Taste of War

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Can there be a “limited peace” or a “conditional peace” or a “provisional peace”?

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

Life is so rich with possibilities, so full of goodness and beauty and joy.
Lead me from stale TV, old news and oppressive people and attitudes.
Let me know the deep love you open to our hearts in Jesus.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“I’m telling you, people, waterfront property is the way to go.”

[He was big on baptism and walking on water, but He didn’t say this – probably.]

D. Blog: War’s After-taste

My brother used to say the reason coffee keeps people awake is because it leaves an awful taste in their mouths. It’s the same with war: we remember wars so vividly because they leave an awful taste in our psyches.
