There was not a flag to be found nor a patriotic hymn to be heard. The sermon was amazing, but a tough on forgiveness. Forgiving those who can't fix what they broke, Forgiving those who can't repay the debt. Changed my entire thinking about forgiveness. But I hope to make it to Chattnga for a visit.<BR/><BR/>CJEChris Ewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06085340298401296474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784401.post-1126489129331303582005-09-11T18:38:00.000-07:002005-09-11T18:38:00.000-07:00Allen and Jo:That's pretty unbelievable, I don't k...Allen and Jo:<BR/><BR/>That's pretty unbelievable, I don't know what I would have done.<BR/><BR/>Chris:<BR/><BR/>Great post, one of your best. You talked about the blip on the screen Mother Teresa's death was compared to Diana's. The irony in how the media covered the two events it that it more than likely played out exactly the way MT would have wanted it to. She would have seen Diana's life as tragic and worthy of a story, while her own life was full and rich and worthy of barely a mention.<BR/><BR/>I will have to dwell on that this week.J-Wildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17682981365579357845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784401.post-1126482471673767212005-09-11T16:47:00.000-07:002005-09-11T16:47:00.000-07:00Hey Chris, good post.

We watched a tribute to the soldiers in Iraq with the Harding chorus singing God of Our Fathers (acapella) in the background. We then stood and pledged allegience to the flag in the middle of the service. Jo and I didn't know we were going to worship the US armed services this AM. <BR/><BR/>Why does our leadership want to speak for us instead of speak with us about God's kingdom?<BR/><BR/><BR/>Allen and JoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
