I was aiming for honest, without self-censure, which I do enough of on a regular basis to make me look for an outlet.Bad Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540577363786819292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15524211.post-84073168403356865712009-04-20T09:03:00.000-05:002009-04-20T09:03:00.000-05:00Gee, anonymous. How about yours?
Dearest Bad Ali...Gee, anonymous. How about yours?<br /><br />Dearest Bad Alice,<br /><br />I wish sometimes you could come do church with me! But we are small and the music is, well, not contemporary. The music sorta isn't.<br /><br />We gave away jellybeans, too. =o)Theresa Colemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12134175277230355640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15524211.post-12314972174229362052009-04-18T04:47:00.000-05:002009-04-18T04:47:00.000-05:00I just can't believe you would post all of this. ...I just can't believe you would post all of this.

He was beginning his (now finished) doctoral work, to do with music and worship (since he's a musician and has mostly been the music guy in churches) and his struggle with the contemporary "praise song" thing and how it seemed emotionally manipulative and what did that say about true worship, etc etc. etc.<br /><br />'Course, that's one of the reasons I became Catholic...good music. (Admittedly, there are Catholic churches with similar issues ("folk mass"....shudder), but the funkiest we get at the Cathedral is the Taize service on Friday nights.<br /><br />I never have received a free jelly bean at church, though.Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15130321823549477784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15524211.post-68358082315329131292009-04-13T03:23:00.000-05:002009-04-13T03:23:00.000-05:00Glad there were a few positives.

I do wonder whether an occasional visit to a more contemplative style of church might be healthy for you - I totally get that loyalty to the lovely & loving people at your church is a big anchor, but you dont want to loyally starve you spirit.<BR/>Sorry. Will stop vicaring at you now.Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09171138485811816831noreply@blogger.com
