Overflowing Love
http://calebgerdes.blogspot.com/2010/03/article-for-uwec-spectator-prostitution.html
Tuesday, March 9, 2010. Article for the UWEC Spectator. Prostitution vs. Prisoner. 8220;The world’s oldest occupation” is being called into question. Where do you stand? What does it mean to be a prostitute, historically and now? What exactly is prostitution? And who in the world would think that a prostitute is a prisoner? The “prison” of prostitution is highly debated. It is subjugated to the whims of moral relativism. A fancy term, eh? That is the question. This may sound Marxist, but I think that pol...

Overflowing Love: March 2010

Saturday, March 20, 2010. The Old Green Phone (draft 2). The old green phone, a gift from the dead old man, rings among a pile of unopened letters and random notebooks along with a pile of select books. The phone rings again, disturbing the pile of letters slightly. 8220;No, I was awake. I’m just tired.”. He leans his head against the desk and closes his eyes as he listens to the voice on the line. His left hand rubs the four-inch scar on the inside of his right elbow. Listen. That dog was never just...

Overflowing Love: February 2010
http://calebgerdes.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 10, 2010. There are things in this world not seen and things in this not wanting to be seen. What happens when we allow God to turn our world upside down? What will we see? Will the actual people we are fall out of the masks and the bodies we hold onto to float in a strange progression to our actual feet? Will we be able to see people struggling to let go of their confused masks and bodies? Will we be able to help them be free of the emptiness of an incomplete existence? I've seen dem...

Saturday, March 6, 2010. A response to Matt on Slavery in the Bible. This is a work in progress, just spent some time and would love some feedback.

Overflowing Love: May 2008

Tuesday, May 20, 2008. Prayer to be defined. Posted by Caleb Gerdes. Sunday, May 18, 2008. Posted by Caleb Gerdes. Saturday, May 17, 2008. Cracks at my feet draw my eyes. Chalk develops my art, creating life or death? Sidewalks lead to places I hate yet places I crave. There are people that travel as I do, with their feet following eyes that follow cracks. Chalk fights the boundaries that bind it within its own creation. It leads men and children to individual worlds. Everyone follows, someone cries out.

Monday, January 11, 2010. ODW - One Days Wages. They do not anymore. There are a few things that have driven these scum covered desires for the chaos all duress creates, duress in my experience can be created by the person under it. I have been freed! One Days Wages (ODW). This is a cool place to cause great change. There are a lot of organizations out there combating poverty and I highly recommend ODW. The founders are Eugene and Minhee Cho. They have decided to donate one years wages, a...Check out the...
