- Confession is an under-practiced, powerful, potentially healing practice in the church (as in the people who engage with their Creator). And I don't mean confession as in seeking forgiveness from a priest or any other empty, misinterpreted, liturgical tradition. I mean confession as in to each other. The kind that enables people to sincerely bear each other's burdens and sets us up for natural accountability. Not the pragmatic kind, the responsive kind. Not the normalizing "me too" kind, the power in numbers kind.... I want to study more about it and what it looked like in the early church.
- I always wondered which one would win- coffee or music. This week, I found out which one I could give up over the other.... and I am not looking forward to the void that will now persist in my life for the next while. But at least that mystery is settled.
- I've learned that "hiding God's word in your heart" can prove to be a sort of intercessory.
- Did you know it's the year of restoration and dreams being awakened? Why would I believe something so crazy-like? Cause my friend Efe told me, and I trust her....
- I have learned how to use Blogger in Draft (I heart user-friendly techies)... and have been reminded that Google will never let me down in the area of web-usage.
I'm working on a post concerning Miller's Problem with Black and White Thinking. That was by far my favourite post he's ever written, other than the one to Pat Robertson... The one from Monday just struck a chord that I've been feeling out my entire adult life. So, I've lots of thoughts to sort through...

I've starred and bookmarked and cheered at that "Black and White" post since it was released. Good, no, Great stuff.
I'm so curious about the coffee/music war. Tell me it was the coffee.
Please tell me you gave up coffee. I am so proud of you. Actually, I am quite impressed. <3
