"If there is anything I can do for you or your family just let me know!." I HATE THIS PHRASE. Come on people those words when spoken mean you are not KIND or COMPASSIONATE enough to stop your selfishness to help. Quit patronizing those that need help and just do it. I call this JOCO, I am too busy making my life safe/easy syndrome. Dam, just go hold her hand if can't think of anything else! FaceBook Post
From SM - MP, I would try to do anything for you, but you are hopeless ... !!!! :)

From CC - Is everything ok? If you need anything let us know... We are here for ya. :)

From TJC - MP, you know Shara and I are always there for you guys
September 18 at 9:40pm
My Reply - This is not about me my friends and thank you I know you are there and have been of great help when I needed it. My intent here was to share with you my experience with my sister who is terriably ill. I have noticed those that offer help and those that just give help. Soup kitchen,mentoring young people, coaching, helping at school are acts that we just do with being prompted for details. Just Help was the point. Do anything, most times people in need will not let you know.

From CC - Couldn't agree with you more!

How Mister Preacher Did You Come Up With That Version?
I don't think those who preach the Prosperity version of the Bible have ever really read it. Joel O. you forgot to read the Gospels of Jesus Christ who was born of a virgin, in a manger, poor, from podunk village, mocked, spat on, beaten, nailed to a tree next to thieves. murdered. Jesus said take up your cross and follow Me. He who loses his life finds it! See video Stop sending checks to Joel Osteen.
From JS - Podunk village?! Nazareth had some great foam parties and bustling rave scene during the first century!

From SM - Do people still send checks to preachers? C´mon !!! Bank xfers are so much easier...
September 18 at 1:52pm
From KO - I have always thought there was something fishy about that guy. Not sure I know enough about him. I am with u.

From TV - more growth during pain, God talks to me when I am hurting and praying, when things are going along okay i tend to drift and God has to pull me back, right now I am in pain and praising God and it has been amazing, i still hurt but there is a comfort there knowing he is with me

Prosperity Christianity Junk
If you think Christianity is about making you a nice guy or good guy then your sick. The truth makes you good not nice because speaking the truth hurts most of the time. Oh and this Prosperity Christianity thing is the devils way of taking you and me out of the battle stripping us of our passion to fight and defend. Here don't listen to me see what Pastor Mark Driscoll says! How pastors should be preaching! Enjoy the expresso shot. Click Here For Short Video

From DZ - Hey MP -Thanks for the post. After watching the video, it seems to me that Joel gets some his ideas about victory launched in the right direction, but they aren't targeted, nor refined enough. By trusting Jesus through his grace, he gives us the power over sin through his Spirit. We are new creatures and given a new life (Colossians 3 and Ephesians 4)with the ability to say no to sin because he conquered it through the resurrection. It seems to me this is where Joel's messages need to be strengthened. He needs to bring in more Christ. Another thing that it seems is missing is the idea of God putting trials in our path to test our faith to produce endurance that will lead us to be perfect and complete lacking in nothing. (James 1:2-4) I have yet to find God saying to us in the Bible that he wants to be comfortable, rather he wants us to be holy. That is he wants us to be perfect and complete ... and he will use any means necessary to make that a reality. Blessings.

Don't Go To Church
"If you want your life to go well stay away from Jesus." John Piper, Pastor at Bethlehem Baptist Church. Good reason to not go to church or believe. My life has gone to well. FaceBook Status Post
From AS - Yes, but in context this could mean that life is easier in some ways for nonbelievers because they never have to question their choices or examine where their free will leads them astray.
September 12 at 8:19pm
My Reply - My experiences tells me we can get away from not believing or from not questioning our own wills until the big Bang happens in our lives. The bang that signals "i am not really in control after all". When that happens we two methods of living 1. numb up, get addicted drugs, alcohol, sex, sports, tv, shopping etc (takes our mind off of reality and ourselves) 2. Pray to God to save us from destructive(evil) self for Him to open our hearts to understand pain is part of life and is good for our souls growth and that He is in control. For if you know pain, you surely know love. You cannot really love in choice number 1.
September 14 at 5:35pm
From AS - I totally agree that you are closed off from loving fully until you relinquish your false sense of control. All I was really saying is that "stay away from Jesus" is kind of a tongue-in-cheek suggestion that believers know is the way nonbelivers cruise through life thinking of no one but themselves -- they can define their life according to their own precepts and stay away from the things that push them into the pain of self reflection. Narcissists are all about this concept.
September 14 at 10:01pm
My Reply -Do you think they will make a pill for Narcissism? How would it work? Remove our selfishness!! Maybe then we could put it in the drinking water and change the whole world!

Old Friends and The Matrix
Right now your feeling... I can see it your eyes.. Do you believe in fate? I don't like the idea that I am not in control. You felt it your entire life that there is something wrong with this world. You were born into a prison. You take the blue...... the story ends you believe whatever you want. Take the red pill and stay in wonderland and I show how deep.. Remember all I am offering is the truth..Follow Me. Jesus/Morp The Movie "The Matrix" FaceBook Status Post

From CS - So what happens when I take the red and blue with Jack Daniels backer, and I get an erection for more than 4 hours. Who do I call, again.
September 11 at 7:53pm
From DP - hilarious chuck, I can't top it, but I have done that. Don't call your wife or your mom. either call Palitto, Morpheus or johnny knoxville. one of them will think of something.
September 13 at 11:45pm
My Reply - It took you all this long to get me! You are much slower in your old age. In our youth you would not of let me have as much time to hang myself. What are friend for if they wait as long you have to chime in on my craziness? Happy Bday Chuck hope you drink too many strawberry daiquiris and throw up all over your wife and stain her white negligee that you stole from a stripper last week out on 175th Street and 169 hwy.
September 14 at 5:22pm
My Reply - Your wisdom is correct we all take both pills chasing them down with our favored numbing potion to only wake up here and there with a hangover and a minor feeling of guilt. You can call anytime and I will talk you down!(no pun intended)
September 14 at 5:26pm
From CS - Mr. P, How are things going with you? I had to finally chime in, you have to hit bottom before I can bring you back from the depths. I never steal negilgee from strippers,I usually wear it as some sort of hat! Thanks for the bday wishes, off to Norman Ok to watch my sooners play, and spend a few nights on the uncles farm.
