The weekend ended too quickly. Friday involved a trip to a restaurant to see a tribute band play Beatles music. On Saturday, a family friend from the past came to visit which proved to be too short. We had a wonderful time catching up.

It's monday. It is approaching 90 degrees outside. I am not ready for the unbearable hot weather in this un-airconditioned apartment.

It is almost time for me to head out to work.

The church, in the creative area and in others, will get nowhere until it realizes that Christianity is itself its own standard, and is a freeing experience, not an ideological bondage, and that it has to similarities, either with the industrial utilitarianism of the nineteenth century or the reaction to it in the present-day form of socialism, which is a sort of watered down combination of many leftover nineteenth and twentieth century ideological attempts at rebellion which have gone nowhere, and often have produced terrible inhumanities.

This is from Franky Schaeffer's book, Addicted to Mediocrity, which overall feels more like reading a college research paper than a good book, but has some good points nonetheless.

More to come in a bit on this. I have to run out to work.....
