No, it's not a coffee - it's a place of my inner thoughts as I walk along on my spiritual journey. You're welcome to join in on the conversation. Wednesday, November 7, 2007. Wow, I never, ever thought I'd be considering using the Lectionary. I mean, that's just a tool of high church tradition, right? At least, that's what I used to think. How much more difficult for people whose living is not at least partially made by studying and interpreting the Bible? Is there a downside to this? Do you know of one?

This week's focus book(s) to read is: TITUS / PHILEMON. This letter is from Paul, a slave of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I have been sent to proclaim faith to those God has chosen and to teach them to know the truth that shows them how to live godly lives. What is a more important role than that for a preacher? 2 Individually and...

No, it's not a coffee - it's a place of my inner thoughts as I walk along on my spiritual journey. You're welcome to join in on the conversation. Wednesday, February 23, 2011. This week's focus book(s) to read is: 1 and 2 TIMOTHY. Want to know the truth? Why do I starve myself for awhile, only to piggishly slop around in it later? Wouldn't a more mature approach be to marinate my soul (to continue the food analogy) in the Word daily. tuning my ear to God's Spirit, and seeking to know the will of God ...

The book of Hebrews is a fascinating, beautiful, yet extremely troubling book. It's not long, only 13 chapters. but nevertheless, it is very d-e-e-p-! Anyway. this is what I heard in each chapter. serious food for thought! Chapter 1 - Christ is greater than Angels. 2 - Christ is fully Man. The ministry of Moses was...

Seems weird to call the day Jesus was crucified, "Good" Friday. but oh well. I'm sure there's a historic reason. Not much that was good about it though. Here's a sample of how it went for Jesus. It was nine o’clock in the morning when they crucified him. Look at you now! Was it the crowds, who on Palm Sunday ch...

Charles Dickens, "A Tale of Two Cities". The songs romanticize it, but the reality is that many people are on edge from over-stimulation. We've all seen them, right? Our big splurge was a trip to Fred Meyer (the "Mall" of Ellensburg). to buy an assortment of stocking stuffers for the kids (and dogs). It feels weird, but no l...Chris...

Someday soon, I'm going to post ...
