Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2013-289: On the Streets: All God’s Children God Shoes

As I came out of the bakery where I start my day, walked across the parking lot, climbed into my car and began to get ready to drive to work I could not miss the guy in the middle of the traffic lane.  At first I thought he was homeless or drunk but when he continued to stand there bent over double I looked again.  He was adjusting his shoes and arranging his sweat pants so that they draped in the most stylish way.  Understand.  He was in the traffic lane of a busy parking lot during the breakfast rush and he is bent over with all of his attention on getting his pants tucked in properly in his bright orange shoes.  When a car almost ran him down he still took time to adjust the hang of his pants before going on his way. 

I sometimes wonder if evolution is true.  Will this guy join the long list of dead ends to evolution.  He lived, this time. 

It is no wonder that some people have nice shoes but no future.

  1. The undertaker probably won't even PUT shoes on the guy.

    1. Don't tell him that. You would be taking away his purpose in life.

      Grace and peace.
