Francis has been posted

I put a couple pictures on Laura`s Mind: The Fotolog. I'll put up some from College Briefing probably next week, but for now, the picture of Francis from my room at San Luis Rey and a walkway at the mission.

:::COLLEGE BRIEFING:::

Well, I am back from :::COLLEGE BRIEFING:::. It was great. Bryan Loritts is a powerful, truthful preacher who obviously listened in homiletics class. More on his preaching later.

For now, this:

Preaching on Philippians 3:17-4:1, Bryan posed a question on Friday night:
"If you wer to die today and those who know you best were given the task to bury you in a way that clearly and accurately depicted how you'd lived, how then would they bury you?"

Frankly, the question bit some. Here's the splat:

BURIAL PLANS
guitar
books
music
Starbucks
Gus
TV
somewhere
too far down
below the earthstuff,
filling my moments,


Jesus


If I truly believed
that this world was not my home,
how would I live?
Would ANYTHING be the same?
