Q: What are you doing? A: I'm throwing away or giving away items that I either don't need or worse, items I never needed. Q: Will you ever run out? A: Probably not but I do hope to have a difficult time making decisions about what to throw out. Q: Are you really a Lutheran? A: Yes. LCMS. Q: What would you say to convince me to become a Lutheran? A: Our synod president, Matthew Harrison, has a really great mustache. We welcome all facial hairstyles. Q: What about women? Are you going to make a joke about women and porkchop sideburns? A: No. When men, especially fathers, attend church, women and children follow. Q: Is there anything else you'd like us to know about you or what you're doing? A: To quote The Master, "Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head."
