The Prodigal Pastor

-
After being out of the Hayward pulpit four of the last five Sundays, I think the "missing persons squad" is going to come after me.

I preached back at my home church in Fargo, Ohio this past Sunday. It was a delight to see so many family members and friends show up, filling up their sanctuary, and nearly tripling the attendance.

The past couple of days, I've been in important board meetings at our headquarters concerning Native American Ministries -- and then headed towards home this afternoon.

I'm looking forward to staying home for a while!

    I hope you mean prodigal as in "profuse; abundant," rather than as "extravagantly wasteful."
    Welcome home!

If This Is Not A Place. . .

If this is not a place where tears are understood, Then where shall I go to cry? And if this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, Then where shall I go to fly? I don't need another place for trying to impress you With just how good and virtuous I am. I don't need another place for always being on top of things; Everybody knows that it's a sham. I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, Even when it's not the way I feel. I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes; Everybody knows that it's not real. So if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, Then where shall I go to seek? And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, Where, tell me where, shall I go to speak? So if this is not a place where tears are understood, Where shall I go, where shall I go to fly? -- Ken Medema
