What you do in your house is worth as much as if you did it up in heaven for our Lord God. We should accustom ourselves to think of our position and work as sacred and well-pleasing to God, not on account of the position and work, but on account of the word and faith from which the obedience and the work flow. ~ Martin Luther

The moment of truth....Matt opens his SIGNED Eric Sloane book. This picture didn't capture the look that happened seconds after.  Posted by Hello

if matt keeps that beard past spring, into summer, i might just grant that he may have, finally, become a man.

my money says he wusses out and shaves to stop his wife's nagging.

unless, perhaps, this truly is a... renaissance!

Not you too! I’ve gotten enough jabbing to last a lifetime (already!) by the o&o Scott Terry.

As for the beard thing….the way I see it is the only options are for him to
1)Shave for his wife because I “nag” him OR
2)Not shave for his friends (because they torment him and nag him when he is clean-shaven.)

So-you see…you guys are just as bad of naggers as I am. As a matter of fact, before he knew you guys, he was perfectly CONTENT to have a beard in winter and a NORMAL face in summer!
Whatever he decides, he decides based on outside forces. And I will tell you what-If he decides to follow you guys…I will know where I rank.

Ah, nothing like some good chatter on beards. In pagan circles one can ask as a diversion,'so how 'bout those Mets?'. But in reformed everything under the Lordship of Christ circles, one can ask, 'so how 'bout Matt's beard?'. They'll be plenty of talk and plenty of beer to for everyone.

NORMAL = having been scraped by a sharp blade.

If Matt decides that this is a NORMAL face, then may his nether regions, and all of his major internal organs be subjected to this same NORMAL treatment.

I wonder what your response would have been had I not made a humorous jab at normal. Hmmmmm.....
