Dancing... or drinking through life
I am not even sure that I know how to do a link anymore. I'm giving it a shot though so, three readers, please forgive me if I mess this up.
So Rod Dreher's sister is battling cancer. It is nasty. Their faith is extraordinary. Here's his latest post (I think)

Back...
I'm back here at JWalking after a bit of time because I just want someplace to record thoughts from time to time. I doubt that many of the thoughts will be political - there are plenty upon plenty of people offering their opinions on everything political and I doubt that I have much to add that will

Learning to tell a story
For the last ten months or so I've been engaged in a completely different world - the world of screenwriting. It began as a writing project - probably the 21st Century version of a yen to write the great American novel - a shot at a screenplay. I knew that I knew nothing about the art but was inspir

And just one more
I have, I think, just one more round of chemo left.
When I go through my pill popping regimen tomorrow morning it will be the last time for this particular round of drugs. Twenty-three rounds, it seems, is enough.
What comes next? We'll go back to what we did after the surgery. We'll watch and measu

Amen. Great theology, too.

I am just struck at how this image is apparently out of the ordinary for a Sunday service. Shouldn’t we have images plastered all over our cortex of those in the church imitating Christ? But then again, maybe there are many moments to grasp if we only pay attention. At a minimum, I should be able to recognize myself being His hands and feet.

Certainly a moving picture of true friendship and love for another person.

Would this be a “pieto” (masculine of Pieta?). It could also be David & Jonthan. Love takes so many marvelous forms.

Saw this on ‘los blog and then at Heather, his wife wonderful picture of worship and joy. Best part was that neither young man was doing something to get attention – they were paying attention (as in really worshipping) to their Lord and Creator.

Michael, this is quite a common occurence in the “Evangelical” Churches I have attended services in. This current social climate we are in in America does not lend itself to showing what happens inside Christian Churches unless it shows Christians in a negative light. Then again, that may be the typical history between Christians and non-Christians. I couldn’t take my eyes off a couple in my Church on Easter Sunday. A man (middle age) was attending to a woman (middle age)in a wheel chair that he brought to the Church. The woman had no ability to move at all. All I could see was my wife and I in that couple. That is, when I could see through my tears.
