The Book - First Edition
Welcome!
First and foremost, I want to thank everyone who contributed to the success of "You Know You're a Potter's House Kid When...". I am so excited to tell you that the book sold out in two days! This was more than even I had hoped or imagined.
Because of this, I am planning a second edition that will hopefully be available in July; of course, I will need everyone's help AGAIN!
Now that we have our creative juices flowing, I hope to inspire you to send in new ideas. I would like to add two new sections: "You Know You're a Pastor's Kid When..." and "You Know You're a Missionary Kid When...". (As well as new additions to existing chapters.)
(Just click on the 'comments' link, share your ideas, and please put your name and where you're from or you will be entered as anonymous.)
That said...please feel free to post new ideas or suggestions under so we can all make this book an even bigger success!

ReplyDeleteyou've sat through more city council meetings than your highschool government teacher has.
ReplyDeleteyou know how to apply for a sound permit and most kids don't know what one is
your the look out for the cops when your out there street preaching.
when as a kid your barbies and ken dolls get sent out during makeshift conferences.
When Pastor Mitchelle is a super hero with awesome super powers and Pastor Scott Lamb is his trusty sidekick!

when your the only girl in the whole school who doesnt have a boyfriend and the only one in high school who still gets spanked by your parents!!!!!
ReplyDeleteyou are only three and you said, "mom, you can live another day!" (after biting a piece of bread your mom serve you)p.s.if you have watched "Late One Night" millions of times during movie outreach,you will know exactly which line it was.
ReplyDeleteyou actually wonder why the Pastor and mom in "Lay it Down" are so close and always together coming out of the house alone.
ReplyDeleteyou know who Barry Barry and Raw Reese are.
ReplyDeleteYou know you're a pastor's kid when at the age of five you get sent to the principle's office for telling a fellow classmate they were going to hell for telling a lie.
ReplyDeleteYou know you're a potter's house kid when at the age of five you are rebuking demons out of other students during recess because they aren't " acting like a christian".
ReplyDelete...you were 4-5yrs old you raised your hand at every alter call.
ReplyDelete...You already know that your week nights are full- Sun.: Church, Mon.: movie outreach, Tues.: street preaching, Wed.: Church, Thurs.: band/drama practice, Fri.: Bible Study, Sat.: outreach and music scene.
...you've fallen asleep between the rows during a church service or a music scene.
...you know that a missionary outreach does not consist of building a house in a third world country.
...you see your own kids doing all of the things you did as a PHK.
...as a child you saved every penny to put it in the offering.
...as you look back you are so grateful to be raised as a PHK and have no regrets about it!!!
You woke up after a service, crawled out from under the pew, looked around and realized that your parents accidently left you at the church again!

Your first kiss is on your wedding day.
ReplyDeleteYou met your future spouse at conference.
Your so sick that you are throwing up but your parents just hand you a ice cream bucket and blanket and take you to church anyway.
ReplyDeleteWhen your favorite childhood game was to re-enact the crucifixion or church services.
When all the little girls cried if they couldnt be Mary in the annual Christmas play and all the little boys would cry if they had to be Joseph.
When you smell a Bible and it reminds you of the smell of your Pastor.
you're celebrating holidays at the lake, and it's not just for fun, but because your church is going to baptise people there
ReplyDeleteThere's always been Saturday morning outreach.
ReplyDeleteThere's always been morning prayer.
There's never been a cross in or on the building.
There's always been a map in the foyer.
Your church has always had a 3 day fast before conference.
you quit your first job because you don't want to miss Prescotts youth music scene.
ReplyDeleteyou save your first kiss for your wedding day.
they ask you in class what you want to be when you grow up and you respond with.."I want to be a Pastors wife" and you are only 5.
You think watching conference video sermons with your friends is FUN!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou pass on sermon cds to other friends in the fellowship cause you know they would enjoy listening to them...
Kids from school wonder how you came to have so many friends that live in other countries.
