This is an open-comment theology blog where I will post various theological musings, mostly in sermon or essay form, for others to read and comment on. If what I say here interests you, you may want to check out some of my books. Feel free to criticize, to critique, to comment, but keep comments to the point and respectful. Many of these posts have been published elsewhere, but I wanted them collected and made available to a wider audience.

Giving To God
We have only this life to give to God, and so the loss of it is a genuine tragedy. Yet on the other side of death we have a God who waits to give forever back to us, and to share in the fruits of the labors of the divine. The impulse to extreme grief and extreme joy at the death of a loved one are very natural. Religion must make sense of that experience.
