Inside Nancy's Noodle: Nudist Churches?
http://insidenancysnoodle.blogspot.com/2011/03/nudist-churches.html
Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Saturday, March 12, 2011. How do you feel about standing naked before another person? You might think such a concept would really pack the pews, but, in truth, I suspect it would be very difficult to get people to attend such a church. As observers, perhaps, but not as participants! They made some clothes so they could hide their nakedness. Psalm 32 is the perfect way to begin the Lenten season because it’s about a journey from fear...

Inside Nancy's Noodle: July 2009
http://insidenancysnoodle.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Thursday, July 30, 2009. Now I'm thinking that I’ve been wrong about that. Lowering our expectations isn't the solution. A prayer to the church in Ephesus has challenged me to see this in a new way. It’s always amazed me that Christ chose to have the Church act on his behalf, as his Body in the world. The question, “What were you thinking? Clearly, a change will be a move toward removing walls that the Church has erected over the years, w...

Inside Nancy's Noodle: Tears at the Altar
http://insidenancysnoodle.blogspot.com/2013/06/tears-at-altar.html
Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Sunday, June 9, 2013. Tears at the Altar. Some members of St. Andrews gathered on the front lawn of their church building the first Sunday after this happened. They brought their prayer books and their lawn chairs and met together outside the building that had been their spiritual home for so many years. And the media was there to take it all in, making their pain a very public news story. June 9, 2013 at 5:12 PM. June 9, 2013 at 6:09 PM.

Inside Nancy's Noodle: Can you see me?

Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Can you see me? Can you see me in this picture? Not too long ago I went to a rally for 8,500 teaching assistants who will be losing their jobs because of budget cuts for public education in North Carolina. When I arrived at the rally I was asked, “Are you a teaching assistant? 8220;No,” I said. 8220;Are you a teacher? 8220;No.”. 8220;Do you have children in school? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

And, it’s a hard one. 8220;So I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of dishonest wealth so that when it is gone, they may welcome you into ...

Inside Nancy's Noodle: The Day After They Lined Up for Chicken
http://insidenancysnoodle.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-day-after-they-lined-up-for-chicken.html
Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Thursday, August 2, 2012. The Day After They Lined Up for Chicken. But then when I learned about the millions of dollars Chick-Fil-A contributes to organizations that are working to deny the rights of gay folks, I realized that every time I buy a chicken sandwich there, I am contributing to those organizations, as well. So, I won’t be doing that any more. It’s as simple as that for me. Thank you. Fort Mill, SC. August 2, 2012 at 10:03 AM.

http://insidenancysnoodle.blogspot.com/2015/07/shaking-dust.html
Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Sunday, July 5, 2015. The sermon for July 5 at Holy Trinity. Do you know that every morning last week, when I drove to our church building here on The Plaza, I never once wondered if it would still be standing when I got here? Near the end of the term, there was a lot of buzz about Nikki Giovanni coming to campus for a poetry reading and I decided to go. It seemed that every black person on campus was there. I had never been in such c...

Inside Nancy's Noodle: A Bad Case of OCE

Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Thursday, April 2, 2015. A Bad Case of OCE. I don’t know that I’ve ever had a case of OCE like the one I’m experiencing this year. I suspect it has been like this every year of my adult life although I always seem to forget from one year to the next. Every time Holy Week rolls around, my brain turns into a 1 G computer that is trying to process 4 G of data. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Tears at the Altar.

Inside Nancy's Noodle: You Thought You Could Ruin Our Easter?

Read about Nancy's new spiritual memoir. Follow Nancy on Facebook. Sunday, April 5, 2015. You Thought You Could Ruin Our Easter? Today Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Charlotte celebrated its 100. It was a Sunday full of surprises. Perhaps the biggest one was something that none of us had planned. When people arrived, they were greeted by protesters on the front sidewalk. Can you believe it? Have I mentioned how truly amazing the children of Holy Trinity are? Today I asked them to tell me about signs of ...
