Because of Jesus,
We're here to talk about the wild, ridiculous love and grace of Jesus. So come along for the ride, and take time today to laugh, love & forgive. Never regret anything that makes you smile. Don't label people & focus on the positive. And enjoy EVERY sandwich!

The Chair
If you have ever walked into my office (or the office of any other youth pastor) then you have been one of the people who sat in "The Chair." A youth pastor deals with a wide variety of people and issues during the course of any given day, and the results are often funny and never boring. I have wanted to post this video here for a long time; I finally found this version through my friend Patti Gibbons blog (http://pattigibbons.com/?p=1290). It's sort of long for a blog post (16 minutes), but coming from the brilliant minds of The Skit Guys it is sooooo worth the watch. It is a wonderful & hilarious illustration of why youth pastors do what they do- and why I did what I did for 28 years. Enjoy. And for all of my youth pastor friends out there, never forget how important you are in the lives of so many young people. I know that none of you will ever forget anyone who sat in "The Chair."
Because of Jesus,
