never went away entirely, but it did at least disappear from the bestseller lists for several years. Sadly, it has returned in Gabe Poirot’s 18 Days in Heaven.
