I lived in Little Rock 17 years so I might have seen the paternal ones sometime - ha. You are fortunate (blessed) to still have them with you and that they are getting to know your children.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15978016568840318921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16875673.post-14228995215151259012009-01-07T19:49:00.000-06:002009-01-07T19:49:00.000-06:00Julia,Your question is excellent and I've consider...Julia,<BR/><BR/>Your question is excellent and I've considered making the answer a whole post sometime.<BR/><BR/>Until then, here's my short version:<BR/><BR/>I believe the Christian mission is to spread the good news that we are all loved, accepted and free to live up to our most amazing and beautiful potential. That we are all made of the same stuff, have the same goals, and struggle with the same challenges. That, in the end, we are one, and that this whole universe thing is headed somewhere unimaginably good.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad my writings have connected with you. Grace and peace!<BR/><BR/>--MichaelRedleftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04834798382800790723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16875673.post-91776506471344664262009-01-07T19:08:00.000-06:002009-01-07T19:08:00.000-06:00Oh Buck - 'Great' made me laugh out loud. After Ti...Oh Buck - 'Great' made me laugh out loud. After Tim and I got married (we were both 41)the kids were hugely interested in whether there would be another baby. I said, "Well, we've decided to hold off until we see how the five of you turn out. If you turn out to be fine and reasonable adults, well, we might just consider another one." About a week later, one of them did some math, and said, "But you both will be <I>old</I> when we are grown up." And Tim and I looked at each other in mock dismay as if that thought had never occured to either of us.Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16875673.post-56856389602819985592009-01-07T02:48:00.000-06:002009-01-07T02:48:00.000-06:00Hi!

Glad you had a great time and hope you are all feeling better.<BR/>While you were away I wrote a response to your post "My Brain Needs an Enema".<BR/>This is part of what I wrote:<BR/>So often you express in words exactly what I've been dwelling on.<BR/>Anyway, my question is, you know how you wrote: "my evolved understanding of grace, and how it's changed my life and changed what I see as the Christian mission."<BR/>What do you think is the Christian mission now?<BR/>Thanks.<BR/>Julia<BR/>PS Sorry to call myself Anonymous but I don't know how to give myself a name on here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16875673.post-24706005574651254882009-01-06T21:58:00.000-06:002009-01-06T21:58:00.000-06:00Lookin' forward to the DVD list...you are so fortu...Lookin' forward to the DVD list...<BR/>you are so fortunate to have all your grandparents with you.
