He then goes onto explains why Norm’s David Letterman impression is his favorite Norm character work from SNL. “Ya got any gum?!?” You may need some for this episode. “Errrrr – ya enjoy the shrimp???” ~ Dave (Norm)

I Tripped and Fell, Matt Alspaugh, February 24, 2008
Sometimes our efforts at keeping our lives in balance are not enough. With a chance misstep, the world tilts, and we take a tumble. Can we fall with grace, or do we resist the inevitable outcome? Can we recover, and how? Who is there to help us, and can we accept that help?

Joy in Integrity, Matt Alspaugh, Hallman Ministerial Intern, November 25, 2007
In a quest for efficiency, order and even survival, we compartmentalize our lives, separating work from family, from church, from leisure. We know that some boundaries are necessary, but when do we go too far? What is the spiritual cost to such dis-integration?
