"The Page 123 meme"

Posted in My Life
Valerie from Life's Good tagged me with The Page 123 meme:

I cheated and went to my bed side table, since the only book close to me is the phone book... yeah, didn't think you'd be TOO interested in THAT!!  Or Keenan's school books...

1. Grab the book closest to you.
2. Open to page 123, look down to the 5th sentence.
3. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog.
4. Include the title and the author's name.
5. Tag 3 People.

1.  This is the closest book to me at my bed, which is where I WISH my computer was, so it's half true!

2. pg 123, (actually, pg 122, because there aren't 5 sentences on pg 123) 5th sentence is "Some of us are suspicious of addressing the soul in worship, not because we have seen emotional manipulation firsthand but due to accounts of emotionally driven moments that have strayed far from biblical teaching or resulted in great conflict.

3. and the next 3 sentences: Maybe you know of churches that have been torn apart or indiviuals who have been deeply hurt by emotional excess or manipulation in worship.  These memories echo in the ears of those who would tell us to check our emotions at the sanctuary door, yet at what price?  From the very  beginning of the faith, there has been a risk in opening our soul to God in worship.

4.  Experiential Worship by Bob Rognlien (subtitle Encountering God with Heart, Soul, Mind, and Strength)

5. and I am tagging... hmm, Holly at Seeking Faithfulness , javamama at ponderings... , and Jimmie at One Child Policy Homeschool

Thanks for playing in advance... forgiven if you choose not to!! :)  I chose women from different corners of the world ... at least in terms of where they come from... so go check them out!!  I like them each dearly!

Hey Renee - your comment was just fine. :) The physical part of marriage is VERY much a part of it. I'm thinking a lot of people would be QUITE unhappy if it weren't....

:)

I'll TRY to do the tag. :)

About Me

A place to record my journey of creating a life of balance. First as God's child and bride, "wifing", mothering, homeschooling, leading worship, neighboring, mentoring, teaching piano, and the myriad of other things that clamor for my time and energy. And a place to put pictures to show my family whom I miss incredibly, and who live so very far away from us here in Alaska!!
