PWJ: S1E31 – MC B4C3 – “Time and Beyond Time”

One comment

Today we’re talking about time. This might seen like an abstract topic, but it helps us understand important questions, such as:

1. If God is all-knowing, how can we really have free will?
2. How can God keep creation going while He was a baby asleep in a manger?
3. How can God be attending to millions of prayers at once?

So put on your thinking cap and let’s ponder the mystery of time…

Music Monday: We Dance

One comment

For today’s musical selection, I decided to choose the song mentioned by Matt on our recent podcast. The song is “We Dance” by Steffany Frizzell-Gretzinger:

[Verse 1]
You steady me
Slow and sweet, we sway
Take the lead and I will follow
Finally ready now
To close my eyes and just believe
That You won’t lead me where You don’t go

[Chorus]
When my faith gets tired
And my hope seems lost
You spin me round and round
And remind me of that song
The one You wrote for me
And we dance
And we dance

[Verse 3]
And I’ve been told
To pick up my sword and fight for love
Little did I know that Love had won for me
Here in Your arms
You still my heart again
And I breathe You in like I’ve never breathed ’till now

[Verse 4]
And I will lock eyes
With the One who’s ransomed me
The One who gave me joy for mourning
And I will lock eyes
With the One who’s chosen me
The One who set my feet to dancing

[Closing]
It’s nice to know I’m not alone
I’ve found my home here in Your arms x4

Loving Aslan more than Jesus (Lamp-Post Listener Voicemail)

2 comments

If you’re a member of The Bird and Baby, the CS Lewis Reading Group in San Diego, you’ll have heard me talk about The Lamp-post Listener before. Whereas in the The Eagle and Child, Matt and I work through Mere Christianity chapter-by-chapter, in The Lamp-post Listener, Daniel and Phil are working through the Chronicles of Narnia a chapter at a time…

Daniel and Phil recently launched a telephone number where listeners can leave them voicemail (-406-646-6733). Since I love the show, I left them a message and shared with them Lewis’ thoughts on the child who was afraid he loved Aslan more than Jesus. To my delight, my voicemail was included in the most recent episode of the podcast, at about the 44 minute mark. You can listen to the whole episode below:
