hold life loosely: complicated salvation
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2007/08/complicated-salvation.html
Sunday, August 26, 2007. If you have not seen Black Snake Moan, I'm not sure you want to. But as I was watching/writing my dissertation, I was struck by the complexity of the plot. The main characters are two individuals suddenly cast adrift by life circumstances, confused and grasping frantically for any kind of meaning in life. Think that happens when you are in a suit and a tie? After that, my eyes can open, my nostrils catch scents for the first time, my skin knows its surroundings like never before&...

hold life loosely: September 2007
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 14, 2007. That is what a mighty warrior would do. Then he would go have a pint of the best beer he could find to celebrate. I don't know if I am missing something but that is how I view a mighty warrior. I wonder, is my perspective off or is that pathetic picture of Christ a prissy fraud? Wednesday, September 12, 2007. Is God a Punishing God? What do you think, punishing or loving? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. This is a depiction of my relationship with God.

hold life loosely: June 2009
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 14, 2009. Almost a year later . My first thougtht this morning. Gross, ah? And had to go and use that language on a Sunday too. Peeled my butt out of bed, left for church 15 minutes late, sat out in the lobby, drank a cup of coffee, and listened to most of the sermon, then I don't know why but I went in. My scalp standing on end! Two quick jumps, following him. Second jump, letter to the Phillipians. So, I think Charlie intended to teach on anxiety and faith this morning. But God's Inner...

hold life loosely: August 2007
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 31, 2007. Complexity and other little things . I was working with a couple today who had a one month old little boy. He was adorable! Lately. Holding that beautiful little boy probably did not help me stay focused on the therapy. At that time, I knew there was too much going on for me to manage coherently. I gave that session to God. I don't know if their relationship will weather this storm but I dearly hope so. Wednesday, August 29, 2007. That date in history . Sunday, August 26, 2007.

hold life loosely: A Punishing God?
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2007/09/punishing-god.html
Wednesday, September 12, 2007. Is God a Punishing God? Yesterday, I realized that, in my gut, I believe that God is an angry, vengeful being. That sucks. I want to know the part of God that is love but right now, I don't. Is God more love or more justice? I think right now, I just am not experiencing the love side. He is so strong, yet he lets screwed up things happen. Maybe I will see him differently later but right now, I don't like him much. What do you think, punishing or loving?

hold life loosely: God watches UFC?
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2007/09/god-watches-ufc.html
Friday, September 14, 2007. That is what a mighty warrior would do. Then he would go have a pint of the best beer he could find to celebrate. I don't know if I am missing something but that is how I view a mighty warrior. I wonder, is my perspective off or is that pathetic picture of Christ a prissy fraud? Wanted to say something wonderfully contemplative as your site provokes, but mostly just want to say hi. September 19, 2007 at 4:56 AM. Wallace D. Harrison. Enjoyed stopping by Jon.

hold life loosely: That date in history ...
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2007/08/that-date-in-history.html
Wednesday, August 29, 2007. That date in history . On the day I was born, the number one song according to the Billboard charts was "I'm Your Boogie Man". By KC and the Sunshine Band. I didn't even know about this song before tonight. One of my co-workers says that I was raised in a cave. She was right. But poking my head out of my cave is an enjoyable experience. My high school friend Kristen that just moved to southern IL? Her hubby plays for the current KC and the Sunshine Band. How weird is that?

hold life loosely: My major? ... Political Silence
http://holdlifeloosely.blogspot.com/2007/08/my-major-political-silence.html
Wednesday, August 22, 2007. Perhaps you have heard the early whispers of the vast political machines supporting the top presidential candidates. So, do I think one of the politicians is the best choice? For now, my major is political silence. Good idea, Jonathan! I am really dreading the election this go around and am not sure how either party could have the best answers considering the vast differences in opinions on the war and other issues. By the way, Chan still is silent in blog world!
