SERVICE BULLETIN

MORSEL FOR MEDITATION

The most powerful alarm clock is purpose. Build a life worth living and your passion will wake you up before any alarm.

-Unknown

Let your old age be childlike, and your childhood like old age; that is, so that neither may your wisdom be with pride, nor your humility without wisdom.

-Augustine

There is no portion of our time that is our time, and the rest God’s; there is no portion of money that is our money, and the rest God’s money. It is all His; He made it all, gives it all, and He has simply trusted it to us for His service. A servant has two purses, the master’s and his own, but we have only one.

-Adolphe Monod

Experiences Revisited

In the new science of the right and left brain, the former hemisphere is preoccupied with the big picture, surveying the vista from an altitude. I want to offer, from such a vantage point, a common observation about modern and post-modern thought. It is one that is prominent in the Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor’s A Secular Age, namely that the intellectual movement called ‘romanticism’ is a key factor in understand how the modern viewpoint. In counter-poise to rising rationalism, born of science, came a renewed emphasis on feeling, and in reaction of individualism a reclaiming of the corporate. (click to continue)

But I have had occasions where I can’t remember a name or the title of a book. It is sometimes embarrassing, especially if you and I are talking about someone whom we’ve both known for years and yours truly keeps trying to recall the name. (click to continue)
