a man wearing an earring looks ridiculious, I give you that...

but looking ridiculious is NOT gender specific....

Don't you think there is a double standard here ???

I am getting into this late I know but I think there is no difference other than what is deemed acceptable by the person or the church. It is more acceptable or maybe common to see women with them than it is for a man. I would listen to both, but honestly I think earrings should stay on women only or off altogether.

My wife treats me like a Turkey--she keeps fattening me up!

Other than that I am not bad.

I am helping another Minister start a HM work near Vancouver so that is new.

Keeps me out of trouble!

Hi Sam,
Thanks for asking!
We are still at it & while I do not have any new pics, (misplaced my camera) we are still plugging away at it.

Just keep on going.

And keep on sowing.
