Ok Chuck

colorful church window
Our Church window. Haven’t been to our Church in two years. The Church next door has the potential to become our Church.

If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

Yes.

And, be kind to all because everyone is going through a hell no one knows about.

Ok Chuck, ready when you are.

Help those less fortunate

Affluence at $143 per day, per person, simply to enter. Affluence doesn’t buy peace, contentment, nor respect.

Please note this update: Today’s five posts were written months ago. Remember, these blogs are a trail for our son…for him to hear and experience through my words what life blesses us with and how we honor those blessings. God has blessed me with a new, enlightened perspective. What you read today (written months ago) is not where i am now. Where i am now will delight and surprise you. It did me. Now, back to original, in-that-moment commentary…

Help those less fortunate.

i’m two streets over and the noise disturbs our peace.

Noise gets louder the closer you get to the Church property.

To be a neighbor whose back yard, back porch, living room, kitchen, dining room, master bedroom and or children’s bedrooms face the Church, the unwelcomed noise pollution is unacceptable.

Note: The Church’s success is in the community’s best interests. Personally, i’d love for this Church to be my family’s Church. To be able to walk over any time, seven days a week. It will be amazing to see this Church be a hyper-local beacon of Faith, Hope, and Love. It is(?) or will be(?) the Church’s honor and duty (just as it is every citizen’s honor and duty) to be a peaceful neighbor. Everyday, all day.

Some visual aids

Ignorance is no defense is a Pastor quote. i added “loud noise” as a reflex response.
Pastor quote above.

A four-part short-video series to document a habitual level of loud neighbor noise for extended periods.

After the video above, the noise subsided for 10 minutes. The PA system was not adjusted. Shot this video and sent it to my neighbor who had just a minute before texted me asking if i can hear the Church noise. Already on it.

The lower noise volume didn’t last long, so the Sheriff non-emergency line was called. The Orange County Sheriff met me at the neighbor’s house (the neighbor adamantly approved of this), agreed on the code violation, and responded at the Church. This helped but required a second call to Sheriff. Five hours of neighborhood disturbing the peace.

Neighbor unhesitatingly allowed me to enter his back yard and go to the chain link fence to shoot the above video.

Ten days later, on December 23, this…our neighbors dealt with this…(video below)…from the public street…

Not every neighbor subjected to the loud noise is a Christian. To disrespect someone else’s peace has a line. Does a religious group get a neighborhood exemption? Week after week, month after month?

Today’s audio and visual aids (videos) support the context.

Being well prepared creates a calm and confidence that every Pastor (even the ones preaching the Gospel according to Walt) needs to walk with.

To be continued…
