PLEASE READ "THE SPIRIT OF THE DISCIPLINES" by DALLAS WILLARD if you have time... you are free to borrow it from me anytime... just find it, and read it... I don't think you will put the book down and remain unchallenged in your thinking and in your spirit... this book is sitrring stuff... i mean, one of two books I've read this week that "stretched" my thinking and opened my spirit to God's wonderful truths about life and ourselves.

Just something sooo exciting I got to QUOTE it here! haha.

Something about theology...

He writes, "We shouldn't be frightened of the word 'theology'. Admittedly, it has kept some pretty dry and dreary company, and we may be tempted to leave it to "the experts". But it stands for something FAR TOO IMPORTANT to each of our individual lives and to the communities in which we live for us to shy away from it. Theology is a part of our lives. It's unavoidable..a thoughtless theology guides our lives with just as much force as a thoughtful and informed one.

...an informed theology must eventually be in the service of ordinary people, and when it is, it will have a great impact for good. Every Christian must strive to arrive at beliefs about God that faithfully reflect the realities of his or her life and experience, so that each may know how to live before Him in His world.

That's theology!"

How can you read smth like this, and not JUMP AS HIGH AS YOU CAN, and SHOUT HALLELUJAH, AMEN! HAHA!
