Wow! I just had a fascinating experience on my walk this morning. About a block before I got to where “my” deer normally grazes, and where we commune each morning, I happened to be looking towards a vacant lot. My eyes spied movement. At least 7 deer had heard me walking and were running offContinue reading “Update on the Walking”

What’s the buzz… tell me what’s happening!
My church has been abuzz, of late, about “The Homeless Problem”. Many don’t want them hanging around our property. We feed them on Sunday mornings, and to many in our congregation that’s too much. Let’s keep them away the rest of the week! They scare us. I’m committed to helping our homeless. I am aContinue reading “What’s the buzz… tell me what’s happening!”
Walking
Have I mentioned here that I’ve taken up the sport of walking? Well, I have. I don’t know a lot about addiction. I’m lucky in that vein… I’ve never had a problem with alcohol… IF I have a drink, I have A drink… maybe 2. It’s been nearly a decade since I’ve been drunk. AndContinue reading “Walking”
I’m Back… maybe
(See correction about Lake Moraine below. 8/4/05) Well, I’m just finally getting settled back in to the hum-drum of daily living after a 10 day vacation… sort of. Scott & I left on July 21 for a two-pronged vacation. For the first 5 days, we visited beautiful Calgary, Alberta, Canada. This was a blast! OurContinue reading “I’m Back… maybe”
The Tramp
Before I begin this blog, I think a definition or two is in order. And before the definition, an apology to “The Fellow Traveller”. I just two minutes ago sent you an email explaining why it was unlikely I’d be bloggin any time soon. And Voila! Out of the clear blue, inspiration…. such as itContinue reading “The Tramp”
Emergent/Postmodern, eh?
Okay… I can buy MOST of what this survey/quiz says about me. But 64% Roman Catholic? Ewww. Must I be insulted by anonymous Quizsters? 😉 And, that the quiz indicates I’m 4% fundamentalist… I guess, ok. I can see that. In fact I’d a thunk it was higher.
Oh, what the hell….
You scored as Emergent/Postmodern. You are Emergent/Postmodern in your theology. You feel alienated from older forms of church, you don’t think they connect to modern culture very well. No one knows the whole truth about God, and we have much to learn from each other, and so learning takes place in dialogue. Evangelism should takeContinue reading “Oh, what the hell….”
Baboons and Cheetahs
It’s funny how the strangest things can get my attention and lead me off in a direction that may have nothing to do with anything. Today that happened. I was reviewing my Spam folder prior to emptying it. Near the top was one with the subject line “We need people BAD!” (It was from “ResearchContinue reading “Baboons and Cheetahs”
It only takes a spark…
Gosh! It’s been nearly 3 weeks since I posted last. I feel bad about that, in a way, but not really. My blog serves as an outlet for ME to write when I feel the need to, or when I feel led to. The day it becomes a burden is the day I close itContinue reading “It only takes a spark…”
Continuing on…
What can we know (or think we know) about the nature of God? A correlative question would necessarily be (in light of my foregoing discussion) Can we accept the following hypothesis: “God is immutable, human comprehension of the nature of God is not”? This is how I ended my last post over 2 weeks ago.Continue reading “Continuing on…”
