On the recommendation of a friend, I read this book. In "God and the Gay Christian", Matthew Vines synthesizes arguments from a variety of sources to put forward a biblical case in support of monogamous, loving, same-sex relationships. Having read the book, I can sympathize with Vines' struggles and he had a good writing style, but I wasn't convinced. I don't believe that to alleviate our guilt we should try to justify our sins. Vines throws logic and biblical context out the window. If this is his attempt at exegesis, I don't want to see his eisegesis.

Haha, I'm a Canadian and I prefer Starbucks 
I get far too excited every fall when pumpkin spice lattes are available. Tim Hortons does have good coffee though.

I like their iced tea, lol. I did have an extra caffeinated morning blend from there one time that was good and it worked. I'm not a big coffee drinker but every now and then I want some either French Vanilla or black. I like cappuccino but I don't like those flavored creamers. I'm weird.
on my drive to work, i was remembering my senior year in high school. dad lost his job. i remember being angry with God because i was about to graduate from high school, and dad wasn't working.
i applied for a nice scholarship, but i knew from the beginning competition was tough. i turned in the application in february. in may, i got a letter saying i was a semi-finalist. i worked that summer to save up money. i honestly didn't know how i was going to pay for college. dad was still unemployed. one summer day, while i was at work, i called him to say i wanted chicken for lunch (after work). turned out, right before i called, he was outside with the dog. she found $20 in the lawn. we had lunch money
i kept planning to move to school even though i didn't have enough money. early august, i got a letter in the mail saying i was a finalist for the scholarship i applied for in february. i was relieved to know that i had help for my first year. 2nd year, we will figure it out. during my 1st semester, all the finalist for the scholarship were invited to a conference in L.A. with all expenses paid, so i went! lol. there i found out my scholarship could be renewed up to 5 yrs. my college education is paid for.
as i was thinking about all this during my drive, i looked at my rearview mirror. i saw the sunrise.
