The Sound of Silence: Three steps to giving a sermon guaranteed to start a discussion:
http://ogukuo.blogspot.com/2009/09/three-steps-to-giving-sermon-guaranteed.html
The Sound of Silence. Three steps to giving a sermon guaranteed to start a discussion:. 1 Choose Psalm 139 as your text. 2 Add Proverbs 15:3. 3 Start the sermon by likening God to George Orwell’s ‘Big Brother’ who is always watching for mistakes. This pretty much describes the sermon we had Sunday morning from a guest pastor. The title of the sermon was “WATCH OUT! 8221; Yes, that was actually the title, and yes, it was all in caps lock. Oh be careful little hands what you do. My name is Philip. I am...

The Sound of Silence: New apartment!!
http://ogukuo.blogspot.com/2009/11/new-apartment.html
The Sound of Silence. After several months of religiously checking Craigslist and Property Management sites, Andrea and I have chosen an apartment to move into! Its on the outskirts of downtown Bellingham, on the corner of "H" St and Bancroft, if you happen to know Bellingham. Its a two bedroom, 1.5 bath, one living room, one kitchen, upstairs apartment. Its got two smallish decks, one of which has a partial view of the Bellingham Bay! I'll try to post pictures once we've moved in (in about 2 weeks).

The Sound of Silence. Bursting into the blogging biosphere! Now that I've got the catch-up blog out of the way, I can write about whats going on now. But, instead of doing that, I think I'm going to break back into the blogging world with a random list of whatever is on my mind. So, here's nothing in particular, just thoughts and stuff about me. I do everything left handed. Except play guitar and throw a frisbee. I hate leaving messeges. I sound stupid and never know what to say. I've recently discovered...

The Sound of Silence. Dr Bob told me a story. Recently, I was talking to a friend of mine who has been a practicing dentist for 35 years. I'll call him 'Dr. Bob'. Dr. Bob was telling me of a patient of his, a 34-year-old man, who had literally been seeing him his entire life. On one of his last visits, this patient told Dr. Bob that he had googled him to find out what his political views were. His patient looked at him and said "You're one of those tree-hugging environmentalists, aren't you? Awesome Inc&...

Yes, I'm trying blogging again, too. Life is much less stressful now.

The Sound of Silence. City of Subdued Excitement. This post is inspired by an email Andrea got yesterday (you know who you are). Reasons to live in Bellingham:. 1 Its big, but not too big. There is pleanty of things to do around town, but is not overly crowded. 2 Its small, but not too small. You see people you know around town, but its not a small-town rumor mill. 7 Its got great places to buy food. The community co-op, Trader Joes, and a weekly Farmers Market. As organic as you want to be! 10 Its got g...

The Sound of Silence: God's Family
http://ogukuo.blogspot.com/2010/10/gods-family.html
The Sound of Silence. That evening, we met with our small group from church. This resulted in multiple offers of rides if needed. After church, one of the elders walked us to our car to make sure it started, and to jump start it if need be. Ive had the same experience, living in a city without immediate relatives nearby. God has chosen to bless me with some really selfless friends who show the love of Christ. Its so comforting to know that you will have family wherever a true church is present. Hey you, ...
