An amusing exercise…


I actually haven’t really done one of these before… it is the blog equivalent of a chain letter… I guess.

Anyway via Jeanette at PoMo Kidz blog here is the exercise…
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don’t you dare dig for that “cool” or “intellectual” book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.

So here is what I grabbed… no joking…

“Fortunately, there are things you can do to increase the amount of breastmilk your baby is geeting without using extra food or weaning. Low supply is usually a temporary difficulty. Occasionally it is a longstanding problem and the breastmilk has to supplemented with formula or food from a spoon. This can often be done carefully so breastfeeding continues. Here’s a general guide for a temporary low supply. Ask your partner and other family members around you to read this as well.”

Baby Love - by Robin Barker. Pg. 123.
I guess that’s what you get when you have a new baby in the house. No keen insight into ministry leadership, prayer that moves nations, but instead helpful information to deal with a low supply of breastmilk!

I have four kids and I breast fed my other kids to 2-3 years old. (Bode is just 3 months old and totally on breastmilk).Breastfeed on demand, the more you feed, the more you’ll produce. Then drink soup, fish soup’s great for milk if you can stand it. Chicken soup’s good,too. In China breastfeeding moms eat a whole fish every day. Stress is not good.

“The scores of those tests seem to be the onlyh thing people use to judge the schools’ effectiveness. When the test scores are released, the politicians talk about making the education system more accountable; they’re just expliting the schools so they can get elected” (Becoming A Teacher, Parkay et al. 2005).
A little bit of a case study about the pros and cons of standardized testing.
This is definitely a neat idea. Interesting how the book closest to you says something about your life (you’re a new dad, I’m studying to be a teacher)… Not to sound too preachy, but I think it’s important we remember that this applies to other aspects of our lives, as well. What’s around us and what we allow around us reflects who we are inside and what our values are. We should take care, as Christians (espeically as role models for kids), that what we reflect is always wholesome and Christlike.

Here it goes:

What are other helpful leadership characteristics for team member placement? Who are potential team members who are either misplaced or not being used? What did we learn in this chapter about why leadership is so crucial to church-team development?
The Five Star Church by Stan Toler and Alan Nelson

That was kinda fun- or I am just really bored???
