A moment of your time please for a personal request

G'Day friends,

I begin tonight a few days of solitude to prepare for the celebrations of Holy Week. I've brought with me along to my cottage (aside from my dog), a CD set of 15 lectures by Dr. Phillip Cary, Ph.D, entitled, "Augustine: Philosopher and Saint", and a copy of N.T. Wright's "The Resurrection of the Son of God" to feed my mind and soul in the peace and quiet that my cottage affords me. Mateo (the aforementioned dog) is not much of a conversationalist and and there is nary another person in sight, so it will be a time of silence, study and prayer.




My many conversation with friends here have given me a great deal to pray about, a gift that will be remembered in prayer in the days ahead.

I write simply to ask for your prayers over the. They would be gratefully appreciated.

Tim

Comment offered by the theists in the public square is often depicted as being 'malicious' or 'venomous' and intended to enslave the 'feeble minded and weak' by those who post. Nothing could be further from the truth. Venom is something that is oriented to death. Christians are oriented in a 180 degree different direction. We speak not to the culture of death  that grips our world but rather for the culture of life and light which ends with the gift of eternal life. For example, the Catholic Church in its hum...
