God’s Pottery is a “Christian Acoustic Duo” that was featured on NBC’s Last Comic Standing.
I can’t decide if these guys are degrading all Christians by falsely portraying us as ignorant or if they are just poking fun at all the hokey “Christian” stuff that deserves to be made fun of.
Funny or offensive?
These are some of the funnier April fools jokes I’ve seen across this internet:
- Tim Ferris isn’t real! – My wife mentions this possibility every time I talk about Tim Ferris. Because of the believability I totally fell for it at first. This was the best crafted of all the 4/1 jokes I’ve seen.
- Send your email back in time. This was so hilarious. “Gmail utilizes an e-flux capacitor to resolve issues of causality”
- PayPerTweet – I don’t even twitter and this had me rolling.
- Chris from Canada Bay – This was totally original. Chris really committed on this one as well and went into a whole speal about it. I almost coughed up a lung laughing so hard when I read:
“There are lots of beautiful places we could decide to live but the only choice we had – outside of the country of Canada – was Canada Bay, if I wanted to maintain my ChrisFromCanada.com branding”
- Consuming Food – Jeff took the opposite approach and ditched his branding in favor of something new.
- So did Los. I thought J-Rocka’s comment was pretty funny. “god” was just downright mean.

Praise and Worship Baby

While gathered around the dinner table this evening the Chia family was discussing the woes of hand motions and worship songs. I was reminiscing the years I spent leading worship as a camp counselor and the 37 different sets of hand motions that I know for the song Lord I Lift Your Name on High.
Sarah, Evie and I were singing the song and doing the motions and kid-you-not, on cue Ashlyn “raises the roof” like it’s 1995!
In my last baby worship post I showed Ashlyn going for the guitar. Lately we can’t keep her away from the piano.
Here she just thought she was on a roller coaster.

How to Shower
Published October 15, 2007 Blogging , Humor , Photography , Spiritual Journey , Tutorials 43 CommentsTags: Blog Action Day, Christian, Environment, Fauxhawk, Funny, How To, Navy, Navy Shower, Religion, Save, Shower, Stewardship
For blog action day I’ll be talking about how to take a shower.
Steps to Proper Showering Technique
Step 1. Turn on the water.
Step 2. Get in the shower, and get wet.
Step 3. Turn off the water.
Step 4. Shampoo hair.
Step 5. Make your shampoo’d hair into a fauxhawk.
Step 6. Soap up.
Step 7. Turn on water. (again)
Step 8. Rinse off.
The procedure described above is also called a navy Shower, (maybe Chris can tell you more about showering in the navy) but I call it “The only way to shower.” This type of showering has become my passion lately.
It has so many benefits:
Get more Free Time. I used take long showers. It took me a forever to get ready for events and my morning routine was ridiculous. Now I can be in and out of the shower in less than 15 minutes, substantially increasing the amount of time I have to do other things.
Spend less money. Seriously, since I started taking navy showers our water bill dropped by $10 a month!
Help the environment. God has called us to take care of the earth, not exploit it. As Christians we should be leading the discussion in caring for our environment. Navy showers are a one way to be a good steward of the resources God has given us.
Warnings
- Use less shampoo. With out the the water constantly running to wash the suds out of your eyes you will need to use less shampoo. (Which is also a bonus becuase your shampoo will last longer.)
- Take care when washing feet. Again an excess of suds on the feet can make the shower floor slippery. Exercise caution.
- You may become a green phreak. Taking navy showers just might make you feel so good about being a good steward of water you may start using good stewardship principles in other areas of your life.

I saw this hilarious video over at Doug’s Blog:
10 Ways for Worship Leaders to Hinder the Church
I love how Doug makes a classy move at the end and gives some encouragement.
I totally agree with the sarcasm of his statements on pushing the limits.
Taking strategic risks is one thing. You need to go out on a limb to get the fruit right? At the same time the guy who always lives on the edge eventually falls off. We need to be compassionate and loving as we encourage people forward in their spiritual walk.
More on Bad Worship Lyrics
Published September 11, 2007 Blogging , Family , Fatherhood , Humor , Photography , Worship Leading 8 CommentsToday I checked my site, and Laura Anne posted this comment about the song “I could sing of your love forever.” It reminded me of a great link I wanted to share. The easily offended need not click, but those seeking a hilarious romp of a post should proceed to:
Danny’s Blog Cabin – Top 5 Worst Worship Songs
At dinner last night my family was talking about all the other comments from my post on changing the lyrics to worship songs and I started signing, “Lift my hands and spin around.” I kid you not, on cue Ashlyn pumps her fist in the air:
Only 7 months old and already a worshiper. The other day I caught her trying to escape the walker to play my guitar:
You know this girl’s all about following in her dad’s footsteps. Now I just need to remember to raise her to write good lyrics.
Joel dropped me a tag to post my favorite movie clip. I’m done with my video so as promised here it is:

The Contest
Given all this profile pic changing going around I thought I’d ask:
Have you seen a picture of me that I should use as my new profile pic?
Drop a comment in the next 7 days and I’ll switch to a picture that someone suggests. If I select the picture you suggested (or photoshopped and emailed to me: billy1979 [at] gmail [dot] com) then you will win a post on Inept as Icing where I will make fun of your blog and link out to several of your pages.
On a serious note
God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit is the only one with real power. Everything I accomplish is by Him, through Him and for Him.
When the Water Park Closes
Published August 13, 2007 Family , Fatherhood , Humor , Marriage , Photography 2 CommentsToday we created our own homegrown waterpark.
Sarah and I agreed to leave the computer off all day and spend some family time together. We thought it’d be fun to go to a real water park but apparently they’re only open on the the weekend.
This is what we resorted to:

We confess the sins of making the world’s worst worship confessional after leading worship for Youth Week at Aldersgate United Methodist Church.
When I saw these raspberries that Sarah bought the first thought that popped into my head was,
Is it possible that Mark Driscoll is an enthusiastic post modern theologian as well as a manufacturer of delicious post modern fruits?
Strange I know, but I guess I can’t make fun considering the products that feature my last name.
Ok, seriously google “Satanic Power Shirts”
Too funny. This should last until the next time Google spiders my site.
Mark Driscoll Loves My Coffee Cup

At which point my 6-year-old daughter walks in and says, “Hey, that’s my cup!”
After coffee I went outside to install some bigger subwoofers into my retarded car.
Look at Rick Warren’s very next blog post right after I posted about baptism.
I think he’s been reading my blog.
This vid came up under the related links on Sarah’s Youtube site.
So funny.
Sarah and I took the laptop to the Vineyard yesterday. We bought Eve-Marie her 1st real Bible. (It’s an NIrV Adventure! Bible as opposed to a Children’s story book bible) Then we sit down in the cafe and took a look at this website:
