Re: Question for Evangelicals
some great contributions from everybody. I especially liked the story of the Presbyterians who replaced the stained windows with Jesus images but then gave those back to the Baptists. I'm going to ask my friend who was a builder what he would have done in that situation, assuming he had a choice. W...

Re: Question for Evangelicals
Jerz, did ya’ll ever ride in cars around the neighborhood at the beginning of VBS honking your horns and yelling out the windows, “Come to vacation Bible school!” Maybe that was just a Methodist thing. I think the cars may have been decorated too. Did your church have a “cry room?” A place you could...

Re: Question for Evangelicals
that's a nice chapel, Jersey Girl. I like the windows a lot. LDS chapels literally have no class. they are cinder block bomb-shelters with horrible square windows. I like the simplicity and the clean lines. I find the flag near the pulpit jarring. Was it there when you were a kid. It’s been so long...

Re: Question for Evangelicals
I’ve often heard it said that Jesus paid for our sins on the cross and since he is no longer there and atonement was accomplished at the cross, and since Jesus has ascended to heaven, that it is more appropriate to have an empty cross. That does make some sense but what about this? There was one ye...

Re: Question for Evangelicals
For what it is worth, I’ve always thought of Jesus looking like a Jewish guy. Most of the depictions I’ve seen of Jesus in evangelical churches were mostly in stained glass. I suppose I’ve seen some artists renderings ofJesus in Bibles with pictures in it. In those, he was not white, but not particu...

Re: Life is Good!!!
You can get lots of washing, drying, and folding done between chapters. I love seeing you happy.

Re: Murder among the Mormons
I found myself, as I watched it, counting up how old some of you guys were when this happened.

Cutting down *all* the trees in your yard
Our next door neighbor has cut down all the mature trees in his yard, with the last one, a beautiful tree, on the chopping block right now.
Can someone tell me what possesses someone to cut down *all* the trees in their yard?
