What God?: Choices
http://ghprovocations.blogspot.com/2007/05/choices.html
Life and Identity with the One Who Calls Us. Thursday, May 10, 2007. You might well conclude, then, that the natural condition of man is an utter lack of freedom, the absence of real, voluntary personal choices—or, put another way, that any sense of freedom exists only in ignorance. A blueprint for personal change. And the scope of the alternatives you entertain and the particular choices you make also define your freedom, don’t they? So, even if you are not open to the freedom of the One who calls you, ...

What God?: The Arts
http://ghprovocations.blogspot.com/2008/05/arts.html
Life and Identity with the One Who Calls Us. Thursday, May 10, 2007. So much of all deistic worship and communication stands on the gifting of the arts for expression and transcendent understanding. To the extent that music, drama, poetry and prose, paintings, icons or sculptures are media used to make more meaningful our apprehension or worship of God, to the extent they mediate our understanding of His identity, His message or His work, they are truly the highest expression of the arts. Love Is No Game.

Identity's Complaint: Prefatory Comments
http://ghcomplaint.blogspot.com/2008/04/prefatory-comments.html
Monday, April 14, 2008. I became more conservative through my middle years. As a former Marine, tax lawyer, corporate executive and church elder, I just seemed to move in that direction. But a return to graduate school at Harvard at age 54, and an extraordinary corner turned in my prayer and spiritual life, challenged and changed my sense of identity, purpose and direction. Out of the Box. They are titled,. An apt description of the collection of pieces included here. The tone of some is edgier and m...

Identity's Complaint: Political Boxes
http://ghcomplaint.blogspot.com/2008/04/political-boxes.html
Monday, April 14, 2008. When and how did it come to this? I suppose it just evolved with the increasing polarization: more divisive people, more intolerant people. They don’t want to listen to me, not really. And they don’t want to include me, either. They just want my vote and the right to claim mandate for imposing their agenda on me.

What God?: Humility
http://ghprovocations.blogspot.com/2007/05/humulity.html
Life and Identity with the One Who Calls Us. Thursday, May 10, 2007. In the wonder of it all, borrowed words flow out desperately trying, but impotent, to convey understanding or feeling of this new experience and understanding. It is as though Christ becomes more a shared experience and identity. His life and teachings revealed in the Gospels become less something you know about, reflect on or imagine, and somehow more a part of your experience, expressed character and feelings.
