some problems with the sidebar caused me to change the template and that is why the new look...
the lack of posts pretty much tells the story of a hectic week
I've been trying to prep my students this week for next weeks exam which is the writing of a paper on what they do or do not believe about God... my guess is that with all that reading, I'll have some blogs coming out of their musings
I am working through a book on marriage and here is a quote that I hope all blog readers can profit from...
"Even when you disagree with the point being made by your partner, you goal is to show respect for and validation of his or her perspective. That means waiting your turn and not making faces or looking bored. Showing real respect and honor to one another is the goal. You can disagree completely with your mate on a matter and still show respect. In fact, we are told in scripture to show respect no matter what (1 Peter 2:17). - Stanley, A Lasting Promise, p. 62
I think this an important thought... do you agree?
By the way, HAPPY MARCH!

I agree that showing respect is crucial. Showing respect for a marriage partner does not hurt feelings or demean. It allows the partner the freedom to maintain his unique identity/dignity. Then develops a deeper sense of communion, sharing, openness, growth in the marriage.--This spoken by one whose marriage failed & has thought seriously about the loss.
