The Rev's Reflections: March 2007
http://clarksonpc.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Tuesday, March 27, 2007. Well, after arriving in the office today, I found that the April issue of the Presbyterian Record had arrived. and several people had already told me that had read my article in the magazine. I've just proven to the world, or at very least, to the Presbyterian Church that I am indeed a Geek. Nerdy enough to do theological reflection on comic-book characters. So I hope people enjoy the article! Posted by John Crowdis at 2:34 PM. Links to this post.

The Rev's Reflections: November 2006
http://clarksonpc.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Tuesday, November 28, 2006. Back on November 18, I attended an event at Knox Presbyterian Church in Stratford that was a seminar and discussion on a book called ". The End of Faith. By Sam Harris. Harris has become increasingly well known for both this work, and another one called ". Letter to a Christian Nation.". Response to life. So wish me luck, I may tread in places that angels fear to tread. Posted by John Crowdis at 3:02 PM. Links to this post. Admittedly, the le...

Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Monday, January 29, 2007. Well, it was close! I literally came within one word of serving on a jury. I found the whole process interesting, especially realizing that all 100 that were on the Jury Panel were there for a. I am still curious about using the metaphor of a "summons" to describe God's call to us. It was interesting that each person who provided a reason/excuse as to why they could not serve were excused from this jury, but would not have the 3 year exempt...

Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Sunday, July 30, 2006. In order for us to sign on the dotted line. Needless to say, their credibility went out the window, along with any potential future business with us. And I shake my head. It's all hot air. and there goes our credibility. I preached today on David and Bathsheba. Posted by John Crowdis at 12:44 PM. Links to this post. Thursday, July 27, 2006. This is a picture of the Sanctuary in the church I presently serve.

Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Wednesday, April 18, 2007. Well, I'm back in the office after taking a few days off. I have my work cut out for me, spending much of today working on the sermon for Sunday as well as taking care of a necessary visit.

Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Wednesday, February 28, 2007. Maybe we need to a bit more digging ourselves. Edit: Well. not quite off the radar.

http://clarksonpc.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Wednesday, December 27, 2006. It's been a good Advent and into Christmas, all told. Things went well on Christmas Eve, to the point of an unexpected applause after the sermon. Caught me off guard to be sure. The past few days since have been reasonably good, catching up with friends talking to family on the phone. But then there was tonight's phone call from my Dad. We'll miss you Nana. Go with God. it's time to rest. Posted by John Crowdis at 11:22 PM. I think in part ...

The Rev's Reflections: August 2006
http://clarksonpc.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Clarkson Road Presbyterian Church. Thursday, August 31, 2006. I can't think of anything? I do find that it takes a certain amount of discipline to maintain a blog. Perhaps writing it into my schedule or to do list in order to write. Down at least a couple times per week, if not every day. I was once told that if I am having writer's block, that I should simply sit down and fill pages and pages with the words. I can't think of anything! I guess I am hearing echoes of last Sunday's sermon ringing around in...
