		<description><![CDATA[I’m preaching in church this weekend.  I always love this opportunity.  To paraphrase Eric Liddell in Chariots of Fire, ‘when I preach I feel His pleasure. ‘

As often is the case, I have little advance warning of this opportunity.  Officially, I have 7 days to put it all together, which is certainly less than I’d like.  I’m not really complaining, but at this point my brain is a jumble of thoughts.  I’m going to use my little blog this week to highlight the process that goes on inside of me as I prepare...

		<description><![CDATA[I need to start off this article with a short disclaimer.  I got started down this philosophical road by an article in Matt Crosslin's blog, which he started as a response to a Relevant Magazine article, "Is There a Church Mutiny Afoot?"  I started my part of the discussion several weeks ago, but was unsatisfied with what I'd written.  I felt that my thoughts on the issue were too muddled, and in some ways I still feel that way.  One of the reasons I write this blog is to put legs on ideas, and in so doing, bring a little clarity to them.  That is the only reason I have put this up.  It is important for any reader to understand that none of this is combative, although the issue of Christian ambition does strike a bit of a sore spot with me.  Further, I have no animosity toward Matt or Relevant.  In fact, I feel the opposite.  Some great illumination has come to me through the reading of both.  It is in the healthy debate that I feel the greatest good is served...(Click the Title above to continue reading)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have a friend in the ministry who is a big Beatles fan.  We often playfully debate philosophy and music history together.  She included this quote in a recent email, and I thought I would respond.

"Get out there and get peace, think peace, live peace and breathe peace, and you'll get it as soon as you like."

I have thoughts about your John Lennon quote... (click article title to read the whole article)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today was a crazy full day, and fortunately I got enough sleep to survive it.  Now it wasn't bad, it was amazing, but it was full.

The morning started out with me rolling around for 45 minutes simply because I could sleep in.  When I finally got some coffee going I started reading the Bible.  I have been really ruminating over Jesus statement in the gospels, and Paul's reiteration in 1 Corinthians that communion symbolizes "a new covenant in my [Jesus] blood."  In John chapter 6, Jesus says that his disciples are to drink his blood, and if they don't they have no life in him.]]></description>
