Greetings! Read on to hear about one of those ten ideas. But, before you do…
For those wondering where I went (how egocentric to think you wondered!), check out the last post: How Bad Can it Be?  We’ve been oh-so-busy thinking, planning, seeing contractors, going to kitchen stores, picking out floors, cabinets, etc.
We actually have a tile [...]

How Not to Get Divorced (some thoughts from a Christian perspective)

Posted in Christianity, Divorce, God, Jesus, Marriage, Suffering, faith, life, love, religion, spirituality on October 4, 2008 | 7 Comments »

I read somewhere on someone’s blog a discussion about finding “the one,” the perfect soul mate, the right choice so that we can live life happily ever after.
Forgive me for my cynicism, but I am not sure that the point of marriage is to live happily ever after. I wonder: if more Christians got a different point of marriage, would there be less [...]

Delivered: Don’t Forget It!

Posted in Bible, Christianity, God, Jesus, Marriage, children, family, life, love, parenting, religion, singleness on September 20, 2008 | 1 Comment »

I must sound like the most bitter hag on the planet, considering my spate of blogs on anger, doubt, frustration with church, etc., etc., etc.
So, I’m going to turn the tables tonight and exercise my thanksgiving muscle.
You know what God said about remembering. To keep from turning into wearisome whiners, those Israelites were supposed to [...]

More About Doubt

Posted in Christianity, Jesus, Marriage, Thoughts, doubt, faith, religion, sanctification, spirituality, spritual formation on May 27, 2008 | 4 Comments »

I sort of feel this responsibility to keep posting about this issue, especially for those who come to my blog and may start to question their own faith by what I have written elsewhere: Doubting Less, but Not Doubtless and Doubting at Last.
A few things have crossed my mind these past days. I’ll share them in a series [...]

Single, Lonely, and Sexless

Posted in Bible, Christianity, God, Jesus, Marriage, Suffering, life, love, relationships, religion, singleness on April 24, 2008 | 12 Comments »

I may be stepping into hot water with this post. Frankly, I am a bit worried.
 
But here goes.
 
I recently read a post by John Shore entitled: Homosexuality Isn’t Stealing or Lying–But It Is Being Lonely
 
You can imagine that there was plenty of discussion in the comment section following the post. I added my two cents… and [...]

Dreaded Taxes: Tool of God

Posted in Bible, Christianity, God, Marriage, books, humor, life, miracles, religion, spritual formation, taxes, tagged on April 7, 2008 | 3 Comments »

I utterly hate tax time.
I hate pulling together all the stuff. Since I’m a perfectionist, I have to make sure I exactly document business and medical expenses, deductions, charitable donations, etc., etc., etc. It makes me crazy. And I am infinitely glad it is done. For 2007.
But what makes me crazier, however, is finding out [...]

Seven things about myself.  An easy thing to blog about, and treyka told me I have to. So here are my sordid seven….
1. I met my husband online 13 years ago. We didn’t mean to. Weren’t looking. At the time, it was a really weird thing to do. So we took to telling people we met in ”an alien [...]

Sinning as I Post (and a Note for Those Among Us Who Are Divorced)

Posted in Christ, Christianity, Divorce, God, Jesus, Marriage, Theology, Thoughts, faith, family, life, love, personal, prayer, religion, sin, spirituality, stress on January 14, 2008 | 11 Comments »

Yesterday, I put up a post about divorce and the purpose of marriage (How Not to Divorce (some thoughts from a Christian perspective)). I think what I said was accurate and some friends (God bless those kind folks) left nice comments.
But I screwed up.
First, I have this idea that no one will read too long a post. Or at least, [...]

I read somewhere on someone’s blog a discussion about finding “the one,” the perfect soul mate, the right choice so that we can live life happily ever after.
Forgive me for my cynicism, but I really don’t think the point of marriage is to live happily ever after. In fact, if more Christians got the point of [...]
