Another Voyage

Well, had a great weekend. Catching up on emails, etc. from the weekend. BTW, where is the biblically evidence for "redeeming culture?" I enter the blogosphere never knowing what awaits. Right now, I am preparing for a seminar I will hold on the relationship between human development (specifically lifespan development) and spiritual growth. I read the recent Barna report (I hope to embed the links once i learn how to do that) about younger nonChristians and their view of Christians. Some of it is expected because of the issues of human development and the need for differentiation.

I videoed the segment on Joel Osteen and can understand his central thrust. I have felt what he has said. My sense is that most people get beat up much during the week and don't need it more on the weekend. Is there an island of hope? Is there a place to "carefront" life and my own blindness and still be hopeful? The Jukhari Window reminds me that I have many blindspots. Is there hope for my blindspots?

This week is another week, living and yet preparing to live. Sometimes i think i spend more time preparing to live than living. Stay tuned!

It was interesting to hear the view of young non-Christians and their views re: Christians.

I hope we can continue to create a "safe" place to demonstrate that we are sincerely on the journey while we realize that we fall short. Hopefully they can see some honesty in that.
