Dwayne-isms

June 16th, 2006 | Funny, Personal | Syndicate Content

Some new words via Pastor Dwayne Roberts:

  • Dourney - A Journey to the Depths
  • Buke - a.k.a. book
  • Stunder - To study in order to understand
  • Orientated - a.k.a. oriented
  • Disorientated - a.k.a. disoriented
  • Encrouchly - To hide like a tiger from within the bowels of the jungle foliage
  • Relevization - To have revelation and a realization at the same time
  • Hozer - The new author of Knowledge of the Holy
  • Prevade - To prevail and invade: Simultaneously.

[I know Dwayne personally. I see him every day and travel with him every month. I asked his permission to put these up here. He is a great, fun-loving guy and we all stumble over our words when we preach. Just some more than others.]

    “Orientated” and “Disorientated” are the British ways of saying “oriented” and “disoriented.” Dwayne was a missionary in Eastern Europe for 10 years, and I expect he picked it up there.

    I just laughed my face off. Where did you get “to hide like a tiger from within the bowels of the jungle foliage”? I nearly lost it on that one.

    Dwayne really is a great guy and preacher, and it’s these kinds of things that just make me like him more. Maybe that’s because it makes him more real… Or maybe it’s just that at times, like Josh, I too laugh my face off.
