Confession #7: Sharing what I believe

Chris on Jun 7th 2008

This might be trivial from your view point. But this is something I struggle with. Its a two fold problem really.
First I find it awkward to work this into conversation, sharing the Gospel that is. If you know me, I’m pretty reserved and quiet. I like observing, and coming away with thoughts. [...]

Confession #6: We hide, and were happy we can

Chris on Jun 6th 2008

I was actually working on this post previous to starting this series, and never really got to finish it, but I think it aptly fits cause I struggle with this one quite a bit. I also think this is more of a problem then one would care to admit. It deals with seeing [...]

Confession #5: Reading

Chris on Jun 5th 2008

I guess this one kinda goes along with the past two posts as well in the fact that I struggle with reading.  Reading the Bible.  I’ve always been taught or encouraged to read, read in a way that was more of a habit, bound by time and a specific way of handling the scripture.  I [...]

Confession #4: Prayer

Chris on Jun 4th 2008

This one is going to be short probably.  But this one is a struggle for me.
A lot of times I say ” I’ll pray for you ” or ” I’ll pray about this or that ” - and usually what happens is I end up lying.   I don’t know about you, but I end [...]

Confession #3: I’m obsessed

Chris on Jun 3rd 2008

Actually.
I’m quite obsessed with all the wrong things.
I’ve halted my normal reads, that I have yet to finish, to read a book called “Crazy Love :: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God” - by Francis Chan. It’s a really simple read. Its also a hardcore deep cutting book of self evaluation. It has simply ripped [...]

Confession #2: I am not Chris Baker

Chris on Jun 2nd 2008

Well, technically I am, but it seems that I get a lot of web access from the great state of Texas.  It also turns out that there was a rather popular radio dj who happens to have the same name as me.  From what I can tell his show or program has been removed from [...]

Confession #1: Why I left my Church

Chris on Jun 1st 2008

Today marks the one year point since I left my church of 23 years. I still attend a church, it’s just not this one in particular.  Don’t get me wrong, its not a time of celebration, I’m not breaking out the champagne or the noise makers - though that’s a good idea, maybe, just kidding.  [...]
