bits of things and non-things: February 2009
http://mitsuoh.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Bits of things and non-things. Test all things; hold fast that which is good." 1 thessalonians 5:21. Monday, February 9, 2009. God I realized that we can actually experience God directly when we communally wait upon the scriptures just like we wait upon him. We didn't come to any glorious revelations about the psalm that night, but that was okay. We just sat with it, and we found ourselves in a prayerful state that was sweeter than anything we could have done to wrangle that thing into making sense.

Bits of things and non-things. Test all things; hold fast that which is good." 1 thessalonians 5:21. Friday, January 29, 2010. Just thought I'd share. One night at the co-op, a chance encounter of some very politicized Palestinians (and their activist American cohorts) exploded in the kitchen. One guy's criticism of some Palestinian politicians brought down angry accusations of siding with Israel, and it soon devolved into a venomous screaming match. If only that happened more often, you know? Growing To...

bits of things and non-things: December 2008

Bits of things and non-things. Test all things; hold fast that which is good." 1 thessalonians 5:21. Monday, December 29, 2008. What I think about Plainness, for now. So, I have been led to adopt Plain dress, at least for now (I have no idea what will happen next year, or even tomorrow for that matter). . I was made aware of The New Plain among Quakers when I randomly came across Quaker Jane’s website ( http:/ www.quakerjane.com. But then, some time mid-October, I was hit. . I removed my watch and belt...

bits of things and non-things: A letter from a friend
http://mitsuoh.blogspot.com/2010/10/letter-from-friend.html
Bits of things and non-things. Test all things; hold fast that which is good." 1 thessalonians 5:21. Friday, October 1, 2010. A letter from a friend. Whilst typing up hundreds of pages of notes from my boss I stumbled across this quote on aspen trees in myths, which called to mind a conversation we had about how awesome Aspen trees are. Aspens were thought to tremble because they had the most acute hearing and were moving in response to a divine calling.". I hope that all is well with you in Providence!

bits of things and non-things: June 2009
http://mitsuoh.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Bits of things and non-things. Test all things; hold fast that which is good." 1 thessalonians 5:21. Friday, June 5, 2009. Practice: Share with someone who is homeless or hungry. . By sharing, I don’t mean simply giving, as in giving away money. . Handing someone pocket change is one thing, but offering them your food is another. I went on a hitchhiking/backpacking trip in which my friend and I slept in the abandoned places of civilization and ate only what we could forage. . While we were standing o...

"God Would Kneel Down With Us": January 2010
http://godwouldkneeldown.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
God Would Kneel Down With Us". This is a blog to record my experiences around attending seminary (in preparation for entering pastoral ministry) as a young adult Quaker. Monday, January 11, 2010. So, over Christmas break I made the decision to go to Princeton Theological. I will be starting the three year MDiv program in the fall. Considerable discernment went into this decision (and a great deal of agonizing and loud moaning), and I feel that my decision is rightly ordered. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

God Would Kneel Down With Us". This is a blog to record my experiences around attending seminary (in preparation for entering pastoral ministry) as a young adult Quaker. Monday, July 26, 2010. The Count Down to Seminary. The true count down to seminary has begun. I graduated in May, and then I moved to a different part of the country for the summer, but now it is getting close to the time where I will head back to NY, and unpack my boxes, and repack my boxes, and move to a new chapter of my life. And bef...

"God Would Kneel Down With Us": The Million Dollar Question (or, "So What's Next for You Margaret?")

God Would Kneel Down With Us". This is a blog to record my experiences around attending seminary (in preparation for entering pastoral ministry) as a young adult Quaker. Wednesday, December 16, 2009. The Million Dollar Question (or, "So What's Next for You Margaret? I applied to Wesley Theological Seminary and Princeton Theological. And, you might very well wonder why. 2) Places That Are Only Really Suitable For People From One Denomination (I really can't go to a seminary that is only for Episcopalians).

God Would Kneel Down With Us". This is a blog to record my experiences around attending seminary (in preparation for entering pastoral ministry) as a young adult Quaker. Wednesday, April 7, 2010. So, the update . . . . More or less, I guess. It did receive top marks and I was please with its progression (the first draft was wretched). If you are interested in seeing the final (not wretched) paper, post a comment and I will send you a copy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). God Would Kneel Down". And so...
