everyday sex




a friend of mine sent this link to me earlier this week. please watch the video here. (its only 1:41)
...
a few thoughts:
...
a church has a great deal of money to be putting up billboards that big.
if i started this campaign, i wonder how long until i was reappointed...or transferred to another conference?
i wonder what your reactions are to this: does it promote healthy intimacy within marriage and abstinence without, or does it presuppose or reinforce some unhealthy attitudes about sex and its purpose within marriage? just curious what people think.
...
reconsidering my 'spiritual' disciplines for lent,

1. I appreciate that you put how long the video clip was. very nice. it made me click on it.

2. This would obviously mean that the majority of Relevant Church's members are contracepting.

3. This would not work for a couple, like my husband and I, who practice natural child spacing. Especially when they have 11 month old twins.

4. I think married people should 'get together' more often.

5. why did no one else comment?

you make some excellent points.

1. thanks. i thought it would encourage people to actually watch it. glad it worked.

2. i would think most of them are protestants who would not be able to conceive (pun intented) of not using contraception.

3. yes. i agree. do not try this at home. you would soon have a costain congregation living in your home.

4. i think that is the general spirit of the thing, although i'm not sure i'm comfortable with the way it is being presented here.

5. i don't know. people don't want to talk about sex? what's wrong with you people? thanks, christina!

i'm giving away the swamp

so this is a collage called swamp. i made it in february of last year. it is currently framed in a homemade, hand-painted frame. it is paper collage on a book binding panel. it is 7" x 10". and i am giving it away. i've been wanting to have a blog giveaway for some time, and the time has finally arrived. here's how it works. all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. by leaving a comment you are automatically entered into the contest (as long as your comment offers a way for me to get in touch with you, or you know that i know you). the contest will be open until next wednesday at noon, eastern standard time. at that time the contest will officially be closed and i will pick a random number. the person whose comment matches that number wins! for example, if i happen to pick the number 33, the thirty-third comment will win. oh, and one more rule: you can only post ONCE. if you win, i will send you the collage, signed by me, the artist, free of c...

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day. 

affirmed

i cannot express today the feeling i have. this picture that i found sort of expresses it but not really. for the last ten years i have poured myself into this vocation, daring to believe that God, the very God of all creation, has called me, even me, to this work. along the way many have affirmed me in this journey, but i have continued to work for the ultimate affirmation, ordination as an elder in the united methodist church. and now i have it. after two grueling (and i mean grueling in every possible sense, really) days i recieved the call today that the board voted to recommend me to the annual conference for ordination as an elder. and as i have already said, i cannot even begin to express the emotion i feel with words like relief, joy and satisfaction. there will be plenty of time for me to reflect on this and i will have more to say about it as i do that reflecting, but today is really a day for celebrating for me, and for thanking those who have journeyed with me and s...
