30 Second Christian

Every morning on my way to work, I listen to The Buzz. At the same time every day, a 30-second spot runs for a local church, and it usually consists of the preacher relaying his daily message.

As much as I dislike organized religion, he’s almost made a believer out of me.

His name is Jim Jackson, and he relays messages about life through funny stories, quotes, and little jokes. But what I appreciate the most about him, is he actually acknowledges all the hypocrisies that I’ve encountered in religion. And unlike many fire & brimstone preachers, his message is one of hope & self-realization. I can relate to that. It’s something I struggle with every day. I can’t get into the Thees & Thys and Thou Shalts. I mean, I get the message, and it’s a good one, but this guy puts it in every day perspective, and how it all effects the little things. And he’s FUNNY.

So my mother will be proud. I go to church every day for 30 seconds.

    Funny, I go his church most Sundays. That’s my extra job. I wish more of his parishoners would pay more attention and lose that mercedes mentality.
