On the Lighter Side …
Big Name Showdown by Drew Dyck, Contributing Editor, CT Pastors
We named my son Athanasius after the 4th Century Church Father. It was a strategic choice. We figured we could use it for leverage when he wasn’t behaving. “The first Athanasius faced down four Roman Emperors and you can’t even clean one bedroom!” Or, “At 25 years old, Athanasius stood up at the Council of Nicaea, argued for the divinity of Christ, changing the course of church history. Why are you still living in our basement?!”
Hopefully it won’t come to that, but it feels good knowing I have those lines at my disposal if it does.
Well, it seems his big name is already going to his head. Last weekend, I overheard a heated argument between him and his little sister. At one point he shouted at her, “You need to listen to ME! I was named after a very important Christian!”
That’s when I stepped in. Um, bud, are you sure you want to play that card? On your sister … Mary?
