my appointment

We're back in Georgia after our week in Panama. We had a lot of fun, got to know some of my fellow pastors, and got to know Bishop Willimon and his wife a little better. We had a lot of interesting conversations and stories, which will likely be shared later, but for now I thought I'd just mention that I know what I'll be doing next year.

During a discussion about how lame and stupid Carson Daly is, the Bishop pointed out that "someone just needed to take him out" so we wouldn't have to endure his lameness. I pointed out that I would be coming up for an appointment this year, and that we could probably make a case that me taking out Carson Daly would serve the preaching of the gospel. The Bishop observed that going up to New York, into the "heart of darkness" as I called it, undertaking this mission had a "high risk of becoming a tool," but that since our vision statement is "taking risks and changing lives" I might have to take that risk. Anyway, rather amusing if I do say so myself.
