Listening to the Voice of the Beloved: Do Not Hinder Them
http://watchlistenbe.blogspot.com/2013/11/do-not-hinder-them.html
Listening to the Voice of the Beloved. Friday, November 15, 2013. Do Not Hinder Them. We sing and the pastor reads from Psalm 139. I'm mouthing the words, recalling how as a child my mom taught it to my brother and me. "You search me and know me . If I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me . You knit me together in my mother's womb . Such thoughts are too wonderful for me . ". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Present is King. An Unfamiliar, Scary Place. This baffles...

Listening to the Voice of the Beloved: May 2015
http://watchlistenbe.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Listening to the Voice of the Beloved. Tuesday, May 19, 2015. On the Uncommon Perception of My Garden. My second year of seminary is over! Only one more to go. For me, one of the worst parts of finishing the school year is the change of pace. My mind is finally given space to be as anxious as it wants to be, thinking of the future, purpose, calling, and nothing to do about it now. Free from homework and anything else to do after dinner until September, I. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Present is King.

Listening to the Voice of the Beloved: Sleepless Love
http://watchlistenbe.blogspot.com/2012/12/sleepless-love.html
Listening to the Voice of the Beloved. Wednesday, December 5, 2012. Tomas opened the door with a smile and I could see Kelly's face peeking over the couch back in the living room. It was good to see our friends. Their eyes looked more tired than usual, despite their warm welcoming smiles. We said hello, slipped off our shoes and shuffled over to the couch to peek at a tiny baby girl curled up in her mother's arms, sleeping. How do you greet a little baby like that? That's a miracle of love. Someone l...

Listening to the Voice of the Beloved: An Unfamiliar, Scary Place
http://watchlistenbe.blogspot.com/2013/01/an-unfamiliar-scary-place.html
Listening to the Voice of the Beloved. Sunday, January 27, 2013. An Unfamiliar, Scary Place. GUEST BLOG by Rachel McClenahan. Because a snowstorm was predicted overnight, I jumped out of bed on Friday morning to see how much snowfall had accumulated. With just a dusting on the cars in the neighborhood, I got dressed and headed out the door. Today, a foster care worker and I were driving to Detroit and I would meet the 11-year-old boy whom I was assigned as an adoption worker. Worker. “Oh man! I don’...

Listening to the Voice of the Beloved: Dead Body, Grieving Body
http://watchlistenbe.blogspot.com/2014/02/dead-body-grieving-body.html
Listening to the Voice of the Beloved. Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Dead Body, Grieving Body. As I sang I opened my eyes and saw mourning family and friends looking to me. And suddenly I was not singing anymore, but they were singing through me words they themselves needed to hear. I was carried by their grief to sing the song with new life and hope with strength I can only attribute to the Spirit of God. Their eyes were asking me, “Is there hope? 8221; and by the Spirit my song cried, “Yes indeed! This b...

Listening to the Voice of the Beloved: Not Like D. Bowie's - It's Different Than That
http://watchlistenbe.blogspot.com/2013/12/not-like-d-bowies-its-different-than.html
Listening to the Voice of the Beloved. Monday, December 9, 2013. Not Like D. Bowie's - It's Different Than That. A number of years ago at my home church in San Diego, they built an outdoor labyrinth in the back corner of the church property. I walked by it often. I knew it was used for prayer, but I was always suspicious that it was syncretistic, melding some sort of weird spirituality into Christian prayer. Why do we have a labyrinth? How will it feel?

Listening to the Voice of the Beloved: Things I Touch
http://watchlistenbe.blogspot.com/2013/10/body-buds.html
Listening to the Voice of the Beloved. Friday, October 11, 2013. Removing earbuds is an easy fix (that I shall remedy on my next run). However. It is my turn to share at the high school boys' prayer request circle and I am dumbfounded. It's like when I look for my misplaced keys, even feeling the empty dresser with my palm to make sure I'm not delusional. I have almost nothing to say except, "Uh, yeah. it was . good, I think.".
