Not what I expected...

These words from St. Paul have thrown me for a loop as I ponder their implication for my theology of the church. Ephesians 3:8-10 "Although I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given to me to bring the Gentiles the news of the boundless riches of Christ, and to make everyone see what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things; so that through the church the wisdom of God in its rich variety might now be made known to the rules and authorities in the heavenly places." This last sentence caught me off guard, I must admit. It is stunning in its simplicity and power, and has a profound message for Christians everywhere. I really don't know what to say about it. What about you?

I don't always comment, but I do read and regularly check your blog. Perhaps your next blog can be on why you have chosen to be a vegetarian, and what are are/are not including in your diet (i.e. dairy products? eggs?). Looking forward to it...
