I've received a fair few emails from readers wanting to know more about me. I'll answer some of the most common &/or most intriguing questions here.
Who are you?
I'm a Believer. A mother & a wife. A trained writer & an obsessive traveler.
Your language is worldly, unbecoming and displeasing.
For me, words are just words. They are neither good nor bad; they are not weighted in terms of righteousness. What distinguishes crap from shit? Why is one "bad" and the other "acceptable"? It doesn't make any sense and the God I serve isn't as pedantic as to get wound up about which I use. A curse is a damnation; a curse condemns. The words we readily deem as being "curse" worse don't really do this and shouldn't be regarded as being bad. Whether you find my language unbecoming, unladylike or displeasing is a matter of personal taste.
Why is this blog anonymous? Can we trust you?
The last thing I want is for something to come between me & the message that I'm trying to convey. I want people to experience another type of Christianity. One that I enjoy & I fear that by disclosing my identity, that could mar that. I am truthful with this blog but I am also guarded to protect the identifies of myself and my family. That doesn't make me less trustworthy, I hope.
What's your testimony?
I grew up in churches, although I didn't accept Christ as my personal Lord and Savior until I was 12. I've always been a bit more ... accepting of others and a fan and follower of the post modernist movement. My line of thinking is more akin to this movement and it's the way that I've approached Christianity, too. For me, God and religion are personal. I don't think there are wrong and right ways to serve when the edifying of and the service of God is what the goal is. Sometimes, the end justifies the means.
