12 Step Program for Blogging

I have meant to post this earlier, but it has been a busy week since we came home from Marriage Retreat. I wonder if they have a "12 Step Program" for Blogging? Above is a picture of our State Overseer for our church. As you can see, he is blogging during Marriage Retreat. I had Big D take this picture for me. Now I thought I was a blogging fanatic. But he beats me by a mile! Brother McKinley is an awesome overseer! I couldn't imagine a better overseer to be under and work with getting my minister's license. You may wonder why I want to post such a picture as this. Well during Marriage Retreat, our special speaker was Dr. Knoblich, state overseer from Washington State. The Knoblichs and the McKinleys had a conversation about "Rednecks". The Knoblichs didn't know what it was and Brother McKinley had a difficult time trying to explain it. Well in the process, Brother McKinley took out his cell phone and took a video of the Knoblichs in the middle of a store. He shows us this video after telling us if he hopes we can help him with a definition of what a redneck is to share with the Knoblichs. That was the wrong thing to say right before showing the video! As I watched the video, it came to me. So I write this down, "Definition of a Redneck: One who videos you in the middle of the cereal isle with his cell phone". After Friday night service, I hand Brother McKinley the note. He reads it and starts laughing and told me "That is good!" I can see him sharing it with the Knoblichs and their reaction was priceless. I am so proud of myself UNTIL.....

Saturday Brother McKinley gets up and says, "Yesterday I shared with you to try to come up with a definition of a redneck for the Knoblichs" I looked at Big D and said, "Oh man! He isn't gonna say what I think he is!" Big D says, "You didn't think he wouldn't?" Brother McKinley continues, "Well a young lady hands me a note. Now I won't tell your her name..." I am thinking, "whew thank goodness" He finishes by saying, "...but her intials are (and he says my name!!)" Those that didn't know me knew it was me by my red glowing face! Then Brother McKinley shares the definition and of course everyone laughed!

I know bible says "revenge is mine saith the Lord", but I like to help out when I can! Just kidding! I wouldn't post this if I thought it would hurt his feeling. I truly love and appreciate Brother McKinley.

Until next time.....

God Bless~
