Had one of those weekends

Posted: Monday, May 22nd, 2006 @ 2:17 am in Faith, General | No Comments »

Finished the week in a blur of consulting. Was exhausted by Friday evening, and wasn’t in the greatest state of mind this weekend. Saturday night doing sound for Katie was good, though I wasn’t perfect, and I don’t like being imperfect. Was planning to go to church, but sleep schedule was off and not highly [...]

Sundays

The sun was out today and yesterday, as it often is in Colorado. The daytime temperature approached 80 degrees (Farenheit that is). It was a good day.

Later…

Humility

The past week has been very humbling. Definitions differ. There is one that says it is seeing myself and things around me as they really are. Humility is knowing my weaknesses AND my strengths. In that sense, perhaps it isn’t humility, since my weaknesses are more apparent to me at the moment, and my strengths [...]

Brian McLaren on Da Vinci and Left Behind

Do you think the book contains any significantly detrimental distortions of the Christian faith?
McLaren: The book is fiction and it’s filled with a lot of fiction about a lot of things that a lot of people have already debunked. But frankly, I don’t think it has more harmful ideas in it than the Left [...]
