Subject: [TruthTalk] Poetry, Literature, Imagination - Love of Language
Absent these stultification appears.
Where are the grand vistas of the poet? What a colossal error in
judgement to have ignored, even denigrated such!
Someone said of U2: 'they may be the
most important Christian cultural influencers since C. S. Lewis.' I
missed it. My loss. Gary's obvious love for/of Bob Dylan shines through
to us more imaginatively 'thick' onlookers. Debbie has graced TT with
the finest prose since it's inception.
Stories, folks! Bill's account of
the man he took into his home for two years. David adding a room onto
the house for the homeless. Izzy's block party, quilt making, meeting
GWB at a rally, going to a ball game, Judy's visit home (Australia),
her account of her granddaughter's battle with illness, Jonathan's
account of taking Noah (his son) for his first swimming lesson; John's
accounts of being a carpenter/theologian (where have we heard that
before?)
Ahhhh but has this ought to do with
our lives being his with Christ in God? Not much. Just everything!
