The great poop attack of 2003
Day 3 of the Michael Smalley Comedy Hour (not really an hour)
It was possibly 2003, honestly I can’t remember the year, but that’s not important. Today I share one of the most embarrassing moments of my life, and again it was at the diabolical hands of my older brother.
You won’t believe this story, but every detail is true!
But today isn’t just about my personal shame. The corona virus has caused a lot of anxiety and fear for many of you. So I’m going to give some simple tips on dealing with the angst this pandemic is causing.

Day 2 of the Michael Smalley Comedy Hour
Welcommen to The Michael Smalley Comedy Hour. Because I’m impulsive and slightly unorganized, I only came up with this show idea on Sunday….which means I didn’t put a lot of thought into it. But for day two, I’ve got something special planned. Each day I’m going to give fun tips for your family during home quarantine. One tip will be legit and the other will be messed up, you’ll have to figure out which is which.
Of course I will share a weird, funny or messed up story from my life that will be true, or will it? At the end of my story you can comment on whether or not you think it’s true or fake news…I mean a fake story.

Karl Vaters - that small church guy
Karl and I met in Guatemala with Compassion International. That's enough said! You don't want to miss this interview. He knows things about me because I overshared on the trip!
Karl’s heart is to help pastors of small churches (up to 90 percent of us) find the resources to lead well, and to capitalize on the unique advantages that come with pastoring a small church – something virtually every pastor will spend at least some of their ministry years doing. He also believes that big and small churches can and should work together more often – to the benefit and blessing of everyone.
Karl has been in pastoral ministry for over 30 years. He is the teaching pastor of Cornerstone Christian Fellowship, a healthy small church in Orange County, California, where he has ministered for over 25 years with his wife, Shelley.

FLQ - hurling mud and other messy stuff

What do you do when you’ve asked for a timeout, yet your spouse keeps hurling mud and refuses to stop after repeated requests? How do you address the weight of your spouse? How long does it take to transition from bad fighting to healthy fighting?

- Can asking back to back questions cause defensiveness in a seemingly innocent conversation?
- Of course, but really depends on your tone and context of the conversation.
Anything can turn someone defensive, fairly or unfairly.
- Of course, but really depends on your tone and context of the conversation.
- Should someone stay in a marriage with an asshole who is not going to change?
