Virtual Cove: March 2012
http://virtualcove.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 05, 2012. Get These Things Out of Here! Clearing Our Most Costly Clutter. Jesus was not what they expected. That's what I'm learning. Both of our scripture selections for this week in Lent remind us how radical and revolutionary Jesus' life, death and resurrection really were and are. Where are the areas that need to be cleaned out as Jesus cleared the temple? What would you like to wind up and toss out the window? Any injustice or unrighteiousness in your world or the larger world-in-gener...

Virtual Cove: April 2011
http://virtualcove.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 06, 2011. In the last post, Darin noted that the time we've spent studying the last day before Jesus's death have led to some uncomfortable moments. For me, the most uncomfortable one is coming up this Sunday. Even more than the (admittedly horrible and inhumane) Crucifixion, I am hit, every year, by the torture scenes we'll read this week. These days, I still weep when we read the torture scenes, but not only for Jesus's unimaginable suffering. I weep because it was so needless....The q...

Virtual Cove: Why God's Love Prevails (and why words are important)
http://virtualcove.blogspot.com/2012/02/why-gods-love-prevails-and-why-words.html
Wednesday, February 08, 2012. Why God's Love Prevails (and why words are important). Well, we've made it through the tough discussions and now get to receive a little dessert. Chapter 4 in the WHY? Series by Adam Hamilton. Focuses on why God's love prevails. and it couldn't come any sooner! The first three chapters were a bit rough, at least among the folks with whom I spoke. Not rough in that we turned on each other; rough in that it sparked heavy discussion that demanded serious consideration. Bothers ...

Tuesday, January 31, 2012. Thy Will, Not Mine. but give me a hint, eh? Dear Water's Edge Worshippers,. Have you ever been absolutely convinced - to your core, no doubts - that you were destined to do something in particular, connect with someone, do something radically different but all you? So powerful it was, that you could feel it in your bones? I was a TV reporter for 17 years and knew from the moment I walked into the student-run TV station at American University. Is God calling me to serve? Or, cou...

Virtual Cove: God Moments: Roaring Campfires, Snowy Blankets and Tecalote Canyon
http://virtualcove.blogspot.com/2012/02/god-moments-roaring-campfires-snowy.html
Monday, February 13, 2012. God Moments: Roaring Campfires, Snowy Blankets and Tecalote Canyon. Let's start this week with a quick read of the scriptures. Notice anything similar between the OT and NT readings? Spiritual Moments on a grand scale: Elijah's ascension and Christ's transfiguration. As they continued walking and talking, a chariot of fire and horses of fire separated the two of them, and Elijah ascended in a whirlwind into heaven. Revved up senior counselors always provided plenty of study and...

Virtual Cove: May 2011
http://virtualcove.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 19, 2011. A plan to live. The rapture may be this Saturday, but I'm planning to be in worship on Sunday. It's not that I don't believe in heaven, or think I'm not worthy to go. I do. I just don't think I should wait to float up into the sky to be with God- to experience fulfillment, happiness, joy. Why I Want To Be Left Behind. I look forward to seeing you Sunday.
