By the way...I am now officially a member of PAMIC (People against massaging in church)
Yes, last week I sat behind a woman who INCESSANTLY massaged her husband's neck (don't you just WISH you knew who it was? lol)
and it really was terribly distracting. Little circles. Big circles, Kneading, stroking. The tickle, the hair pull. PUHleeze already. Gosh, can you imagine if there were a bunch of undisciplined KIDS massaging each other while talking/crying/sniffling/whining...man, it's enough to make a die-hard CC goer lose their mind...
So: You won't find ME distracting YOU by massaging my husband's neck. No siree.
I am AGIN' the church massage. I am not going to distract you from God's Word and the titillating message by touching my husband or tending to my children. Nope. Far be it from POWERFUL me to distract LACK OF FOCUS you from the massage- I mean message set before you.
But I think the real point is I don't think either of these things really distracted everyone so much until the rule got made. I never noticed others or myself massaging their DH's until I read about PAMIC. I never was distracted by kids...well, okay, that's a lie but the POINT is my mind never had the thought there should be a rule to keep them OUT because of it.
I am more peeved by the fact that I myself am now distracted by it. I used to preach "get your focus straight!" and now I myself have succumbed. Weak. Very, very weak.
Ah...The Power of Suggestion...now that's a message one could learn something from!
Oh and by the way? You won't see me sitting behind them again.

we were all together for Christmas Eve service. There was lots of music and the kids did a skit... Jim gave the salvation message of course (lots of visitors). The school had control of the air and we were not able to turn it on... so there were kids all over squirming, bulletins waving back and forth, whisperings... oh my gosh!... I don't even remember the message!
Oh, you can just say it, it was Tiffany and her husband.
BTW - that was a joke, I don't even go to that church, it was only a joke! please don't be offended tiffany!
no, but just admit it, it was her wasn't it?
Okay, I admit it. I was there totally massaging my husband's neck. Just a warm up for what happened when we got home. :0)
So Calvary Chapel has couples making out during service? Do the ushers come around and spray holy water on Tiff & Ollie if it gets too heated?
For the record, it was NOT Tif and Ollie. Lol But you guys are funny!
ba-ha-ha!
funny- I have actually witnessed this sort of thing before and it is a little disturbing. Amy & Eric???
Nah, not Amy and Eric. I never have actually seen Eric and Amy in proximity to one another. Do they really co-exist? Are they really two separate people or like Superman, are they really ONE person who change back and forth? Hmmm...
