Get into the ring! How this works...

This is easy! Each week on Thursday I post my homily idea...my main focus for preaching this coming Sunday. What I am hoping for is a reaction from people in the pews. Does my "focus" connect with your daily life, faith, and experience? Or not? Either affirm the direction I am going in (by giving me an example from your life) or challenge me, ask for clarification! Questions are the best! Reaction rather than reflection is what I'm looking for here. Don't be afraid, get in the ring. Ole!

Rooted in Faith

I am making the public appeal for this campaign at all the masses. "by signs" were they known as his disciples. It's about the church!

BINGO!!! Love it, love it, love it!!! The journey from believing to understanding is conversion. The journey from believing to understanding is ... taa-daaaa... APPLICATION!!!

APPLICATION OF THE TRUTH.

Very simple, so simple, wish I had known this earlier in my life.

Yes, this connects with my life's experience and faith, and I think I'm sorta/kinda getting it -- day by day -- but it requires thinking & reflection (& a lot of practice! And falls & getting up again!) cuz many times I choose based on how I feel or knee-jerk what I want versus conscience, reason, God's will...

And here's the other thing...I used to think conversion was a one-shot deal or something dramatic (and it has been), but it is the daily application of the Truth. Love that... DAILY application of the Truth. I want to make this spiritual life "easy" by being done with the work of it, but it is in the living it WITH Christ that I am raised WITH Christ.
