    • Oh, another thing that irritates me are shopping buggys (I know they are called carts, but I’m from Alabama and we called them buggys).  That is the shopping buggys that are left all over the Wal-Mart parking lot.  Sometimes there is a buggy drop-off within 10 feet of where the buggy was left.  Have we become so lazy and self centered that we can’t even push our buggy 10 feet to a drop-off so other people’s cars don’t get dinged and the buggy boy doesn’t have to do a marathon to collect them?  No wonder we can’t even walk accross the street to witness to our neighbors.

    •     Hey there Greg!  I watch The Gospel Journey and I think you’re a great speaker.  My youth group is going to Charolette to see you speak and I am so heart broken that I can’t come. Being a teen I must listen to my parents but I want to let you know I here you! You are the best speaker!  We are Bethany Baptist church and I wish you the best in your speaking.  much christian luv

    • I hate trash on the side of the road.  To me it is a symbol of the loss of responsibility in our culture.  If I had one wish… I would wish that one day a year that every piece of trash not disposed of properly would sick to the person that did the deed.  Alot of people would be come walking trash balls! he he

    • What irrittes me is adults in our congregation who still view our youth ministry as an annoyance and not a real ministry even though over 50 youth have given their lives to the Lord in the last 3 years.  Meanwhile, the church has only baptized 1 person in that time.

    • I am irritated by stupid Christians and Christian Universities that have been teaching the same recycled nonsense for 40 years. I am irritated by denominations that have decided for themselves that their way is correct and condemn others for not believing the same way. ie: prosperity, tongues, etc etc….I am irritated by parents who are too lazy to see the value of what great things that God is doing through my church and the youth group that God has placed my my care. I am irritated by people on my former college’s MySpace forum bickering back and forth instead of agreeing to disagree and focusing on more important things like loving people. And most of all, I am irritated by ME. My sin, my attitude and my "junk" disgust me and I am so incredibly deserving of hell. I thank my GOD that I am covered by His Grace.

    • I am irritated by a congregations that complain about the what the church is doing but refuse to help change it.  I’m irritated by people who will always ask for help but never offer it.  Mostly I am irritated by myself because I am one of those youth leaders who is always trying to make things fun for the youth and not teaching the truth about Christ.  I know that Christ is my savior and the only way that I will ever see the glories of heaven but I have been unable to share that with others.  I am having a youth gathering tonight and I would like to ask for prayers to help me share what I have on my heart to the youth that will be attending.  It is only through the strength that we receive from God that we can share our faith and bring others to Christ!

    •                              Hey Greg.  I know what you mean.  My big sis latley only talks about her boyfriend all of the time.  It bugs the crap out of me.  I just don’t know how to handle it.  I wish I could talk to you about it but I also know that you are very busy and that you are going to Charolette soon.  I wish you the best there.  Do you think Dare 2 share ministries could give me any advice.  Do you have a rant about that?  That would be much appreciated!                      much luv,                        Sammi

    • One of the things that really get under my skin are those who are in youth ministry that use youth ministry as a stepping stone to the pastorate.  It takes everything in me to keep from letting these "youth ministers" have it.  Youth Ministry is a true calling.  If you believe you are called to be a pastor then do that and not youth ministry!

    • one of my big irritants is when i am a church retreat and we are supposed to be doing our one on one time with God and people decide they are "too cool" for it and go and do something else or are just talking and not spending time with God.  It frustrates me mainly cause i am trying to do my devos, but they aren’t and it is distracting me from my time with God. i hope that doesn’t happen this weekend as much!

    • What irritates me to no end? Knowing that God wants you to do something but there is always that certain obstacle in the way that holds you back. It could be not being able to find a ride to a certain place, You have absolutely no idea how to get started, and what really gets under my skin, every christian around you thinks you are to young or to inexperienced to be able to get up in front of a church at age 16 and preach in front of a church when you know that if you did something like that every week then you would be doing something amazing for God. I mean is it bad that I want to get up in front of a crowd and be able to spread Jesus the way that HE tells me to. Please pray for me that I will be given more opportunities to speak in front of crowds and that the people around me wont think I am to young cause you know what God does not view age as an obstacle and If you have the right heart and mind for HIM great things will happen.

    •                             Greg,                 What irritates me is when there asre so many obstacles in me trying to share my faith. I mean, i went to the gameday confrence in denver, and God totally put me on fire to share my faith with people. I just haven’t had the opportunity.                                                       Other Irritating things: 1.Freaky rapstars (i.e. JaRule, Flava Flay) 2. Stuffy noses that won’t go away 3. Headaches that won’t go away 4. Hurts that won’t go away Hey, good thing none of these will bug me in Heaven, huh?
