I don't know if I could ever get any of that stuff together. Sometimes I think I should work at the guitar more.

It's not about the physiological, it's more important for teens to read about the emotional aspects. I do think there are times when self-censorship is important.

• I'm right now wrapping up the sermon series on grace. I'd like to figure out what this next series will be in January.
