I’ve seen a friend do this and I really like the idea. It allows for a certain level of creativity. Here’s what I want — regular readers, lurkers, and surfers-by, I am going to let you decide what I write about through your requests. It can be silly or serious, theological or philosophical, specific or general, your pick. Multiple requests are allowed — just keep it down to a somewhat reasonable number.
I’m looking forward to seeing what everyone wants to read about!
Ok. You walk through one of those portals you talked about in your last post. Tell us what you see.
1)your take on the perfect vs. sinless question
2)what does it mean to get a “new body” and how does that fit in with our heavenly experience?…is it more physical or more whispy and spiritual??
3)what is the book or revelation really all about?
I like your site as it is. I don’t think I’ve ever commented, but your writing is good, your ideas are always interesting and thought-provoking, and (I think) valuable and right-on. You think and write at a depth and level of complexity that isn’t often seen on the web. You address topics not many other people are writing about.
I would love to read your SF&F story if/when you ever write it.
And btw what kind of horses do you have?
Oh, I’m not proposing this as a permanent change — just something fun to do once in a while.
I may post up something short in the SF&F genre one of these days. I’m hesitant to do too much of that in the event that I want to officially publish something later, but I might write something just for here.
We have a quarter horse and an Anglo-Arab. Sweet boys, both of them.
I have to ask – what do you do? Are you a pastor?
No, but I am the son of one. As to what I do, I work as an Enrollment Analyst at Purdue University (as of six weeks ago), with a background in social psychology (M.A.). Basically, I’m a glorified number cruncher.
Oh! well, congrats on the new job! You seem to have a religious following, and I was curious if it was a congregation or just a fan! =) I enjoy your blog.
Thanks! Apparently, I just have a small readership, for which I’m _very_ grateful. Makes all my time spent writing seem at least worth a little bit of the effort, being able to bounce ideas around and get some good feedback. Good to know people read and enjoy it. :)
Ok, keep the ideas coming! I hope to be able to respond to them sometime early next week. In the meantime, plenty here for me to think about over the weekend…
