can I ever fill the coffin?
Hoping this will be the last thing I need to stuff into the coffin so I can nail the lid on this thing and bury it.... this is probably why people write their memoirs when they get to be my age... to kind of get it all off their chests... discharge that thing... put it wherever it needs to go... and it's done with... especially if it is dead... then coffins are good...
In my case... the best place is a coffin... because it is all death.... dead things need to go in a coffin...then get burned up or buried.... all of Philip's horrors certainly do need to go there... I really went way past any of the normal religious "keep the folks busy in the system" stuff... it was even worse if you were one of my congregational leaders that I met with every week... besides that one you could also go to the "all the leaders" meeting every week... and disciple all your home group leaders... attend their home meeting as well as attend mine... also every week! Then on Sundays you could meet with Philip in the "meeting before the meeting"...
Of course you had to work in little things like a full time job...so you could pay your tithes... also spend some quality time with your wife... and your kids... oh... yeah... and don't worry about dinner... we'll serve something at the meeting...
I think there is still room in the coffin for this one too... if you were so fortunate to actually be one of the men I was personally discipling... this gave you the opportunity to also fill in the weekly accountability calendar I had printed up for you.. where you wrote down everything you did and when you did it... so you could be held accountable for the things you did... as well as all the things you didn't did... 
I think that's enough... let's put the lid on this and get some nails... Philip's perfect religious system needs to get cremated soon... maybe I can put in the final nail next time...
