Hey Len,

Yes, deep humour – so deep in fact that you could almost miss it. But sorry, can’t let this rare, insightful volume go. But I can offer you this pearl of wisdom that I hope will provide you with some spiritual uplift this long weekend.

Q “Is dancing sinful?”
A. “Yes, I belleve all dancing , by whatever name it may be called, is sinful and harmful. Even ballroom dancing – where men hold women in their arms with their bodies touching (even lightly) and they glide along cheek to cheek – is definitely harmful.”

You can almost hear the sin as Jimmy so eloquently describes these dens of disgusting dancers. So, Len, let there be no dancing this weekend. I trust you have been edified and encouraged.

Hi Jeff
Loved your comment
I take it as deep humour tinged with irony

I needed a good laugh today Jeff!! Unfortunately I have to wear the hat of “hatchet lady” again…:(

Steve, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to your presentation it helped “bring me back” somehow – maybe that thing called being centered again?

Now, Len. 99.9% less? Your clearly unchurched and faulty detector suggests that Steve is near perfect – a stumbling block for him, for sure. And God forbid! What if his Starbucksian, Romanesque, New Age, do-gooder blend catches on? It’s already creeping into Briercrest of all places – college and careers folk beware. Instead of offering our praise, shouldn’t we rather gently guide Steve back to the only way – the foundational truths, the faithful witnesses, the four spiritual laws. Steve, if you’d like, I can lend you that Jimmy Swaggart “Answers your questions” book that you sent me. I’ve found it to meet Len’s purity standards; I suggest you would too.

your posts contain 99.9% less bull spit than the average sermon

“Added life experience has left me with fewer answers and some embrassement over past pronouncements.”

the path of wisdom

Good judgement keeps us from making egregious errors. Good judgement is gained by having engaged in those very things we seek now to avoid.

What Steve needed was not luck, but rather more time than I gave him! I’m profoundly moved by the whole presentation, in particular, the story of the dream – where Jesus catches the eye… Thanks so much, Steve. Also thanks to Deb for her informative and engaging presentation on the Enneagram.

Life’s journey is indeed sequenced with questions.
Questions that seek answers and questions that question other questions.
Perhaps there are answers at the destination.
Still, how dull would life be without questions, comtemplation and wonder?
