I have met the most wonderful girl.

Hey Pastor Tim!

How are you?  I just wanted to send you a quick thank you for recomending eHarmony to me several months ago.  I have met the most wonderful girl, her name is (removed for privacy).  I am very supprised at how much we have in common.  If I were to put in a special order to God for the perfect girl I don't think I would have done any better. 

I wouldn't have tried it if you hadn't recomended it, so thank you.

Same Sex Marriage In Canada?

DEAR PASTOR TIM,

WHAT IS YOUR OPINION ON THE REPUBATED ANTI-BIBLICAL BILL THAT WAS PAST TO ALLOW REPUBATES TO MARRY?

MY OPINION IS AS FOLLOWS: I AM THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED WITH CANADA AND THE FACT THAT THE GOVERNMENT PAST SUCH AN EVIL BILL. ANYBODY WITH HALF A BRAIN KNOWS THAT EVEN DOGS KNOW BETTER THAN THESE REPUBATED PEOPLE.

WELL, AS YOU CAN SEE I AM VERY UPSET ABOUT THIS SAME-SEX MARRIAGE LAW. I JUST WISH MORE CHRISTIANS WOULD HAVE SPOKEN UP AND THEN MAYBE GOD WOULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING ABOUT IT. NOW, I FEAR THAT HE WILL AND NOBODY WILL LIKE WHAT HE WILL DO. OH WELL, I GUESS WE ALL KNEW . . .

Airbag

Pastor Tim,

Wish you had harped a bit on the possible dire consequences of anyone removing an airbag just for gratification of "self-pleasurings".

I'm unsubscribing from this Digest now, by the way, because you have failed to show the compassion incumbent on a true pastor of the flock.

Or maybe, to you (and many other insensitive Americans like you) only issues that directly impact the USA are worthy of concern...in which case I, an African in Africa, should expect nothing but generalised "soul-less" platitudes from you in the event of our experiencing any disasters...since you've remained (at least in your publications to date!) impervious even to the terror of 7/7 London.

Remain blessed, and may God lead you aright.

Shalom!!!

Tsunami Sermon Feedback

Dear Pastor Tim,

I have been on your clean laugh list for what must be over a year now.  It remains a blessing to me to open a clean and cheerful email from you every morning.  Your site is truly salt and light on the net!!

I have just been listening to your 'Tsunami Souls' (Listen Here) as I finish packing my bags here in my home in New Zealand in preparation for flying out tomorrow to do aid & relief work among the tribal groups along the coast of Southern Thailand.  I just want to thank you for your message, it has been a real source of encouragement and motivation for me at a time when my head is too full of too many thoughts.  The reality and the simplicity of the message of Jesus Christ and the cross really brings everything else back into focus.

I grew up on the island of Phuket where my parents worked as . . .

  • Hall of Flames

    Hall of Flames - Pastor Tim's Hate MailThe world (and unfortunately some churches) have many discontented people and spiritual bullies. So when you try to uplift, entertain and encourage people, (and maybe even make them laugh) it only stands to reason that every now and then someone is going to go off the deep end on you. On the internet that deep end usually manifests itself through a vitrious and gall filled e-mail sent so the author can get his/her jollies by blasting you (otherwise known as a "flame").

    Here is a collection of some of the more entertaining flames I have received. Don't worry about me. I've been around enough to know that such people come with the territory. Only, my approach is different that most other's. Most usually just get quiet or apologize in order to either placate the flamer and avoid getting burned up totally.

    Me, I'd rather have a good laugh at their expense (after all I didn't make them type what they typed) and, in the case where they may attend the church I pastor, tell them to straighten up or go find another church to wreck.

    Nobody eats sheep while this shepherd is on duty!
