Incoming metaphor! Stop, drop, and roll.
I’ve only entered two other races in my short “athletic” career. I completed a half-marathon a couple summers ago which turned out to be a miserable experience due to ridiculously hot weather that slowed me to a pace considered competitive only among potato bugs. By the time I crossed the [...]

Just Around the Bend
April 26, 2008
This weekend I’m in Monterey Bay for the Big Sur International Marathon and no, I’m not putting 26.2 miles on these precious piddy-pats of mine, particularly since the route follows Hwy 101 along the coast between Big Sur and Carmel making for one ridiculously hilly course. Instead I’m going to be sashaying my sweet little [...]

What I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before The Big Reveal, 2
April 20, 2008
Okay . . . . here’s the last four from me.
You can’t predict how people will respond when you come out to them. People can surprise you with their responses either way, and either way you have no control over people’s feelings or reactions. Everyone wants to protect the people they love from being upset [...]
What I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before the Big Reveal, Part 1
April 19, 2008
Before I jump into some general thought around the whole wild and wacky coming out process, I want to be really clear that I’m not suggesting you come out . . .
If you live anywhere in the world where coming out would jeopardize your physical safety or freedom.
If you’re a queer youth or young adult [...]
Remarkably Unsuccessful
April 18, 2008
My experience in coming out to my parents was best described by one of the participants interviewed in the documentary For the Bible Tells Me So. When she was asked how it was when she came out to her mother she paused and then with a thoughtful look and a smile responded, “It was remarkably [...]
We Interrupt Our Regularly Scheduled Blogging For A Grace Break
April 17, 2008
For several months I’ve been following a blog by John Shore called Suddenly Christian. John won me over to his blog with his incredibly quirky sense of humor but in short order it was his heart for God that had me jonesin’ for his newest entries.
Yesterday I was working away on an upcoming entry that [...]

A Survey Question
April 15, 2008
I want to get your input on something so feel free to tell me what you think.
I was wondering if there would be any benefit to me occasionally providing an audio track of me reading some of my blog entries. The way it would look is that the blog entry would be posted like usual [...]
Lazarus Comes Out: The Aftermath
April 15, 2008
Oh. I forgot one widdle biddy piece of the story. In John 11 the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead plays all the way out from sickness to death to grave to new life. The chapter ends with the Sanhedrin gathering to discuss the problem of Jesus and ultimately determining to take his [...]
