The Bethel Rebel: Life according to Johnny Ginsberg

I was privileged to attend the Baptism service at EBC WBL today and watch a friend get baptised. I had promised him I would be there, and I kept that promise. I’m very happy when somebody gets baptised and honors God with his/her obeidience to Christ. Two showings today. I need to remind these realtors [...]

Pastor Bob spoke about marriage tonight. What it boils down to is this: in order to be married, you must know how to communicate, honor your spouse, and make a commitment to your spouse forever. I so have a hard time accepting this message. It’s almost seeming that I don’t have the hope of marriage. [...]

Steve Duede put on a concert last night at EBC-Lino. He was so awesome. The music was fabulous, and people were having fun. I got to sit next to Buege Bugs and get my Buege fix. Then after hanging around afterward, it was time to go home, but my heart was satisfied and glad. Father, [...]

My day was great at VA. After talking to Lockwood (which can be helpful, but was a chore today), and then squaring things away with the psych nurse, I officially joined the Escort Service as a Volunteer at VA. I met some great people who were great to work with, and it was so fun [...]

I’m awake at 0200 (2 AM to you civvies) and I’m thinking why should I bother going back to bed when I need to get crusing in a couple of hours anyway. So, after a hot shower (gonna feel good), shave, and other necessities of personal hygiene, I will be heading to VAMC for the [...]

I didn’t know Don Lindahl well, but I know he was the guy that signed my letter of admission to Bethel. At his funeral service, his family and friends gave testimony that Don was a man who realized that “boys will be boys”. But he was very manly in God’s eyes. I don’t describe him [...]

My interview at VAMC for volunteering went well. I think I got the job in Escort. Hooah! to God. Just waiting until my nurse comes to take care of meds setup and to make sure I’m still alive. Unfortunately, another person has died, and this guy is the father of one of my small group [...]

I just want to say Happy Easter to all. This is an excellent time to remember that Jesus rose again from the grave after death. I hope a lot more of you will accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Peace out.

Since obviously I have so much time on my hands, I think I will have to apply it to my schooling. I bought two books on Taekwondo, so I can start learning proper techniques once again, and get my body into some kind of shape. I’m amazed at how the Taekwondo Martial art has survived [...]

Not much going on these days. One more Infuse, then it’s the summer sessions. I will be applying to volunteer at VAMC. It seems to make sense to do something to burn time on Mondays when I have my weekly checkups and stuff. I have an appointment to talk with Voluntary Services at 0900 on [...]
