    <description><![CDATA[I'm Bekah's man, Ben and Isa's dad, and a Jesus lovin' Mennonite currently residing in Ohio, where I pastor a church. I read, I write, and I blog. I love a good cup of coffee, or a good pint of beer. I'm always open to a conversation over either brew, so long as it involves a sufficient amount of scheming.

Some random facts about me:
-I own a purple pair of sweatpants. They are comfy.
-I was once a pretty good baseball player. Now I'm all washed up. 
-In my former life, I was a barista at my lil' ol' Christian college. I've served lattes to Bill Malonee, Bebo Norman, Ray Boltz, Shane Barnard, Erwin McManus, and a bunch of other people you may recognize. I like to think that I caffeinated their performance. 
-I don't like eating mushrooms, and I don't like wearing ties. 
-I have a set of webbed toes on each foot. And yes, you may look and touch. 
-I like Macs. Macs from Apple Inc., not McDonalds. 
-My son Ben is a spitting image of my wife, and my daughter Isa is Guatemalan. Thus, I have two children that look nothing like me. Baby #3 is on the way, though (fingers crossed).
-I once caused the Israeli Defense Force to create and impromptu roadblock on a major Israeli highway (it's a long story). 
-I like school. No really I do. If I could get paid to be in school the rest of my life, I'd be the luckiest man on earth.
-I think Virb is sweet...much better than MySpace.

      <description><![CDATA[On my way back to the office after lunch, I rode my 'new' 80's era vintage Schwinn cruiser. It's the old coaster brake style. Very cool. . . pics forthcoming. Bekah has a matching lady's cruiser. We plan to paint the town red with our matching red cruisers.<br /><br />Yeah, we're THAT couple.<br /><br />And it's all thanks to Craig and his wonderful list. I love Craig's list.<br /><br />Anyway, on my ride I saw no less than 5 people I knew, and I was able to stop and talk to them.<br /><br />If I had been insulated in my car, all I'd have to show for my commute was 5 courtesy waves hello, a couple dollars burned out of my gas tank, and some calories left unburned from my belly.<br /><br />Instead, I rode my bike to work, and was able to actually have 5 real conversations.<br /><br />You may be thinking: "Well, Drew, you live in a small town...that's different."<br /><br />Is it?<br /><br />[Donate to the Moser family's mission in Vancouver!

      <description><![CDATA[I spoke at <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://tnchurch.org">True North Church</a> in Wauseon, OH last Sunday...a small church with a big heart and an even bigger impact.<br /><br />They podcast their weekly services, and you can listen to my sermon <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?i=24946643&amp;id=250389197">HERE</a>.<br /><br />This is the first go-around [of 3 churches], so it's a bit bumpy in spots. My gifting is not preaching. . . Billy Graham I am not. But overall, it think it went very well. I used a few phrases that I won't again (for example: I mentioned 'Christian nation'....I don't think the U.S. was ever been a 'Christian nation'...but that's another story), and I'm going to clarify a few points I though might have come across a bit muddy.<br /><br />Also, a few visual notes: I used some powerpoint slides, and referenced it in my sermon. Also, I was preaching next to the biggest pop-up tent ever.<br /><br />I'll be speaking the [roughly] very same sermon this Sunday at Salem Church in Gridley, IL. So if you'll be there, don't listen to the podcast. It'll ruin the surprise...<br /><br />[Donate to the Moser family's mission in Vancouver!
