A pastor’s musings on fatherhood, religion, life and everything

Greetings. For those of you who are more familiar with the web, technology, grammar, the English language, etc. please forgive my bumbling attempt at a blog. As you could probably guess from the title, I am an ordained pastor in the Church of the Brethren. So who in the world is the Church of the Brethren (CoB)? If you don't know the answer, you can post a question and I'll try and reply or better yet, jump on your favorite search engine and look it up! I will also probably talk some about my denomination, my experiences as a pastor and Christianity as a whole, but my original intent was to provide a forum for dads to express their feelings. Mainly because I am about to become a father for the first time and I am a little more than frustrated about the lack of info out there for dads. And before you even start, I know there is some info out there and I've read a great deal about it and for the most part, I've found it less than helpful at best. Usually the stuff I've found has little to do with what I'm thinking or feeling and so I thought this would provide a way for me to vent. So dads, speak up! Let me know what you're thinking and feeling. Just because we can't give birth, do we not feel? Just because we do not lactate, do we not bleed?
