BlogSwap 2 Update

I just sent an email to everyone who indicated an interest in participating in the second BlogSwap. If you indicated interest and did not receive the email, please let me know and I’ll get it to you ASAP. From the 8 people who indicated interest in the first BlogSwap we have doubled to 16 for this one. Of course that does not mean that all 16 will actually take the time to write something, but I can hope!

Here is our subject for this time around:

I thought it might be interesting for us to write about an aspect of Christianity that we may have struggled with and have had a difficult time accepting. Perhaps it is a specific passage in the Bible or a specific doctrine. It could be helpful to others to explain how we came to peace with our struggles. Or perhaps we have not yet come to that place of peace. Either way, let’s be transparent about the struggles we have faced in allowing ourselves to be transformed by God.

So hopefully that will generate some good responses. If you don’t know what I’m going on about here, feel free to check this post and join in the fun if you like.

And now it’s time for me to get all prettied-up for the Switchfoot concert tonight!

    Men in the Image of Women and Women in the Image of Men

    God made men and God made women. God made men distinct from women and women distinct from men. God made men and women equal in worth and value while also making them distinct in some purpose and function. It’s all obvious stuff, this—obvious matters of differences between the sexes.

  • A Less Busy Heart

    In the midst of our busy lives, we can sometimes wonder whether we really have the time to pray. Won’t prayer hinder our productivity? Won’t prayer keep us from getting done all the things we need to do?
