Disclaimer
This site makes no claim to authority, purity
of doctrine or to official sanction. It contains the musings of a private
citizen who happens to be Christian. It is not a description of The Way,
The Truth, and The Life, but it does contain hints of the Way I have been
led to walk, the Truth I have been given to see, and the Life it is my
measure to live. It is the work of a contemplative, but one who does not
live outside the church or have overweening trust in her own opinion above
that of others. It is the work of someone whose spiritual struggle takes
place in the marketplace, and whose daily life is enough fuel for prayer
to satisfy anyone.
It doesn't claim to explain, describe,
or prescribe all that is necessary for the whole christian life,
or even the basics necessary to everyone.
It is a simple enough offering: the
equivalent, I hope, of something which used to be common, when I was young.
An open, apparently empty church by the road side. A place to call in,
visit with God, maybe to read, and to disagree a little, but above all,
it is a place in which to think one's own thoughts, pray one's own prayers
privately, and to leave, refreshed.
