I’ve been meaning to tell you something…something you probably already know.

In fact, God told me you would receive three free sins if you helped me out and, not only that, you would have a grateful pastor.

(No, it isn’t indulgences. I can’t really give you free sins!)

Okay, I want to make sure you know about PoopedPastors.com.

I have a major concern for pastors. It’s a concern not dissimilar to a former drunk having a concern for someone not yet set free from booze. Okay…uh…not … (Read More)

Go out and offend someone!

Steve Brown May 6th, 2009

I spent all day yesterday with Joe Battaglia and John Frost.

Who are they?

I’m glad you asked. Joe is our Italian agency guy, the president of Renaissance Agency in New Jersey, and the least slick person you ever met.

(Tony Campolo asked me a couple of weeks ago if I knew the difference between an Italian wedding and an Italian funeral. I allowed that I didn’t and he said, “One less person.” Sorry. Tony said it. I, of course, would never say anything like that.)

At any r … (Read More)

Have I Learned To Like Change?

Steve Brown March 5th, 2009

I just resigned from Reformed Theological Seminary.

Scares the spit out of me!

(Well, I didn't totally resign. After this semester, I will no longer be a full-time resident professor. I will, as it looks now, take on the title of "Professor at Large" and teach modular courses-weeklong courses-at our different campuses of Orlando, Charlotte, Atlanta, Jackson and Washington. They were going to call me "Professor Emeritus," but that sounded like I had retired, started drool … (Read More)

News Alert: Be Very Afraid!

Steve Brown February 12th, 2009

I may have told you before but, for a short period of time, we had a Playboy link on this blog. It was kind of jarring to the Christians who saw it.

If you clicked on it, do you know what happened?

No, no, no. We wouldn't do that!

If you clicked on that link, you ended up at the website of Campus Crusade for Christ with an opportunity to hear a plan of salvation.

I would have left it there, but Jesus made us take it down. I think he said something about the ends not justifying the means and … (Read More)

Throwing Rocks

Steve Brown January 26th, 2009

Nancy Pelosi—may she get the hives—said that one of her favorite moments from Inauguration Day was when Marine One lifted off the Capitol grounds, signifying former President George W. Bush’s exit from Washington.

Adding to her contribution to unity and bipartisanship at the Inauguration, she said, “It felt like a 10-pound anvil was lifted off my head!”

I’m going to restrain myself here from saying anything more about Pelosi’s comment because…well…uh…because some of you are D … (Read More)

Afraid, guilty and tired!

Steve Brown January 15th, 2009

Do you know my favorite thing to do…right after jumping off buildings and getting a root canal?

It's grading papers.

Do you know what I'm doing right now?

Well, I'm writing to you, of course, but what I was doing before writing to you and what I'll do right after writing to you is…

…grading papers.

I remember once at Disney when I was with our grandchildren at one of those "character" lunches. Our daughter, our son-in-law and my wife deserted me an … (Read More)
