		<title>An Ocean Prayer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We watched for two and half hours for whales off the coast of Virginia, but saw only the awesome creation of sea, sky, birds, and the glow of wind on my face. A breath of ocean air. A prayer.

		<title>391 (God’s Dirt)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was talking to the Youth about this passage the other day, and I vocalized how incredible I thought God’s poetry skills were. He rips into Job with a series of passionate poems, almost raps. I’ve always found the last few chapters in Job to be some of the most captivating writing in the entire [...]]]></description>

		<title>Worth Living For—Worth Dying For</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Gene Stoltzfus blog:  http://peaceprobe.wordpress.com
This is Gene Stoltzfus’s last essay, completed on Wednesday, March 10, 2010, just before he headed out on his beloved motor-assisted bicycle on the first spring day of the year. He picked up his U.S. mail in International Falls, MN. Then on his return journey, less than a kilometer from home [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beautiful Judgement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Scriptures for worship recently have brought out themes of judgement for me… something that I’ve wrestled with and tried to leave alone in the past. This time, though, I decided to follow the scriptures and words from worship a bit further.
How do Christians understand God’s judgement? My first impression is a stern figure who punishes [...]]]></description>

		<title>329 (Roses and Supper)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was our first experience leading a 4-day trip with our Youth. They were a group of 15 — 5 boys, 10 girls. It was an inner-city trip, and we were learning about service. We had planned a time for them to serve each other. The boys were making an elaborate (okay, Sidekicks) meal for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Holding on, five times a day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Reflecting these weeks on “holding on and letting go” as part of Lenten devotionals, I notice yet again my urge to control everything.
Even in writing about choosing a personal focus for Lent, my journal records my unwillingness to let go — all of my Lent ideas involve holding on, working harder, trying again, pushing and [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Questionable Call?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ This is our game. This game is for world hockey supremacy.  We’ve heard the slogans.  Collectively we’ve displayed the pride, enjoyed the swagger in victory and felt the blows in defeat.  Perhaps in the quiet moments of a bathroom stall during intermission or after this year’s world junior’s tournament we’ve even [...]]]></description>

		<title>1923 (Immortality)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They say that everything on the internet is forever. Well, if that’s the case, one of my life’s goals is done! Which one, you ask? To have something I have done or said immortalized. If the internet’s data truly lasts forever, then there’s a lot that I’ve done that’s been immortalized. Every email I have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Robotic Warfare: Making This World Safe?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week Predator drones attacked in Helmand province in Southern Afghanistan and mistakenly killed civilians.  We don’t know how many.  The incidents are another warning like the messages of protest that Pakistanis have been trying to send Americans for the past few years.  Despite the much ballyhooed precision of these air crafts and their weapons, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Boiled Down</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It is encouraging at certain points to experience life, at least at that moment, as having been boiled down, clarified, distilled.  I am not sure there is much more to Christian life, which is to say life, than prayer and worship.  Perhaps there is only worship or only prayer or some third unknown [...]]]></description>
