Luther's Deer Leg: A Few Thoughts on Freedom
http://luthersdeerleg.blogspot.com/2010/11/few-thoughts-on-freedom.html
A Not Terribly Well Focused Weblog. Sunday, November 28, 2010. A Few Thoughts on Freedom. There is something to the sense of obligation that does indeed feel binding, enslaving, down-weighing. Obligation is the downside of commitment. See also "duty." I admit that I do tire of it. Ask me what first comes to mind when I think of retirement and it's "no responsibility." Second is "sleeping in." Third is "doing what I feel like, what I choose." I'm looking forward to it some day. John M. Hudson.

A Not Terribly Well Focused Weblog. Friday, February 10, 2012. Three Thoughts on Holy Baptism . . . These are excerpts of three Facebook posts I wrote that say a lot about my theology of Holy Baptism, which I hope is well within orthodoxy. What I tell my adulto-baptist friends: There ain't no water baptism, there ain't no paedo-baptism, there ain't no believer's baptism. There's only one.

A Not Terribly Well Focused Weblog. Monday, February 13, 2012. It Was Irresistible. I Had to Say It. The late afternoon temp was barely in the 30s and the wind was brutal; it was a good day for a free cup of coffee to take to work with me. I stopped in at the Starbucks on Timberlake in Lynchburg with my empty coffee-bean bag. For that I get a free "tall" cup of coffee and I thought I'd go for Starbucks' new blonde roast.
