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 2025-240: On the Road: Good Day

Some excuses are better than others.

I think I mentioned I was on the road.  I was traveling up to my brothers house and I was going to try and see him in the hospital.  He died when I was still about 400 miles away.

I don’t offer this as an excuse.  It is just a way to explain why I have not been real consistent over the last few days.  I changed plans and course at 3:00 in the afternoon and ended up driving12 hours to get here.  Even sleeping later than usual I am the first one up, and I have a front porch to sit on and see a lake between two houses.

I don’t know which way I’m facing.  The sun is not quite up, but the sky is light.  In spite of my ignorance, God is here.  The entire family up here is in love with Jesus and so while it’s hard to lose someone, we are all living in the Hope with a resurrection to come.

It really makes a difference.

      Thank you. Since he was a believer there is a lot of laughter and joy mingled with the tears.

      Grace and peace
