What a dull night so far at the library (where I work.) I thought why not delve a little deeper into why I created this blog. I was at home over Easter and I was at my uncle's house. This was to be a time of great joy as we were spending time with my second cousin who has brain cancer. Everything was going well until I hear someone mention contemplative prayer. As one who values that type of prayer I thought that the conversation might be one that I might want to join. And as I listen more closely I hear this person (a cousin's wife) talking about how wrong contemplative prayer is. I bring up the Taize community. It is a community in France that strives to bring Christians from all over the world together in prayer. And what does this women do? She starts talking about how bad and how wrong that community is. Well in my natural state of things I walked into the other room, sat down at the piano and started playing Taize hymns! But after I got back from break I started to question myself on how someone like that could be so hateful. How could someone like that have all of the answers when this community brings thousands of Christians together every year. Jesus-is-savior.com does the same thing to the Taize community as well as to the UCC, Orthodox church, Catholic church, Anglican Church, the Lutheran Church, and many other churches as well as religions. It is this kind of stuff that has made me very angry and has inspired me to start this blog. God Bless!

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit! Amen!
