It must be a quantum thang.<BR/><BR/>DBA, I got a similar take on my first reading of Shack and have to admit that I may have rushed the reading somewhat at the time. There are some recurring themes that have meant more to me since that time and it is easy to see where some of the writer's inspiration may have come from now. Like you I cherish the out of the box Christ and Bishop's teachings are much more in line with my personal theology than most spiritual leaders that I have been exposed to.<BR/><BR/>JBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-68679924191645953962009-03-03T12:15:00.000-05:002009-03-03T12:15:00.000-05:00Twitastic, Bishop!

Saturday I got a card in the mail as my birthday is coming up this week and I couldn't for the life of me make a connection as to who could have possibly send me a card as I don't really know that many people in GA especially with the sender's last name. So, I opened the mail and it's a beautiful birthday card with cash in it. When I saw the sender's name at the bottom where people usually end with "love always," The name...I almost fill out. I called my husband and showed it to him and we were both standing there in awe. <BR/>For years I was attending a smaller church and that has never happened. And I have always had my hiccups about big churches and couldn't understand why I was pointed to CITN. But somehow I have always been able to feel like an individual and not get lost. <BR/>Thank you for motivating your leadership and with that they are able to show by extension who you are. I am in my happiest moments as I continue in being apart of CITN. <BR/>Peace,<BR/>NicolaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-85846640418939811162009-03-03T09:36:00.000-05:002009-03-03T09:36:00.000-05:00NL, the original purpose of word verification is t...NL, the original purpose of word verification is to prevent spam from automatically downloading on your blog, but sometimes the combination of letters form particularly meaningful or ironic statements or acronyms pertaining to someone's comment...and sometimes they're just funny...Bishop Jim Swilleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17367155153494024919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-4689278247166578252009-03-03T09:31:00.000-05:002009-03-03T09:31:00.000-05:00What I like about the cartoon character is how his...What I like about the cartoon character is how his head reminds me of a marshmallow Easter peep; his jaw looks like a whale. (oh yeah... better blog some God talk.)<BR/><BR/>I don't want anyone to go hungry today, Bish. Not even cyber accusers. Here's some gingerbread. Correct it, if you must:<BR/><BR/>JOY In The Now X111: <BR/><BR/>12. Got oodles of JOY seed? Get ready. Prepare for more! Buy a wheelbarrow. But, whoa... if you don't have much - watch out! Pfft! Somebody's after the little you guard.<BR/><BR/>13. Thing is, I'm tellin' 'em in a roundabout way. Because, even though their eyes are open, they can't see JOY bubbles. And even when they're listening, they're not hearing laughter's language; can't dial in its frequency.<BR/><BR/>14.

Had to drive on some mighty fine ice behind slowpokes who forget you have to keep moving along as you go up a hill! Arg! But I met a young fella at the Enterprise whose Dad was from Nigeria who is named Moses. As I entered the office and commanded a blessing on the house to the 5 occupants, someone asked me if Moses had parted the snow and ice on the ride from the bodyshop. Then broke immediately into "Go down Moses, Way down in Egypt land." It was a rollickin' morning for sure.<BR/>Moses is 25 and has been involved with his church in mentoring downtown- told him about Street Jam & some of the stuff goin' down at CITN.<BR/>----------------------------<BR/>"Jesus went straight to the Temple and threw out everyone who had set up shop, buying and selling. He kicked over the tables of loan sharks and the stalls of dove merchants. He quoted this text: <BR/> My house was designated a house of prayer; <BR/> You have made it a hangout for thieves. Now there was room for the blind and crippled to get in. They came to Jesus and he healed them. <BR/> When the religious leaders saw the outrageous things he was doing, and heard all the children running and shouting through the Temple, "Hosanna to David's Son!" they were up in arms and took him to task. "Do you hear what these children are saying?" <BR/> Jesus said, "Yes, I hear them. And haven't you read in God's Word, 'From the mouths of children and babies I'll furnish a place of praise'?" <BR/> Fed up, Jesus turned on his heel and left the city for Bethany, where he spent the night.<BR/><BR/>Matthew 21:12-17 Message <BR/><BR/>"Now there was room for the blind and crippled to get in. They came to Jesus and he healed them."<BR/><BR/>This is a word for our country at this moment in time: the spiritual "money lenders"(whatever they may be in an individuals life or in the 'life' of the country) have got to be run out of the Temple(the heart) so that God may have "room"('Prepare Him Room') there to operate as He pleases.<BR/><BR/>Heaven and nature will be singing- together, in sync, harmoniously, splendidly all to the Glory of God.<BR/><BR/>Good morning.<BR/><BR/>Bro LarLarry Usherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09646136429393405366noreply@blogger.com
