Well, it had to happen some time… I had to read Who Moved My Cheese, by Dr. Spencer Johnson. If you have not every read it yourself, I high suggest you get a copy (click on the title of the book) and read it for yourself. And I can honestly say, I believe that God had me read that book for a purpose.

Of course, Sarah had already read it, but she needs to read it again. In fact, my whole church could stand to read it. Over and over again, actually. It tells the story of two mice (Sniff and Scurry) and two Littlepersons (Hem and Haw), who are the size of mice and act a lot like us humans. And they are all in a Maze looking for cheese. One day they find some, and then….someone MOVES THEIR CHEESE!!!

I have been a Christ follower for 18 years. of those 18 years, the last 7 have been in full-time occupational service to Jesus. Or so I would have you believe. I have served 2 churches now as a Music Minister. Both situations have been both good and bad. I fondly remember those very hot days of setting up and tearing down all the equipment, chairs, kid stuff, and materials to carry out the 2 weekend services and I also have enjoyed retrofitting an office building to house a church. I have also enjoyed being a “real church” in two different situations. One was very edgy and contemporary and the second a little more conservative and still defining herself.
