Glad to hear you officially kicked ass for the Lord. :) And if you think you can handle....even enjoy...the life of a pastor, know that there's countless churches of all denominations who both need and want you, and would totally be blessed upon your arrival. But only if you want. No pressure or anything. *grin* @emily:

Thanks for asking. :) Easy. I'm right and everyone else is wrong. :D Seriously, I got too long-winded for a comment not to mention thinking that this needed its own thread. See my <a href="http://lrs.moonstar.com/blog/2007/11/14/depricate-the-old-testament/" rel="nofollow"><i>Deprecate the Old Testament?</i></a> post. How do I square it? Thanks for asking. :)

"All scripture is God-breathed", etc, etc. I have never come across a Christian who hold this view.

I am honored you would address me and my writings in this way. You are correct: I was graduated from fundamentalist SBC Bible college and I am going to be graduated from a moderate Baptist seminary this December. I look forward to a more free and open context of ministry as I relocate to Ohio. Thank you again for the encouragement and support. I will not be forgetting my time at the hospital. P.S. You would be interested to know that I won the Student Preaching Award for Truett Seminary. I find it the height of irony that a former fundy woman won the preaching award. Today I preached for a chapel service--the first time I have ever preached in a church setting. I cannot describe the joy and fulfillment. It was wonderful. I am so blessed.

In my humble-yet-strongly-held opinion, of course. *cough* Don’t be greedy, you already have at least one decently bright light in your pulpit. :) If she came to Farmvegas, there’s another church in-town that unfortunately just lost a bright light and had it replaced with lip-service.
