Novel Update

Well, the novel is still moving forward, although it is truly a Shitty First Draft. Apparently there is more to writing a novel than just producing words. I am going to make it to 90,000 words, I'm sure of that, but whether I arrive anywhere, that's another thing.

Plodding forward.

Frustration

Is there no pastor to tell us of the good things the Lord has done for the sinner; are they all here to beat the flock?

A reflection on the propensity of pastors to focus on emphasizing that the congregation to be "good," rather than focusing them on God's goodness and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. To hear most of them, it would seem God is not involved in the believer's life.
