Meditation on Romans 14
http://theothercriminal.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 05/ 14/ meditation-on-romans-14/This passage (and the commentary that goes with it in The New Bible Commentary) taught me a new word: adiaphora.

The Legalism of Seeker-Sensitive Worship
http://voiceofthesheep.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 05/ 14/ the-legalism-of-seeker-sensi…If I was really deep in my theological musings, this post would probably be quite long and academic in the way it handles this subject.

Religion vs. The Gospel (Part 1) - What does Religion look like?
http://godwithus1.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 05/ 13/ religion-vs-the-gospel-part-1-wha…I used to think that if I prayed, read the bible a certain number of times a week, and went to church on Sunday that I was okay with God. Heck, I believed if I went to church on Wednesday, God would give me bonus points!!! Every week I got into a routine that just seemed to be like clockwork. When

Are You a Pharisee? Am I?
http://coreydavis.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 05/ 12/ are-you-a-pharisee-am-i/When you hold conservative religious beliefs in the area of Christianity, as I do, you may find yourself labeled as a Pharisee. Since the Pharisees were often rebuked by Jesus, to call someone a Pharisee is no small matter.

The Problem of Legalism - Part 1
http://invertedplanet.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ problem-of-legalism-part-1.htmlby Bruce Mills A couple of years ago, my youngest son was going through a stage in which he was moussing his hair into a kind of “Mohawk” look. I personally thought it looked ridiculous, but I decided a long time ago that such matters were not a hill on which I wished to die in terms of my relationship with my son.

Blue Jeans and Jesus
http://writingathena.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ blue-jeans-and-jesus.htmlAs you know, I frequently wonder why in the world I go to church, not to mention Sunday school. Today I got an answer, sort of. Believe me, I was tempted to play hookie from Sunday school--not to beat the Mother's Day brunch crowd, since I was planning to make a fantastic lunch when we got home (it
