Pondering theology...

I've been thinking through a lot of things lately. Mostly it's been brought on by questions that I've been getting at work, but it's really forced me to take a look at what I believe. I'm trying to sort my way through some stuff, and frankly, it gives me a headache. I've polled six different people on various subjects and it's split down the middle. It's not a question of faith, but rather a theological debate going on inside my head. So, if you'd like to give your two cents, please feel free.

What are your views on "free will"? Is there a biblical basis for it, or is it just a man made concoction?

What do think about predestination?

Those are just a tiny sampling of the things rolling around in there.

Anyways, I'm pretty much exhausted. I don't think I've gotten a decent nights sleep since last Friday. I've been going non-stop with CCH and then last night, my first night that I've had to just rest, I spent with a student at the hospital until 2am. Needless to say I was running a bit late for work this morning. Please pray for strength and energy because I'm not feeling any of it right now. Peace out.

An Update...

So, a few weeks back I sent a query to Relevant Magazine about an article that I wanted to submit. A query is basically a description of the article, how many words, etc., and after they read it and make a decision they tell you if they want it or not. Well, I got an e-mail from one of the editors today stating that they would like the article and it will be published in either the print edition or the on-line magazine. Either way I'm super stoked because I will be published! I've wanted to try and do this for years, but out of fear of rejection I've never submitted anything. I'm not sure when it will be out, but I am just so happy. Anyways, that the latest scoop. I'm going to see the Nativity Story tonight...we'll see how it is. It's hard for me to handle Christian cinema, however some of it is so absolutley ridiculous you can't help but fall in love with it (ie. Pamela's Prayer, A Thief in the Night).

I've been working on some stuff for the CCH Girls' Breakfast. Rana will be speaking this year so I'm excited about that. We're kinda changing things up a bit this year, I think it will be cool. Well, that's about it on this end. Later!
