Manna Book Club
Posted by Ed and Lois
We’re meeting Thursday Oct. 28 at 7:00 PM in the Barnes And Nobles coffee shop.
The last book we discussed was C.S. Lewis’ The Great Divorce. This week we’re looking at “How The Irish Saved Civilzation” by Cahill. Lois and I are still without book so we will be faking it. Greg is out of town so ther will be no grades handed out Thursday night. Hope to see you there.

Road Trip
Posted by Ed and Lois
Lois and I are taking a fall break to Alabama via Nashville.
Starting Friday Lois and I are headed south. Having only ever driven thru Nashville, this time we’re stopping. Lois got her tattoo (Texas) here on a road trip with the ladies. I have a few requirments,(music oriented) but other than that we’re just hangin’. Sunday we’re headed to Birmingham to spend a few days with Lois’ sister. Temps look to be in the 70’s. (Sorry) Dave Miller will be leading worship Sunday in my place. I hate to miss. I hope to be able to blog from the road. Who knows where we might turn up?

Defining Worship by Adam davidson (at Ginkworld)

Experiencing God When He’s Not There
What do you do when you know you’re supposed to worship and yet you feel like something is missing…and that something is God? You sing to an empty room. You pray to the ceiling tiles. You sacrifice praise—to nothing. Your silent moments are met by silent moments instead of that still, small voice that once reminded you that He was there.
If you’re like me, the response to this is a virtual sword fight between cognitive and emotional. Your internal monologue is more of a dialogue as you bounce back and forth between fact and feeling. God is everywhere… but He’s not here. God has a plan for my life…but He’s keeping it a secret. God loves me… but He’s ignoring me.
And this has been going on for a long time. What’s wrong? What am I doing wrong? Have you spent time in this place?
