I'm the lead pastor of a great and very unconventional church - Church At The Movies, with campuses in Ronkonkoma and Mastic, NY - and I love doing what I do. We have hundreds of fellow radicals in our congregations who, like me, are committed to doing church for the unchurched. Totally apart from my church involvement, I work a few hours a week as a Weight Loss Consultant for Weight Watchers, which I thoroughly enjoy.

INTO EVERY LIFE ...

... A LITTLE RAIN MUST FALL!
I know it's a holiday weekend and there's the unmistakable aroma of a million burgers being burned at family barbecues all around the neighborhood, but what gall to close my gym at 2.00pm so that the staff could go eat charred beef.

I arrived just in time to have them lock the doors in my face and was left with a tough choice. It was the Mets game or exercise - and my favorite baseball team lost. (Not the game of course, they crushed the Marlins). Walking on the road is a bit more punishing on the legs than using a treadmill with basic shock absorbers, but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

It was a great day for it - sunshine, clear skies and 80.

So though I had to sacrifice watching the ball game, I managed a basic workout - and it's still a great day.

Priorities - that's the word!
