Real Journal Entry

Aug 13, 2005 23:29

Okay, it's time I wrote a normal journal entry about the gist of what happened today (Saturday), though there's not much to tell, really. All right, here I go. I started the day out with--guess what--LJ’ing. It’s too much fun already! Let’s see ... more LJ’ing. ... I’ve been debating whether or not I ever ate breakfast today. (Korina, that’s ( Read more... )

Btw, Joel... Summer is my sister, and Ben is the guy she is courting!

I saw the movie, Dune and it was really weird. I couldn't totally follow it either, and it was hours and hours long.

What books (as a general rule) do you like to read besides sci fi?

Ah hah, more family connections ( ... )

Ah. Nice books you mentioned ( ... )

I just had to jump in here. lol

Hey, I like Janette Oke! She's fun to read, if not very deep. :) I do like ones that tie mystery and action in, though (Terri Blackstock is one of my favorites--Dee Henderson is good, too--I haven't read many by Lori Wick, yet). Of course Francine Rivers is good.

I also like Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte, as well as Frank Peretti. =)

Cool! =D

Once again, more stuff we have in common. ;)

Actually, Char, the church I'm attending here in NW Arkansas is a Vision Forum church. :)

Really? I thought you just found them through Vision Forum or something.

Cool! Now I'm looking forward to Sunday even more. ;)

Sometimes the world seems very small! There aren’t too many people who’ve heard of Vision Forum, and there are even fewer who’ve liked their material enough to order from them. Actually, our family has only really become familiar with VF over the last two years about. I really appreciate most of what is taught by Doug Phillips (the president). His ministry of teaching about biblical family is indispensable these days.

Hmm, C.S. Lewis... He was a deep thinker, and his writings have always interested me (‘have a set of small books by him), although his theology was a bit messed up from what I gathered from some of his works, like the Screwtape Letters, which I happened to really like, btw. I definitely would like to read more John Piper; I got just a taste of his writings while I had Don’t Waste Your Life on loan for a few days, and that taste has left me with the desire for more. He seems to write with such emotional depth and fervency-or at least it impacted me that way ( ... )

Yes. C. S. Lewis does have some bad theology, but if you can pick through his writings, discarding the bad stuff, and keeping the good... What he has to say can be very enlightening.

John Piper actually uses a lot of C. S. Lewis quotes.

That sounds kinda’ biblical. “...If thou take forth the precious from the vile...” Jeremiah 15:19. :) I agree, btw. That's probably why I like reading C.S. Lewis as much as I do.
