Sobriety is something that I've struggled with for a while now. As I'm sure many of us can understand, it can be a roller coaster ride.

Scared to death

I just had a meeting tonight with a personnel committee at a church that wants me to come do their youth ministry. In the past, this wouldn't have phased me in the least. In fact, I would have jumped at the chance. But for some reason this scares the crap out of me. I suppose that I'm dealing with feelings of inadequacy.

Thanks again for being so accountable. It's my fault that I didn't deposit your check and then forgot about it until it was too late.

Help! I held on to your check for the black sampson society wrist bands (actually I put it away and forgot to cash it).

I'll eat the $30 fee but I'd like to not have to eat $50

At 2:01pm on April 14, 2009, Jameson Sheppard said…: Cool man, well, where would be a good place for you to meet up? I was thinking of bringing one of the guys here at the office along as well, Bryson, I can see if he is available. I'm really excited about more people finding out about FBH (as we call it) through Samson Society and other places online. I would be good for like Sunday lunch or something or Saturday, too...

I've got your number. Will call or write.

How are things going, is there anything in particular you need? We've got lots of people and resources in the office that a few of us could sit down with ya if you like... just have a great conversation.

At 11:34am on April 14, 2009, Jameson Sheppard said…: I read your blog post about the church interview to work in youth ministry, was it? How's that going?

Not sure yet whether or not I'm free this weekend, I'll check my schedule and get back to you...

At 8:33am on April 13, 2009, Jameson Sheppard said…: Hey Tyler,
Yeah. That sounds great. We actually have some projects we are working on that we could use some input on. And it would be cool to grab lunch or something as well...
