Now I taste jasmine on my tongue: Belief and Relationship
http://tastingjasmine.blogspot.com/2008/06/belief-and-relationship.html
Now I taste jasmine on my tongue. Thursday, June 26, 2008. I picked up Marcus Borg's book Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time. Yesterday at the library. I've only read the first chapter, but I found part of it intriguing. Borg gives his spiritual autobiography and concludes that he has reached a new place:. In John's gospel. After Peter has denied Jesus, he is reinstituted not by his belief or knowledge, but by his love. I don't know enough Greek to understand the agape/phileo. Borg would agree that t...

Truths Against Truths: A Note on How to Read. October 19, 2010. Read Adam Kirsch’s review. Of Robert Alter’s translation of. Job, Proverbs,. That they serve as a kind of counterpoint to the world’s narrative as established elsewhere in the Bible is not a new observation, but one that Kirsch does well to point out — he points it out in the context of. All of these are, of course, different. This revelation, as it may initially appear, contradict itself? 8212; as to how we, millenia later, should read it&#...

Thoughts unbothered by preparation, deliberation, or spellcheque. Somebody call the case company. October 27, 2009. I’m feeling a particular longing increasingly frequently these days. To see the sun, actually. But rain and the dreariness of this foul weather are hardly blog topics. Lunch today at church. As I watched them wonder what to do with that full vat of incredible pasta. Lunch on Sunday at the Johnson’s place. That beef brisket was so good, and look at all those leftovers. Enter your comment here.

Thoughts unbothered by preparation, deliberation, or spellcheque. June 27, 2009. My mom died on Friday the 19th. We miss her, but we are joyful because she is home with Jesus. Here is the good news, as told by Keith Getty and Stuart Townend:. In Christ alone my hope is found;. He is my light, my strength, my song;. This cornerstone, this solid ground,. Firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace,. When fears are stilled, when strivings cease! June 12, 2009.

Now I taste jasmine on my tongue. Monday, June 30, 2008.

Two questions arise at once about what has been proposed. By what authority are Primates deemed acceptable or unacceptable members of any new primatial council?

Now I taste jasmine on my tongue: Readings from Kierkegaard
http://tastingjasmine.blogspot.com/2008/06/quick-snippet-from-sickness-unto-death.html
Now I taste jasmine on my tongue. Monday, June 30, 2008. A quick snippet from The Sickness Unto Death. When reading Kierkegaard, I'm always impressed that I'm reading a writer who seems to be completely about God. He never takes the simple way out of a dilemma. In The Sickness Unto Death,. He argues that God will make you miserable. No prosperity theology here. In Fear and Trembling,. He argues that true faith requires belief in God, not a moral canon. Father John Neuhaus wrote a great article. Humanitie...

Now I taste jasmine on my tongue: The Pope on Being 'Saved in Hope'
http://tastingjasmine.blogspot.com/2008/07/pope-on-saved.html
Now I taste jasmine on my tongue. Monday, July 14, 2008. The Pope on Being 'Saved in Hope'. The Bishop of Rome asks a pertinent question in his encyclical Spe Salvi. Or Saved in Hope. How could the idea have developed that Jesus's message is narrowly individualistic and aimed only at each person singly? I also found his explanation of the nature of freedom to be interesting:. The first quote makes him look Protestant. July 14, 2008 at 1:35 PM. You should start posting again. It's an ethical obligation.

Thoughts unbothered by preparation, deliberation, or spellcheque. I guess I’m not a woman after all. September 24, 2009. This post was going to be entitled “Signs that I am a woman.” Then I wrote it and said to myself, “mighty sad list there, bucko. Not a single mention of BBC movies or overanalyzing? Psh” So now it’s “Signs that I have a sweets addiction.” That’s better, right? 1) I have three types of chocolate waiting for me at home. 3) I received a set of springform pans for my birthday.

The First and Only Great Classic of Neoconservatism. September 14, 2010. Well, I guess it really depends on what you mean by “neoconservatism.” It’s Sam Tanenhaus’ description of. Mr Sammler’s Planet. For the best five books on American conservatism. His list caught my attention notably, his willingness to include. On his list (and fiction for its own sake, not because it gives insight into Joe McCarthy or Buckley). I don’t have my copy of. But the neoconservatism of. All this talk of neoconservatism and.
