been a few weeks, heres whats up.  things are incredibly slow at the railroad so much that they’ve cut back most of the people they’ve hired in the last 2 years.  I’m probably about 30 or so guys from getting cutoff myself but word is they won’t reach into people hired in 2006.  anything can happen though and right now i’d probably say there is at least a 30% chance I could get cutoff within the next 3 months or till things hopefully start picking up next spring.  Obviously that would really suck but I’ve long since learned that I need not worry about money and where it will come from as its always resolved itself in one way or another, especially if i’m not wreckless about it or completely untrusting of God in the matter.

So KSU hired Bill Snyder, obviously my 2nd choice as you can see in my previous post.  hey, i’m a lot more optimistic than if Prince were around next season.  No reason we can’t win at least 7 games and go to a bowl.  Honestly, even with moderate success I wouldn’t be surprised if Snyder went another 10+ years.  He’ll need to make astute assistant hirings for this to really work like it used to.  I think he’s still got a few magical seasons left.  I have some hope here.

Abbie and I did find a new church its called Crossroads Christian Church and its a lot more like what I grew up with than was Jacob’s Well.  The biggest difference really is Crossroads actually talks more openly about the how and why of being saved where as Jacob’s Well kinda skirted the issue which I just thought was odd.  The preacher at Jacob’s well even gave a sermon one time about why they don’t openly present the Gosple and it kinda made sense, I get not wanting to pressure anyone or whatever but to never present the message i think isn’t right either.  I’m willing to overlook a lot of differences between churches but to never show people how to become a Christian seems like a big thing to leave out.  that said, the Well is still a good church, they reach a crowd that probably isn’t normally reached these days and they do a lot of good in the community.  Abbie and I though are pretty happy with this new place.  It feels right.
