Catechisms and Cataclysms: December 2007
http://catechismsandcataclysms.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 19, 2007. Of Pilgrimage, Guilt, and Social Change. I've included below some reflections - really unfinished thoughts - about the march and rally I attended for the Coalition of Immokalee Workers. Labor organization behind the Taco Bell boycott, earlier McDonalds post, etc.) The experience itself was invigorating and hopeful, and I even got to address the crowd, which was a thrill. Here is a link to the Presbyterian News Service. Am I a closet subscriber to works-righteousness? I am a ...

Catechisms and Cataclysms: June 2006
http://catechismsandcataclysms.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 10, 2006. Birmingham Bound, or Ga-GA. What happens when you combine a family reunion, the exhibit hall at the county fair, a multitude of multicultural worship services, and one very long committee meeting? Why, you have the (now bi-annual) national convention for my personal brand of the frozen chosen. Church geeks, get out your laptops and follow the bouncing ball through the legislation process as we bring you to General Assembly! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Thursday, August 30, 2007. Over and done. Maybe. I'm looking forward to the semester that's looming ahead.

When the forest where the hummingbird lived went up in flames, the other animals ran out to save themselves. But the hummingbird stayed, flying to and from a nearby river with drops of water in its beak to pour on the fire. From a distance, the other animals laughed and mocked it. "What do you think you are doing? They shouted. "This fire is overwhelming. You can't do anything." Finally, the hummingbird turned to them and said, "I'm doing what I can." -as told by Wangari Maathai. What is Violence to Me?

Catechisms and Cataclysms: Things I Learned this Summer
http://catechismsandcataclysms.blogspot.com/2007/08/things-i-learned-this-summer.html
Monday, August 27, 2007. Things I Learned this Summer. 1) I really like living in my hometown. 2) Therapeutic lying is a riot. 3) My CPE supervisor thinks I'm "enigmatic.". 4) That said, I'm still really bad at anything that requires hiding what I think or feel. 5) The ordination exams aren't nearly as intimidating as I had feared. 6) My Preparation Committee knows me better than I think they did. 7) As much as I talk about the need to "preach prophetically," it scares the bejeezus out of me when I do it.

Catechisms and Cataclysms
http://catechismsandcataclysms.blogspot.com/2007/08/blessings-to-you-all-from-washington.html
Sunday, August 05, 2007. Blessings to you all from Washington State. I'm currently sitting in the Spiritual Care office of St Peter's hospital, the same building in which I was born 27 years ago next Thursday. I have attempted to write and post several times over the course of the summer, but the computer at the house where I have been staying seems to have a specific block that only targets new posts in this particular format. Odd, I say the least. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Catechisms and Cataclysms: April 2006
http://catechismsandcataclysms.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 28, 2006. The Theology of Detergent. Today served as a reminder that you cannot predict the ways that the Holy Spirit will use you or your words. In October, as I was rushing to complete my weekly lectio passage before flying out of town for training, I spit out a hurried reflection on something new, and almost silly, I had seen in the Message translation of Psalm 51. I was puzzled by the imagery it used, and wrote in that off-kiltered state. I didn’t think much of it. Links to this post.
