    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    I have spent some time learning about much that has been discussed here.....so many things mentioned I don't understand or know about, so it actually encourages me to read and dig. First off, I briefly learned about the desert mothers and fathers. although the history is fascinating, there...

    Here I thought all along that the fear of God is the beginning of all Wisdom but you must have that market cornered already.

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    Wow....you painted a whole lot of people with the same brush in that rant! The fact of the matter remains that without an absolute standard of truth, the Spirit of truth is what? Whatever we want? The truth of scientology? The truth of Islam? Judaism? Christianity? Which is it? What is the...

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    All that you claim is correct because men created their own systems of belief for their own greedy purposes because Christ crucified was never enough and it still isn't., so there is really nothing new under the sun.

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    Maybe I am?!?! Lol. It just seems like a practice that is certainly tied to pagan belief systems (maybe not yours), but because we differ on the authority of the scriptures, My skepticism may seem peculiar to you. I guess I am just not completely convinced of its biblical relevance and believe...

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    Prayer is effortless.....I simply talk to God while Driving, walking, silence....any time....truly, it's just part of my everyday life. It's like breathing...I don't think about it, I don't work at it, I don't try to find a perfect sentence or words and studying His word is like glue to my...

    A surrendered will is a vehicle in which Christ is met deeply also and it is scriptural :)

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    Well, do you use an 8 track tape player to entertain your current audience? We change with the times and communicate accordingly. 8 tracks were used for a different time and different place to accomplish the same goals. There's no need for 8 tracks anymore because the upgrades are enough. I...

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    So, if I find a new way to express love to someone does it change what love is? Love never changes. The means by which I express it may change, but love is love. My relationship with Christ is not contingent on methods of spiritual disciplines that I must implement to access Him, if it were, I...

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    And with that being said, I must also add, That just because I believe in the authority of scriptures, does not mean that I am blind to the manipulation and abusive tendencies portrayed by the men holding that book. It's sometimes hard not to throw the baby out with the bath water, but just...

    What is Contemplative Christianity?

    Jesus was the full and complete manifestation of God. Although the word of God was given and received differently throughout time, the authority of Gods word never changed because God never changes. God has revealed Himself to mankind through different "vehicles", but the message was always the...
