Our Daily Beard



Men.
Hairy. Hoary. Image Bearers of God.
Event.
A Happening that must be participated in by Men. It's Epic.

This Friday night we kick off our second EPIC Men's Event, and if you are a man, then I expect you to be there. I am growing my beard as a walking Billboard for this event. A dear sister at Overlake said to me last Sunday, "I will pay you not to grow a beard." To which I replied, "Don't pay ME. Just get your husband to Epic." So really, I guess, the beard is a form of spiritual blackmail.

I know the man-growth is unattractive. I know how my wife feels about it's scratchy-ness. I'm only doing this so that you'll sign up for EPIC. Sign up. Now.

Man, I for permission from my doctor to grow a beard out for a month (remember, when you work for the Disney, you can't have facial hair) and I LOVED it. Other people were clearly in the love it/hate it camp.

Hope all is well up North!
