My Most Unpopular Beliefs

I put this as a new category at the top of my home page. I haven’t really filled it in except to ruminate a bit about why I am so slow to preach some of the things I believe are true but which aren’t “in.”  Okay, I admit it – I am a coward. Telling people what they would like to hear is my bag, baby (as Austin Powers would say).

I asked one of my sons what his most unpopular belief would be. Without hesitation he replied, “Women should not be football sports announcers.” Of course, I am thinking more theologically. Maybe I will fill some things in. Not sure. But I wonder about it.

For some reason I don’t think I would make a good Athanasius or Martin Luther. Their beliefs cost them an easy retirement. 

Today’s Quote 9/5/07

FB Meyer
There is a life-attitude toward the will and purpose of Christ that is so quiet, so at peace with God, so at rest in His joy, so perfectly content that He is doing the best, that the lines in the face are smoothed out; the fever is gone from the restless eye; and the whole nature is still.  Rest in the Lord.  Wait patiently for Him.  Then share your experience with others who have lost their attitudinal focus.
