Nathan R. Hale

hello

  • Sunday afternoon jams with my new little practice amp!

  • Thankfuk to RNAtreasures for this great find at a fair price. Perfect little pipe for walking the dog, reading, and on the go. The deep bend in the stem means cleaning is not quite as simple as my straight pipes, but it’s a worthy trade for portability and clenchability

  • Pretty stoked to give this new pocket pipe from RNAtreasures a go on my evening walk tonight. I imagine I’ll load it it up with some BLWB.

  • The Sacred Enneagram

  • Grateful to be led in worship each Sunday by my wife Amber.

  • Tomorrow’s sermon is on submitting to the government. Total word count: 1776. Coincidence? You decide.

  • A little lick I came up with years ago to warm up the fingers. Kinda challenging for me these days as I’m pretty rusty.

  • I’ve been out of the…loop…(see what I did there) on audio production for a long time. I’m super impressed with what is now possible for free in-browser via BandLab. Absolutely incredible. Add to this that the company is literally giving Cakewalk (the first DAW I ever used)—a pro-level app—away for free and my mind is blown.

    At the same time, you’ve got to wonder about the business model…and if you are becoming the product a la Facebook/Google.

  • The church is learning to suffer, to be patient, to be creative, to bear with one another in this time so that when we can gather again in the fullest expression of our corporate identity and vocation, we will be more welcoming, humble, grateful, loving, trusting.

    The practices we are currently engaged in and the way we are “doing church” have their rightful place in our current reality, and are certainly being used by God to give us grace. Yet, they are a preparation, not a replacement, for the fullness of the embodied & gathered life of the Church.
