Now how in the world could someone like yourself, a single lady, get involved in Fellowship Church because of sports?APRIL: Well, I enjoy volleyball. I played with a company team out at Long Star Country Club which is where the church has been playing. One night, it was kind of bad weather and half of my team did not show up. So I had myself and one other girl to play a six-man team. You cant have other people who play in the same league sub in...more
These were young men. One said, I think the King James Version is the best. The other one said, I think the American Standard is the best. One chimed in, Well, its the Jerusalem Bible thats the best. Finally, they realized their old colleague, Dr. Jones, hadnt said a word. They all turned to him and said, Dr. Jones, what do you think is the best translation? The room was silent. In a very low voice he said, The Scriptures that my mom used,...more
I don't think we realize how much it affects us in a bad way spiritually when we don't feel well. When you don't feel well, you don't want to pray, you don't want to do things for other people, it's easier to be grouchy. It's important that we take care of the temple of God; it's his house. But you won't do it if you don't get to the point... You're either very wise and you're going to take care of yourself because you know if you don't, you'll get to the point where you do feel bad, and that obviously would be the best way to go but most of us don't do it until we get to the point where we don't have much choice. Joyce Meyer says whatever it is in your life -- if it's not feeling well, if it's frustration, if it's worry or a bad temper, you're going to have to come to the point where you're just going to have to say -- and I mean a quality decision: "I am not gonna live like this! I am not going to live like this! I am not going to spend my life going around the same dumb mountain over and over and over and over and over. Devil, hear this: I am not going to live like this!" Whoo!: I came to that point many, many, many years ago. Joyce Meyer says God began to teach me about grace...more

While Ive done some study on comparative religion, I found this course very instructive and Rev. Kythera Anns approach quite good, especially in the details. A good grasp of other faiths and religious systems is crucial for an interfaiith minister, and this course does a great jobI took this course at the same time that I took Philosophy of religion, and found that the two dovetail together nicely. Rev. Kythera gets into aspects of theology, philosophy, comparing and constrasting, and religious theory that make this course very instructive in the basic philosophy of religion, as well as different practices and beliefs in various faiths.I found several topics of particular interest. She makes an excellent case for the similarities of religions, regardless of cultural origin, based on statements from various sacred texts, and the resulting validity of interfaith practice and ministry. Her suggestions of ritual and ceremony are interesting as well.I enjoyed her discussion of esoterica, and was pleased to see the inclusion of Kabbalah, Hermeticism, Freemasonry and Rosicrucianism, which rarely get a mention in courses of this type, which often speak to the mystical side of Eastern...more
