		<title>Raising the dead</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I am gone, if you bring me back it will be a wasted miracle.  As soon as I see you, I will be headed for the electric chair.  Just saying.

		<title>The Fall</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Man never fell from grace.
To believe the opposite requires believing that there is a depth which Grace does not reach.
It is a denial of the reach of Love.
We are both darkness and light, divine and flawed, transcendent and momentary.
Above all we are Loved.
And Love looked at us as a lump of clay and said, &#8220;Be.&#8221;
Love [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brief</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Really, it&#8217;s OK.
I am.
You are.
There is One author and finisher.
We do not have to add any words to these.

		<title>Failure</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If I have a student who wants to learn, who is willing to do the work I give, who listens to the corrections I offer &#8212; and then at the end of our time gets a failing grade from me, who failed?
Did they fail as a student?  Or did I feel as their teacher, leader, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Holiness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Jesus said to them, &#8220;Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you.   For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes did.

		<title>Home</title>
		<description><![CDATA[or another attempt at words &#8211;
I have reached a point where going, gone, or in residence; I am home.
Doing, undoing, or resting; I am.
At my core, I find,
me,
you,
them,
earth,
God,
deliciously whispering,
&#8220;I am.&#8221;
We are together in that I.
Blissfully, gratefully, lovingly home.
Now here,
no longer pining for no where.
Life came from chaos,
already home.
Life east of Eden,
has only felt alone.

		<title>Heaven</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Am still contemplating the things I have been taught to say so lightly; God lives in us, Heaven is where God is, We are all one body, Heaven is a lost coin, a hidden pearl, a found sheep&#8230;  By my definitions, God in us makes us heavens.  Tolstoy wrote about it with great eloquence when [...]]]></description>

		<title>An Old Term</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is another reason I decided against another term for a person of all people.  We already have the word disciple used by Jesus.  Or in the book of Genesis we are told that God originally called both the man and the woman Adam as they were given the command to be and to spread [...]]]></description>

		<title>A new category</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I decided to develop this further than just the comment added to the last post.  I really think our society, or at least this member of it, is ready for a new category of identity.  Here are the definitions I was recently asked to choose from for our federal government.

		<title>American Politics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I read a liberal article today focused on how conservatives name things (effective) and liberals mock (ineffective).  For good measure they included Progressives who at times can be found in either camp.
I do not believe the problem in American government is diversity of opinion.  I do not believe the problem is people who have opposite [...]]]></description>
