Hello

11 06 2008

Hello. Welcome to my blog. I will mostly be sharing other peoples thoughts that have inspired me.  I’m not sure who if anyone will read this. Maybe my wife or friends or family. It’s more a place for me to reflect on the positive information I come across. It’s meant to be an outlet for that which is bouncing around in my brain and to ask questions. 

I am hesitant to allow comments on my blog, mainly because I believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that his kingdom is manifest both now and to come. This makes me by defintion a “Christian.” I’ve noticed lately that many things Christian’s post online are met by other Christian’s criticism, enraging a heated debate about whether or not someone really knows God. I hope not to engage in any of that here. I do not feel qualified to have such a conversation with someone. 

I myself am guilty of a crippling cynicism that I hope to crucify for the sake of understanding people, especially those who think differently than me. So if you find that I make a statement that is not in love or judgmental please feel free to call me on it. I to am guilty of the “attitude of the pharisees”, by which I search people’s thoughts looking for a reason to accuse them (I have actually gone on to amazon and looked for 1 star reviews of books a like just to get myself worked up).

If you stumble across this blog and feel inclined to view my thoughts and journey on what it means to be human, feel free to read my stuff. If you don’t, please find another website which will aid in your desire to be transformed into Christ. After all, the goal of theology should be transformation and the goal of orthodoxy should be love.
