Life 103: May 2006
http://life103.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 27, 2006. W E Zielie, my kindred spirit and life long pal who I miss terribly and who I hope is waiting for me by the gate. Auntie Myrtle Zielie, who worked harder than any woman ought to have to and never complained, and who lived both beautifully and simply in the same house for 60 years. Marge Weesner, who inspired me to live life fully no matter what, no matter when, no matter how you feel. Merril Holdahl, who welcomed me into his home, called me by name and taught me how godly men live.

Life 103: July 2006
http://life103.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 10, 2006. I see our version of who is in, and who is out, as too cut and dried. It’s harsh to the point of callousness. It’s too piteously small. It lacks imagination. It is so homogeneous and self-serving that it’s just plain boring. Yesterday morning in the quiet I asked God, Am I being arrogant and graceless too? Yesand no Not usually but.in some cases, maybe. In one case, very likely. Lord Jesus Christ,. Son of God,. Have mercy on me. Posted by kathy at 9:31 PM. View my complete profile.

Life 103: September 2006
http://life103.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 10, 2006. Yesterday our church joined some others in the area to throw a block party for the south side of Newberg. Not your ordinary block party. Our pastor has been getting together to pray with some other area pastors for a while now and this little group of mother hens hatched an idea to have a party on the south side with music, food, games and chore services all for free to area residents. Ospital the day before. She wanted a picture of the boys for their dad. Just them to...One g...

Life 103: August 2006
http://life103.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 23, 2006. Today, I made myself leave home to find a quiet place to listen. Fortunately I have friends in high places that let me keep a key to our church and the back row of the balcony suits me perfectly for times like this. My friend Gregg. Who I saw this morning and am sorry to report that he couldn’t keep that makeover up on his own so has let himself slip back into ordinary) recently asked me what I’ve been hearing from God. As usual, he is full of very good questions. The hospital...

Life 103: December 2005
http://life103.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 26, 2005. Church according to me. Our final assignment in the class I just finished was to write a paper describing a church I want to plant, lead or be serving in the year 2015. We were charged with describing the beliefs, values, mission, demographics, structure and purpose. This is essentially my Church Theology final paper:. This church will believe that Christ speaks to listening hearts as we work, play, live and serve with others, making all of life sacred and meaningful in the tra...

Life 103: March 2006
http://life103.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 26, 2006. Today in gathered worship something happened. The Spirit moved and we could feel it all the way up to the back row of the balcony. Someone coming into the sanctuary afterward felt it too and they hadn’t even been there for it. If I were a better writer I would describe it. I just know that I felt something very deeply and didn’t mind it at all despite being tired and burned out on deep feelings earlier this week. Questions were going off like popcorn in my head: What if God. And e...

Life 103: January 2006
http://life103.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 27, 2006. Every person in my Listening Life small group recently took the time to examine his or her life while listening to Christ then shared their journey with the rest of us. This is what I heard as each one offered the precious gift of a peek into their inner most being. Divine and human intersect. I have seen the face of God in others and he is beautiful. Thank you Jason, Amy, Vivian, Diane, Dawn, Peggy, Hubert, Bonnie and Aj. Posted by kathy at 9:22 PM. Wednesday, January 18, 2006.

Life 103: February 2006
http://life103.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 11, 2006. Free of Charge: Giving and Forgiving in a Culture Striped of Grace. At the conversation, Volf said, If you don’t have a sense that you should give more than you receive then how on earth can you forgive? Forgiveness is a particularly difficult gift to give. He also said that, even when I rightly consider the other person an enemy but think of them in God, I can negotiate a healing relationship. We live in a graceless society that is obsessively punitive. In. Miroslav Volf and...
