		<description><![CDATA[Peichi’s Amma must have decided to put all of the events I mentioned in my last blog entry behind her, though, as she was very welcoming to me as we showed up for Chinese New Year.  She didn’t even keep much of a watchful eye over me, as I might have expected.  I cannot be sure that she hadn’t carefully noted the home’s entire inventory and each item’s place prior to my arrival.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When we arrived in Tainan somehow the news of my knee had spread south at a pace that left our stuck-in-traffic 50 km/hr clip.  I have always found that dealing with ailments abroad (or the prevention thereof) is a fascinating experience all on its own.  In Iceland, the family answer to bee stings was for me to eat ice cream.  In El Salvador, they suggested that after being in the rain I absolutely must wipe my whole body down with alcohol.  Every country has some sort of strange sounding advice.  The old wives are alive and well, and telling their tales.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When people don’t see what we are doing as vital in their lives (and I mean everything from a church picnic to a Sunday sermon) then they begin to look at church services and events as religious duties performed by the faithful, but having little real meaning or import.  They actually begin to view these times as something that must be endured, often primarily in order to maintain their fellowship with the people in the church.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I sit in staff meetings often trying to figure out why announcements are not communicating effectively.  There will be times when an event that we know meets the needs of our community and has been sufficiently announced will be quite modestly attended.  It is not a rare occurrence when we hear after the fact, “Oh, I wish I had known we were doing that,” when I knew that person sat through several Sundays of announcements on that very event.  Now, our church is a healthy and growing congregation with vital and growing ministries.  People are not bored with out church, and our events are usually well attended. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Communication as being part of the very nature of God is not confined to exegesis of John 1.  In Genesis 3:9 after Adam sins God asks him, "Where are you?"  This is amazingly profound.  God obviously knew the physical location of Adam.  There was no question He couldn't answer.  The real question should actually be seen as 'why are you suddenly distant?' or 'Where has our intimacy gone?' Before this moment there were no walls.  Man was naked and unashamed, hiding nothing.  This side of eternity, God would never again walk with man directly, unobstructed.  There was now separation.  The rest of human history is the story of God closing the gap.]]></description>
