hey doug - just checkin in.... i added u as a friend but hit before the messages.... would be willing to share with me or others your story of losing a child? i know it might seem 'off topic' but i suspect some of this unspeakably painful stuff ends…
dan, i totally agree... it's still my choice if i am open, intentional and make time. richard foster in his book LIfe With God , describes this tension lbeautifully to me.... stating God is opposed to earning, not effort.....in my expeience i DO nee…
Excellent point, Dan! At some point I want to get involved in this conversation - just been a little busy.
I get the idea that experiencing the love and peace and joy of our Abba is not something we achieve with the proper "method." But I'm also realizing that there are things I can do to block that flow. I sat with a friend yesterday who shared the powe…
Keren, I'm liking your mentors as well. I have a handful of mentors and brothers that speak into my life. I think that's been the best thing about the organized church. That's one of the places where God connects me with others to be mentored and to…
Vicki and Doug: Cool conversation. Thanks for letting us be a part of it.
doug, with all due respect..... i think that I have left hoop jumping of any shape, size or "word"... in the end, i think i do resonate quite a bit with how Dan describes things.... sometimes doug the horrors of past experiences disallow some "langu…
Vic, if your looking for a hand written letter from Gods hand to your to yours, you wont get it, but if you did it might sound like a slick, something for nothing gimmick, that you might throw away as junk mail. If your looking for a mystical magica…
hey doug - well - like i said, i think that there is nothing engineerable, linear, or automatic about relationship with anyone, including jesus. at this point, i am willing to let it be in his hands.... i just wish sometimes there could be a bit mor…
2000 years of programing engineer or otherwise will do that to us, and no matter how ridiculous it must sound, the truth is always, and the lies of the mind are always the lies. I dont think your along way from where you want to be. I think you migh…
doug - well, i'm sure i "know"..... i'm a long way from where my heart longs to be - but i cannot engineer an experience of his love... i'm postive... the metanoia discussions on the blog over the last year takes something that I feel was meant to b…
Its never personal Vick, and i didn't feel any anger, it was just my way of reinforcing what you obviously already know. That you were perfect from your first breath and will be with your last. Nothing more, nothing less, no gimmick, no trick, just…
oh dear doug - i'm afraid that i am truly 'met -annoy - ed" out - (from the blog and the fundamentalist hammering around yet another 'concept'....truly , i see that no gimmic or "thing' to do, will "ensure" some 'automatic' eureka - and becomes for…
Hi Vicki, I'm going to offer you a word that was offered to me and helped me move from a carnal mind that could quite feel the true peace and love of JESUS, to one that is at least a little closer. The word is METANIOA, its original meaning in the b…
hi doug - that is totally what i desire - much more than "clay' needs being met..... that has been such an interesting transformation for me... however, what i have ALSO been learning, is that i simply cannot 'program' or "control' or 'think' my way…
I dont believe that God intervenes in the needs of this clay body that we walk this earth in, but I do believe that the moment you begin to feel the unconditional and gracious love of JESUS in your heart you will feel refreshment, satisfaction, nour…

Your liberation is bound up with mine ...
I saw the following quote recently and thought I'd share it.
"If you have come to help me you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together." - Aboriginal activists group, Queensland, 1970s

Powerful video of grace being applied to an unwed, pregnant woman in a Christian school setting.
This 20 minute video by Danny Silk is really good.

My Mom and My Pearl
My mom died in 2004 after a very brief (3 months) battle with cancer. She lived in Flagler Beach, FL. A handful of family and friends had been hanging out and helping take care of Mom for the last few weeks of her life. Hospice was called in and we neared the end. It was tough on everyone and Mom seemed to just linger.
Hospice advised each of us to say goodbye and to release her. They said that in some way she could hear and receive what we were saying even though she had not been able to respo… Continue

David's Dad
I have the privilege of being David Wallace’s dad. David is seven years old and a delight to me and many others. If you’ve been around him very much the chances are pretty good you might have been hugged by him or at least shook his hand. David loves people and has absolutely no inhibitions about showing it. That’s one of the lessons God is teaching me through David. But the biggest lesson so far that God had for me through David was the first.

How to be a Nobody
By Kwee Lain
Everybody wants to be a somebody
Nobody knows how to be a nobody
If ever there is a somebody
Who knows how to be a nobody
Then that nobody is a real somebody
If you ever want to be a nobody
Then follow that somebody
Who already is a nobody
Later, let go of everybody
Even that somebody
Who already is a nobody
Eventually, you will be a real nobody
Written by somebody, who wants to be a nobody, for the benefit of everybody.
