God has been, as I asked Him to do, breaking my heart for what breaks His. What moves Him to show love, grace and compassion to me and the rest of the world… how can I do the same?
How can I live as Jesus lived? When I see pain and suffering that I do [...]

If I only…

Matthew 9:18-22
18While he was saying this, a ruler came and knelt before him and said, “My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live.” 19Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples.
20Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve [...]

William said this in a comment
Obama is… a kind of secular god-as-government messiah.
I was listening to James MacDonald’s Walk in the Word from a day or two ago. He was talking about an exchange he had with John Piper at a conference. Piper talked about being a Calvinist. MacDonald took issue with that word. In [...]
The Path to Purpose

Pastor Pete challenged us on Sunday to answer the following questions. I scribbled some answers in my journal during the sermon (sorry!) but want to expound on them here. These are my answers for this season of my life. 2 years ago, they were probably radically different… 2 years from now, they may be different, [...]
Sharon asks, I answer

Sharon Cobb asked about Ephesians 5:22-23 over at Kat’s blog. This is much better understood when you expand the passage to include 25-32.
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is [...]
I follow… therefore I lead

Several weeks ago, God burdened my heart to start a small group. This was a few weeks before the announcement of the upcoming Community Group Fair (Sept 14th and 21st) at Crosspoint. I prayed, I sought counsel from my friends and Ryan who oversees small groups. There were two ideas: one [...]
Not Watching… I’m not watching!

They can’t make me. I am going to do my best to avoid any and all Olympic coverage (OK, I did look at some of the fashion high and low lights from the Opening Ceremonies). I went and brought down a thread on everyone’s favorite events at Pastor Pete’s blog. I want [...]
Birthday Wish

Sunday was my birthday.
We had an all-worship service along with communion at church. There was time for personal reflection at the end of service and here is what I scribbled in my journal:
What is it about birthdays and New Year’s that cause us to face our live anew… to look at where we’ve been [...]
Dancing to a Spiritual Lesson
Posted in Christianity, Dance, Faith, tagged Dance, faith, life on June 8, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
If you know me at all, I’m obsessed with dancing. Right after being faithful to God, it’s what I breathe for. So, being away for the last six months has been a really big downer. I’d miss it, then talk myself into not missing ‘I can live with out it.’ Then [...]
Dead Horses Shouldn’t Move
Posted in Faith, tagged blogging, grace on May 31, 2008 | 2 Comments »
But sometimes they aren’t dead yet. Then again, it’s not feeling much better either.
A tempest in a teapot is getting stirred up over something that happened to me a year and a half ago. Actually, it wasn’t directly related to me. It was about Sharon’s SATC review, comments by Wintermute, and Kat’s reaction [...]
