The Bethel Rebel: Life according to Johnny Ginsberg

I think serving at Infuse tonight will be very fun. If you’re a guy, and you live in the Twin Cities area, and you would like to get together with other guys, come to Eaglebrook-White Bear for Infuse. We start at 7 pm. Lower Worship Center. We’re studying the Life of Jesus via the gospel [...]

I got to visit with the guy I’ve known for so long, I forgot when I first met him on Sunday. Brian and his two kids, Andy and Britney, live on the fringe of the cities. (Brian’s wife was at school.) It was so cool getting to see Brian, Andy, and Britney for the second [...]

Hello. I hope this finds you all well. Today I imagine I will have a manic monday. Manic for me being an intense state of being with very little human contact. It’s rather discomforting, but then, it could actually be worse. I could be in the hospital having major human contact with the staff, I [...]

Sorry everybody, somehow the SQL username got deleted. I have no idea how, it just wasn’t there anymore. The username was re-added and things are back online again. Thanks for your patience.

Pastor Bob’s messsage at Eaglebrook tonight was an oldie, a goodie, and one I needed to hear yet again. Dang it, I hate to admit it to myself, but he’s right. Pastor Bob is saying we need to be free from debt. Well, I’m wanting that freedom…hence I’m trying like **** to sell this townhome, [...]

I’m thinking of the robot “Number Five”, otherwise known as “Johnny Five” in the “Short Circuit” movies. A friend at volleyball calls me that when he sees me. He had no idea that he was actually tagging me with a name that symbolizes one of my struggles so truly. The poor boy, Johnny Five, after [...]

If you want, email address for the site is webmaster@thebethelrebel.com and I would be happy to give you the address [...]

needs some work. Scott’s going to kill me for all the money I’ve spent on Amex this month. Most were needed for one reason or another, but a few were “optionals.” At least I know Scott is forgiving, and that I did save some cash and put some in the church, like a good ChristFollower [...]

Hey folks, I hope this finds you all well, happy, and content with your lives. Looks like I got some kind of cold after all. Probably caught it from someone who shall remain nameless, but I hope this individual will personally feel better so s/he can do the job without any more complications. Other than [...]

Nurse(s) came. Apparently I don’t need to go in sooner for the nosebleed issue, but a humidifier was strongly encouraged. I just need to have lunch as usual at whatever is closest to 12 pm, and then I can do whatever until Pure Desire tonight. Probably go to my favorite coffee spot. I’ve been asked [...]
