Dissatisfied with "churchy" language and answers, a friend and I started an almost-weekly Bible study/discussion/prayer meeting. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Someday, I'll return to an organized church setting, and even now I still attend occasional services with friends or family, but what seemed like a desert has now become a garden, and I've learned as much from the quiet acts of worship and practical living-out of my faith as I ever did from the frenzy of church activities and socializing.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;Keanan Brand's last blog post..&lt;a href="http://adventuresinfiction.blogspot.com/2008/05/back-to-beginning_08.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;Back to the Beginning&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Keanan Brand</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 08 May 2008 04:54:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Retreat - Get a Handle on God&amp;#8217;s Design</title><link>http://www.goodwordediting.com/retreat-get-a-handle-on-gods-design/418/#comment-2831161</link><description>Very nice music. And I agree. It's hard for people to see this, though, at times. But that's where I live, even in Jesus.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ted Gossard's last blog post..&lt;a href="http://communityofjesus.blogspot.com/2008/05/stepping-stones-conversion-from-ll.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;"stepping stones - conversion" - from L.L.
