I know, some of you are already judging me for the title of this podcast! My reality is that I struggle with Christmas, and through the years I've developed some sound coping strategies to help me deal with the most "jolly" time of the year. In this episode of the podcast, I share those thoughts and much more.
I don’t know if you noticed or not, but my blog has been inconsistent. In February I only blogged twice. That never happens to me. Since starting this blog over three years ago I’ve only missed blogging once a week a couple of times.
Three years ago this week I decided that I would stop drinking alcohol. I wish I could tell you I did this for an overtly noble reason, but the reality is that Jay Meyer asked me to stop drinking while I was serving as the pastor for Next Step. When he asked me I was appalled, I was shocked. Then, I was furious that something as unimportant as alcohol could have such a hold on my life. Really, why couldn’t I just give it up? Why did something that seemed so silly elicit such a reaction?
