Artuality: A Festival of Art and Life
The Story of Your Life, Part Nine
It happened one night, it was a dark and stormy night, it was the best of times, it was the worst of times. No matter how it begins, everyone has a story to live. This series looks at the story of the Christian life. Part Nine talks about The Road Back, or intigrating The Reward into your everyday life.
This video runs about 4 minutes.
The Story of Your Life, Part Eight
It happened one night, it was a dark and stormy night, it was the best of times, it was the worst of times. No matter how it begins, everyone has a story to live. This series looks at the story of the Christian life. Part Eight looks at the Reward earned after the Ordeal--when you've finally found what you've been looking for.
(You know a girl's gotta quote U2.)
Part Eight runs five and a half minutes.
Tell me this is a joke...
Campaign launched to liberate 'speling'
Also, I'll be starting a new monthly carnival (sorry, Mich) on my blog. I'll have details up next week!
Book Thoughts--Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis
I just finished Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis and needed to come get out some of these thoughts swirling around in my head. I started talking about it on Christianne's blog because I see parallels in the book to so many ares of the Christian life. It's one of those books that you could pick up a dozen times and get something different out of it because you're in a different place in your life every time.
Just another manic Monday
Some of the authors of the Bible used a writing technique called chiasm. It's where the outside statements work in parallel to each other, coming together and pointing to the center statement as the crux of it all. Like a cross. A1, B1, C1, D, C2, B2, A2.
Or sometimes the middle will be two statements reflecting each other (a D1 or D2).
I like writing techniques.

The Glory of Love
Then we got in a huge fight. Hurt and anger on all sides. But in the midst of this hurt and anger, my husband wrapped his arms around me and told me that he loves me. I told him not to hug me if he didn’t mean it. He held me tighter.
That night my husband showed me both sides of his love, the romance that makes me feel special, and the unconditional love that holds me close even when we have both said hurtful things.

what's keeping me up at night
about me
It is important that you know that my middle name is Anne (spelled with an "e"). It is my mother's middle name and my grandmother's middle name. It is the name of my favorite character, Anne of Green Gables. I want to be Anne of Green Gables, red hair and all. When not blogging, I love twirling and dancing to my favorite music on our smooth concrete floor.
