Worship Chapel Offense

Yesterday, during corporate worship chapel, the worship leader made a comment that a lot of people thought was very offensive. We were singing Shout Unto God, and after singing it one time though she told us that we were going to sing it one more time and to shout and yell because every week we sit and cheer for our favorite sport teams but we are dead in worship of our awesome God. I totally agreed with her, this is something that I have said to people before. However, I heard that many people were greatly offended by this remark. They said that they do not worship by yelling and the way she put her words made it sound like if you do not yell then you are not worshiping God. This, however, is not what she was saying! She was simply saying that we should be excited about God! We should not stand and let the people on stage sing songs. We are to engage our God and tell Him how much we love Him. Therefore, my own opinion is that if you are excited about not going to Hell and you truly understand that God has saved you, then what would be the problem with shouting your love out to God? Let's not get offended about peoples words, and let us just remember that worship is not meant to be a dead event, God is not dead.

Gen Ed... Really?

Shabot Shalom Everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and getting rested up. Yesterday I took my Intro to Communications midterm and while taking the test I got very upset at how ridiculous Gen Ed classes are. Now I try not to complain much, but I can't let this one go. Why do teachers of Gen Ed classes make the class so dang hard! They know that most of the students in the class are not interested in the subject or even plan on taking further classes in the discipline. However, they insist on making the class unnecessarily hard and difficult. Make the the class simple, let us get A's. It's not that hard of a concept! I just had to get that off my chest...

Ok... So I finally gave in and let R.T. help me make a blog spot. I am going to try and start posting every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Well it's late and I have a midterm in the morning. So until Saturday,
