I am an ordained Assemblies of God minister with monastic and liturgical leanings. There are others as well. I thought I pass along my blog site address in case you would be interested.

Dude,
You’re in Kansas! If you’re ever in KCK, you ought to visit a new order that has moved in, the Community of the Lamb, from France. The support themselves by begging, and spend their time evangelizing and praying. We got Benedictines in Atchison, Too.

Exploring Protestant Evangelical Monk and Intentional Christian Communities (Acts 4). Desire for Christians to disciple/live/serve/pray/study together. Just starting out with 3 houses on 2+ beautiful acres in inner city, high crime, low economic area of Orlando (NOT Disney World). Accepted 9 residents (needed $) before fully forming thoughts on mission. We have community gardens, bible study, discipling, tutoring, music classes, and art. Any advise for finding the right people or bringing the ones we have together.

Hello, Mr. Thornber,

I stumbled across your blog while researching The Woman at the Well. I found your post concerning John 4:1-42 to be incredibly insightful and challenging.

I am leading a ladies’ retreat for our church in October and this passage is my text. I am seeking God’s face (and favor) to see what he wants these women to glean from this unprecedented event in the New Testament.

Often we are far too gullible–accepting interpretations of Scripture blindly. I, too, have swallowed others’ interpretations and have failed to follow the Bereans’ example.

Thank you for a candid survey of a story we think we think we know and understand so well, but not perhaps as well as we thought.

May our God continue to speak and teach through you and your blog.

Because of his grace,

Tamera

Norm,

If you’ll read my post “Truth is a Rainbow,” (http://jimthornber.com/2009/06/24/truth-rainbow) I think you’ll have a better understanding of how I reconciled those two divergent beliefs.
