You put it so well. Yes, there is ...Cathy, exactly! You put it so well. Yes, there is a chasm, at least in my experience. I don't often meet someone who relates to this. We still attend a So Bapt church, and we still minister in SBC's. I think people sense life and realness in us and what we say, but I can't honestly say it's reciprocal. Our kids have experienced this also and we have rich fellowship with them. That's something we're so grateful for. Richard Rohr explains it kind of like reaching adulthood in your Christianity. Thanks for writing. I always enjoy and appreciate your comments.

And something insi...I just discovered Richard Rohr. And something inside me is really excited that you've discovered him too. <br /><br />As I read his works, my soul resonates. But all of my Southern Baptist background leaves me afraid. <br /><br />There is a wide chasm between what it takes to be counted socio-politically as a Christian and the God I know in my heart. The thing I love about reading Richard Rohr is that he is far more articulate than I am about illustrating the chasm.Cathy_Hhttp://randomcathy.comnoreply@blogger.com
