I was playing darts last night for league, and was sitting down with one of my teammates and his wife talking about God and everything else. I was listening to their criticisms of church (and hearing their stories could totally understand why they were criticizing), and in the midst of conversation, I mentioned how a couple of people at the bar there told me that if I started a church, they would come.
I joked with them and said, "Yea, I could be the pastor of Westwood (the name of our bar)."
My teammate's wife said, "What are you talking about? You ARE the pastor of Westwood!"
I hesitated for a moment. She explained that I was the person that everyone goes to if they want to talk about "these kinds of things" and the "deep stuff of life."
Gotta love it.
That's so great that they see you that way. Pastor Mike!

dude, that is awesome. That is the kind of title that I want. Pastor of a bar.
I am so jealous right now.
