Ah well, mine's still new, and I guess there are some benefits to that :). I think your reaction Kieth is very reasonable.Jc_Freak:http://www.blogger.com/profile/14780031497091443526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-28842407986112067892008-10-11T04:53:00.000-04:002008-10-11T04:53:00.000-04:00Hi Sandy,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the encouraging words.<BR/><BR/>Hi Travelah,<BR/><BR/>There wasn't any problem with him (or you) leaving a blog address in his sig. If his comment had actually had anything to do with my post and he'd actually had anything to say, I'd have left it up. But you're right--it's no big deal. Thanks for stopping by.Keith Schooleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04078256877683382439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-45815429056990231452008-10-10T23:54:00.000-04:002008-10-10T23:54:00.000-04:00I've been hit by him twice but deleted it. I would not let it bother you much. It is fairly common. By the same token I usually leave my blog address in my signature when leaving comments so I cannot be too hard on him although the invitation to come learn great things at his website was somewhat pretentious.<BR/><BR/>Blessings in Christ<BR/>Travtravelahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09176117869461110213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-81562201596215659992008-10-09T07:36:00.000-04:002008-10-09T07:36:00.000-04:00Keith,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for checking out my blog and for leaving a comment. <BR/><BR/>I just wanted to say that, although I don't know the particulars of your current longer-than-expected break from ministry or nature of the specific voices you have been hearing, I do know one thing for sure:<BR/><BR/>"you will never be used again" and "you've blown it somehow" are not consistent with God's character or His Word.<BR/><BR/>I think you know that...but sometimes you just need another voice to confirm the Truth.<BR/><BR/>BTW, I've browsed your blog a bit and I think it's fabulous. It's hard to find good theological blogs...well-balanced, well-written and conversational. The "theological" ones are often so stuffy, it's hard to believe a real person is writing. The "charismatic" ones are so fluffy and flighty, it's hard to gleen anything substantial. True in life as well...why should I expect anything less in cyberspace?<BR/><BR/>Just wanted to encourage you to pursue with great passion the God who called you to ministry. And the "ministry" will naturally flow from that. Again...something you know, but I just wanted to reaffirm.<BR/><BR/>I'll be back!<BR/>Sandy Cooper<BR/>www.godpseakstoday.blogspot.comSandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03382966038522662787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-31710784129126480192008-10-09T00:59:00.000-04:002008-10-09T00:59:00.000-04:00Hi Sandy. Welcome!<BR/><BR/>No worries. Sorry my cranky little rant caught you off-guard. No, you <I>interacted</I> with my post, and then suggested that I might be interested in your blog. That's a totally different thing, and completely acceptable. I'm glad you stopped by, and I appreciate the kind comments.Keith Schooleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04078256877683382439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-77258072085305701462008-10-08T22:35:00.000-04:002008-10-08T22:35:00.000-04:00Oops!! I just left a comment on an old post you did on hearing God's voice inviting you to come to my blog! I promise I'm NOT a spammer. I'm on your side! I just thought you'd enjoy browsing my blog. Hope I didn't offend!<BR/><BR/>Blessings!<BR/>Sandy CooperSandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03382966038522662787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-13854387103898704692008-10-07T16:27:00.000-04:002008-10-07T16:27:00.000-04:00Well, I thoroughly disagree, of course, and I want to take the opportunity to spam you with copius links to my own blog site, naturally, and I want you to read every post from beginning to end before coming to a conclusion. You must keep an open mind, of course. And if you need any body parts enlargened or reduced, please come back again.<BR/><BR/>Because nothing says great conversationalist like drive by link-littering.<BR/><BR/>:: sigh ::<BR/><BR/>Most of the time, bloggers just don't get the medium.<BR/><BR/>Rich<BR/><A HREF="http://tatumweb.com/blog/" REL="nofollow">BlogRodent</A>Rich Tatumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18290320244688616885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-54398063520877249252008-10-07T09:12:00.000-04:002008-10-07T09:12:00.000-04:00Speaking of that . . . It used to bug me to no end that Calvinists on campus would constantly come up to me and challenge Arminianism (I never, ever approached them, to challenge them).<BR/><BR/>And then I had an epiphany! Perhaps some of them challenge me because they find the system to be a variable threat to their system. Perhaps there is some thing(s) about Calvinism which does not sit well with them, and they challenge me as a result.<BR/><BR/>I mean, c'mon . . . I don't challenge them because I don't find their system to be a threat.<BR/><BR/>Just some meandering . . .William Birchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09756456902262174536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18950992.post-14107922898047524242008-10-07T00:48:00.000-04:002008-10-07T00:48:00.000-04:00I guess I'm in good company.
