The Epic Conclusion

The Epic Conclusion

Years ago Sarah and the boys and I watched all the Marvel cinematic movies.  You know, The Avengers, Iron Man, Thor, etc…It was 22 movies over the course of 11 years spanning stories that take place over decades and decades…and we knocked it out in a few months during 2020.  When the final movie of the original journey wrapped up with Endgame in 2019 there were lots of people that just assumed they could go see that movie without seeing 20 other films.  

Yeah…you can…but that is like skipping to the end and watching the series finale of M*A*S*H or reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows or simply watching the Super Bowl without putting in the time to journey all the way there.  

A Bernedoodle and Spring Break

A Bernedoodle and Spring Break

Many of you know we got a puppy a little over a year ago.  

Many of you also had to suffer through my complaining about us trying to raise this puppy.  

Many of you were likely taking bets about how long we would have Brittany the bernedoodle before we got rid of her.  

Many of you have also noticed I haven’t talked about her, I haven’t used her in sermon illustrations, and likely you assumed we got rid of her.  

So to clear the air, Brittany is still a member of the Beard family.

Quick Travel Reminder

Quick Travel Reminder

Whenever we travel, inevitably someone in our house forgets something.  

A travel pillow.

Headphones.  

Deodorant.  

Winter coat.  

Kevin!

Just kidding, we haven’t left a kid home alone while we went galavanting in Europe…yet…

We know in the next several weeks people will be traveling.  

Some people will be coming to town for Spring Break.

Some people will be leaving town for Spring Break

Some people will be staying off 30A because of Spring Break.

Whatever the next few weeks hold for you, I want to let you know about a few things.

Unintentionally Living a Life of Crime

Unintentionally Living a Life of Crime

I want to talk about a few things.  Valentine’s Day, Ash Wednesday, Lent, and parking this Sunday for worship.  But before we get there…

I don’t usually try to commit crimes or do illegal things…but sometimes it happens.

The other day I was waiting at a stoplight behind another large car trying to turn out on 98.  I couldn’t actually see the light around this massive vehicle, but my car has one of those fancy sensors that tells you when the car in front of you drives off.  I think it’s to help you when you are not paying attention and missing a green light because you were distracted by your phone, your kids, or daydreaming.  So instead of the person behind you honking since you aren’t paying attention, your car beeps at you since you aren’t paying attention.
