I don’t have that problem when I have anything else important going on the next day. My best strategy for major tests is to sleep when I should be studying (isn’t that right Matty?). Anyone else have this trouble? I know it might help if I weren’t typing this…but because I’m so wired this is basically the only time I get on here. In other news, someone in my class Tuesday night when we were required to tell our favorite book and movie (in a graduate class, no less), said, “My favorite book is the Holy Bible, and my favorite movie is Borat.” Okay. I love people, don’t you? That may sound sarcastic after what I just wrote, but I really do. I hope I’m making as much of an influence in the lives of others as some very wonderful people are making in mine. Goodnight (I hope). (3 older comments) barbershopboy05 ah reagan, you are such an inspiration! Coach is married and he is now pregnant as well! I think he might name the kid after you.  ashlee so you vanished off the face of the earth...no postings, no emails, no phone calls...personally, I don't believe this is Reagan  begooddontspit I'm with Ashlee. Man, you think after 13 years you could say Hello every once in a while...  sunshinelove05 what in the world are you up to? what state are you in? when are you coming to tampa?  e_smith_16 I have a coworker who came in my cube and told me that she had seen Borat and that it was horrible. She then proceeded to tell me about all of the scenes that made it so horrible. Okay...is right.  diminished_seventh i always hated you because your test-studying strategy usually worked.  imdifferent i like that technique... maybe ill try it sometime  hey_fish hahaha that is quite the complex, hehe so living off campus is awsome! although i thought i called you a while ago....we should catch up  masonoutloud I hav that problem on Saturday night if I'm preaching on Sunday (Sunday! someday!) I usually watch Thunderball.  allikat Hi Reagan! This is Allison and I saw your name on Jennifer F's blog. I couldn't resist seeing what you would post. Regarding your past-graduate studies...life is pretty amazing, no? People more so. I know that I have had some DUH moments in my Christian life, so I'll refrain from comment. However, these two favorites seem to be polar opposities! You can KNOW that you have made a difference in many lives here in Lindale. You have given us much food for thought from the perspective of a young Christian. It just proves that none of us is too old to learn and that "out of the mouths of babes" can flow much wisdom! Just so you know, there is a conspiracy underway to keep you in Lindale FOR-EV-ER!!!  ashlee did you die???  daphne did you forget about me?  jbonner Yeah I have that trouble. I worry that my alarm won't go off and I will sleep through my sermon.  txsongbird11 Okay - we need a serious jam session AND SOON! Get the amigos together, boss!  masonoutloud oh I'm all up ons that mixed up ego stuff.  begooddontspit OK...So I KNOW you read this thing...and I totally e-mailed you. Come on...do me a favor and at least say hello...I'm seriously about to get ticked at you for completely forgetting me...  macmcc Oh yeah. ;-)  kara15 does your girlfriend excuse me i meant to say fiance have a pleo?  sunnylee Hey Reagan, this is Laura Hawkins....Becky Helvey's cousin...and your old past CO camper friend!!! Congrats on the engagement!!  kelseylou Happy for ya'll. Camp was fun.  diminished_seventh By the way, since we haven't talked in eons...congrats on being, y'know, married...and stuff.  diminished_seventh I hear that our baby sisters are hanging out some at FC. Makes me feel old.  troutlikethefish Reagan, old friend, I've had that trouble ever since I started preaching. Many, many Sundays i go that day with no sleep at all. I hate it too.  canada hey this is danny linden from victoria. how r u doing?  engelishgentleman Reagan McClenny?! Wow. I haven't heard from you in ages. Cool! How are you doing? WHAT are you doing now?  login to comment hide comments don't want you or your visitors to see ads? join gold! Two True Views?...It's a pun....I see.... 07-23-07 10:58pm EST I wrote this in a fit of honesty late one night… (With apologies to Jady and Matty for the crude rhyme scheme, And thanks to Mason for the one-over)... View 1: You see, we don’t have a steeple. That makes us the Lord’s people. We hide it from others That they aren’t our brothers. We might offend them, you see— Then how awkward would it be? If we don’t make waves and go with the flow, Maybe our stand for truth won’t show. Our building doesn’t have a steeple, That makes us the Lord’s people. Our children can’t recite any Scriptures, But look how they quote the Hollywood pictures! It’s hard to find time to study, you know? They can’t fit the Bible between TV shows. They’re still young—just sowing wild oats; Teach them the truth? Is that a joke? No, see, we don’t have a steeple. That makes us the Lord’s people. “According to truth,” our service proceeds, Although the “spirit” just got up to leave. We sing a cappella and partake every week, And then listen (sort of) while the minister speaks. Yeah, maybe our hearts aren’t fully in it, But this is the way Grandpappy did it. You see, we don’t have a steeple: That makes us the Lord’s people. All those “other" churches out there Don’t have a clue; they better beware. I bet they wish they were as good as us, We don’t do bad things, we don’t even cuss! We follow the Law, every jot and tittle, Who cares if the “spirit” is lacking a little? ************ You see, we don’t have a steeple: That makes us the Lord’s people. We sometimes think only “what” is important— That the “how” will work out if we only ignore it. But without the fire in service to Him, We’ll lose our souls because of our sin. Faithfulness, zeal, loving Him with all of our might: These, with obedience, make us right in His sight. So live each day as you know the Lord would, Then you’ll know you’ve done all you could. You see, it isn’t the lack of a steeple That makes us the Lord’s people. View 2: Our order of service is a little bit odd. That makes us the children of God. We know in our hearts that our worship is right, How else do emotions fly up to such heights? If it feels so good to clap to each song, How in the world could God find it wrong? We know we’re pleasing in all that we do, Because to our hearts we always stay true. Our order of service is a little bit odd. That makes us the children of God. The name “church of Christ” is so out of fashion, The name’s not important when you’ve got lots of passion. If you have the “spirit” in all that you do, You can let the “truth” kind of “come to you.” The sermons are short and speak right to me, And they’re all one-hundred-percent scripture-free! Our order of service is a little bit odd, But that makes us the children of God. “Do good works,” something said… It may have been a book I once read. Well, we do good works just like we ought: And we talk to our neighbor, though we’re not sure about what. It’s the “doing” that’s really important, you see, It doesn’t matter what the content might be. Sure, our order of service is rather odd— That’s how we know we’re the children of God. Just look at how far we’ve progressed: We know it doesn’t matter how you’re dressed! We try and do things so that others take notice, Yet somewhere back there we lost God as our focus. We’ve forgotten His law in our minds and our hearts, And just having zeal won’t withstand Satan’s darts. Our order of service is rather odd: Clearly that makes us the children of God. ************ We sometimes think only “how” is important; That the “what” will work out if we only ignore it. But without the truth in service to Him, We’ll lose our souls because of our sin. Faithfulness, zeal, loving Him with all of our might: These, with obedience, make us right in His sight. So live each day as you know the Lord would, Then you’ll know that you’ve done all you could. It isn’t the order of worship, normal or odd, That makes us the children of God. jadyc I like it. Yes... I see... a poem... about the Bible!...  melissakae I actually read the whole thing. I like! :-)  waynezworld007 nice  bryanboyd nice.  subway That was great.  baseballcraz32 um, where would you want to meet? I'm studying with a mormon and I got some material but I can look at what you have. Just let me know  barbershopboy05 interesting poem, it certainly describes two predominate views in the church today. it's interesting how we let our perspective or approach dictate what is "truth". thanks for the poem and the thoughts  hanban I like it. Really.  kara15 It takes you half a year to update and you come up with something that I have totally already read...lol jk its still good...and just b/c i'm being nice by commenting on here does not in any way mean that I have forgiven you b/c i havent yet  thedill i didn't get paid, in fact i took a week off from work, although i did get a super cool camp tee for free!!  ashlee nope.
