This evening after Auburn beat the Arkansas Razorbacks, a group of my friends came over for some enchilladas and fellowship. We ate on the deck just laughing about life and quoting "Princess Bride." Then we carved pumpkins. God has blessed me with friends who know how to laugh at themselves but also can be so dedicated to their beliefs. It is amazing how you can find out about someones heart just by watching them carve a pumpkin. Or maybe in the grand scheme of things it is not what we did other than spend time together. I think back to my family, the night of Christmas carols around the tree, the Friday night Game night. Even when I was too young to play Rook or Scrabble, I was still spending time. I wonder how much better relationships in the church body would be if we spent more time in just normal life rather than looking at the back of their head for an hour.
