Almighty God, whom truly to know is everlasting
life: Grant us so perfectly to know your Son Jesus Christ to be the
way, the truth, and the life, that we may steadfastly follow his steps
in the way that leads to eternal life; through Jesus Christ your Son
our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy
Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Our Common Prayerbook 30 - 3
Psalm 30 thanks God (vv. 1-3, 11-12) and exhorts others to thank God (vv. 4-5). Both emerge from the concrete reality of David's own experience.

Theology After Darwin 1 (RJS)
One of the more important and more difficult pieces of the puzzle as we feel our way forward at the interface of science and faith is the theological implications of discoveries in modern science. A comment on my post Evolution in the Key of D: Deity or Deism noted: ...this reminds me of why I get a

Who does well when it comes to passing on the faith to the youth? Studies show two groups do really well: conservative Protestants and Mormons; two groups that don't do well are mainline Protestants and Roman Catholics. Kenda Dean's new book is called Almost Christian: What the Faith of Ou

Let's Get Neanderthal!
The Cave Man Diet, or Paleo Diet, is getting attention. (Nothing is said about Culver's at all.) The big omission, I have to admit, is that those folks were hunters -- using spears or smacking some rabbit upside the conk or grabbing a fish or two with their hands ... but that's what makes this diet

A few weeks ago I found out I have 2 types of cancer. Shocking I have a large family and no one ever had any cancer. My sister is worried and told my other family members I wasn’t taking it seriously. My reply is “Worry about the things you can do something about and things you can’t do anything about put it in GOD’S hands. My friends and family are wonderful and all are praying. The Good Lord works in Mysterious ways, he works on his time is not our time. Whatever happens it is truly up to the Lord; he has the plans. So I am going to enjoy life and see what plan he has in store for me. I was with the Lord before I came here and will be with the Lord when I leave. I still have a lot I would like to do, but that is totally up to the Lords Plan. Bless You All
