Why Jesusgreek? Jesus: I'm a follower of Jesus. Greek: I'm Greek. I'm also...Husband. Father. Pastor. Friend. (OK, that last one is debatable)

Our desire is to create a fun, safe, and informative web presence that will appeal to kids of all ages. Each week beginning Jan 13th we will have a 20-30 min webisode featuring our community, interviews, reviews, how to's, music, art, games, and lots more.
This endeavor has been created and launched by two dads (myself and Nathan) who wanted a website their kids could enjoy but also would serve as a tremendous resource to parents, teachers, grandparents, babysitters, and anyone else that has or works with kids.
I've had the opportunity to lead several small groups based of the Francis Chan book "Crazy Love". The discussion questions that come with the DVD study leaves a lot to be desired. So through my own personal questions and questions from other "Crazy Love" resources online I've been able to develope a more indepth study of the book. Below are the questions I have used for all 10 chapters of the book study. Feel free to use them as you'd like. Chapter 1: Stop Praying Stop and think about the last prayer you voiced. How did you begin? Our Father? Dear Lord? Jesus? What word or phrase did you use to start the prayer? Now, take a minute and consider the prayer you prayed before that prayer. How did you begin? Same word or phrase? Different? Sorta different or radically different? If you begin all your prayers in much the same way, ask yourself why. Read these words from G. K. Chesterton: A child kicks its legs rhythmically through excess, not absence, ...
After spending much of my full time ministry life in the United Methodist Church, I found this article very interesting. It's written by Mary Jacobs and she nails the fact that most UMCers are scared to death to mention the "S" word (Satan) or the "D" word (Devil). Jesus stood up to him. Plenty of Christians talk about him. And some blame all sorts of evil on him. But likely you won’t hear his name tossed around much in a United Methodist Church. Could it be... Satan? “For the most part, you don’t hear mainline Protestants talking about Satan, the devil or the demonic,” said Jaime Clark-Soles, associate professor of New Testament at Perkins School of Theology. “I think we’ve handed that kind of language over to the fundamentalists.” Though Methodism founder John Wesley talked about Satan in his sermons, the United Methodist Church has no official doctrine on the devil or the demonic. Few Methodist ministers in the U.S., it seems, preach about Satan as a personal...
I personally thought this past weeks episode of The Office was the best so far this season. Here are a few of my favorite quotes from "Night out": Pam Beesly: There is a master key and a spare key for the office. Dwight has them both. When I asked, "what if you die, Dwight? How will we get into the office?" He said, "if I'm dead, you guys have been dead for weeks." Michael Scott: [on the phone] I am. I am getting out there. Well, no, I've asked a lot of girls to dance, Mom, they're just- it's not- listen to me for a second. Yes I shaved the back of my neck. Oh my God, Mom I've gotta go one of my friends is getting beat up by some girls! Kelly: If I had created a website with this many problems I'd kill myself. Ryan: Do you have a question Kelly? Kelly: Yeah, I have a lot of questions but number one, how dare you. Michael Scott: I know that a lot of you are very angry at Ryan because he is the reason that we all have to come in...
