Remember God

Published by SoulScribe under Who needs theology

Faith is like a river, ever flowing towards God.  As the water, we must quench our desire to change course.  To grow faith and strengthen it, we must water the seed within us.

Learning about God and our beliefs is crucial to keeping our faith healthy – without this, it is easy for our faith to fall by the wayside or to leave us when times get tough.  If you open yourself to growing your faith – that strength will stay with you through the darkest of nights.

Remember to see God and learn about him in your daily life.  He is there, not in the obvious, but in the smallest moment.  You must be open to his call.  It makes the darkness bright.

Who needs theology?

Published by SoulScribe under Who needs theology

 It’s a question that we all ask ourselves in one way or another.

Theology is for those really holy people who can understand it, right?

Nope, wrong-o.  Theology is for everyone.  It’s not for monks wearing brown robes holed up in stone caves.  It’s for every living, breathing human.  Theology isn’t the same for everyone.  There’s book-smart theology for those real scholarly types.  There’s common-sense theology for those sweet gentle souls.  And for those of us in between, there’s a nice theology mixture.

Theology is about the journey to God.  It’s about growing and expanding our knowledge of faith.

And that’s the purpose for this blog.  I’m one of the in-betweens, so you’ll find a balance here of common sense and book smarts.
