Comment Code of Conduct
I will express myself with civility, courtesy, and respect for every member of this online community, especially toward those with whom I disagree—even if I feel disrespected by them. (Romans 12:17-21)
I will express my disagreements with other community members' ideas without insulting, mocking, or slandering them personally. (Matthew 5:22)
I will not exaggerate others' beliefs nor make unfounded prejudicial assumptions based on labels, categories, or stereotypes. I will always extend the benefit of the doubt. (Ephesians 4:29)
I understand that comments reported as abusive are reviewed by the Blog Owner and are subject to removal. Repeat offenders will be blocked from making further comments. (Proverbs 18:7)
(With thanks to Sojourners)
Oh that is great. Prayers and good wishes for your sermon prep! I know it will turn out great. And one of these days I will actually get myself down there.
ReplyDeleteThe cartoon is priceless, I may have to show it to my boss!
Sometimes even the choir has to hear the same old stuff over and over again before it REALLY sinks in.
ReplyDeleteMore relevant to a couple of posts back -- Rabbi Ben Zoma used to say (about 2000 yrs ago), "Who is wise? One who learns from everybody." You seem to be able to do that, whether your teacher is a mother heron or a Delmarva crabber.
Thanks, DeanB. I have found that I learn best by keeping my ears open, my mouth shut, and my mind engaged.
