This website is about the value of love, spirituality, the potential of the mind-body connection and the connection with all things. These are my daily thoughts about my life, my feelings, and my spiritual journey. I post these "Daily Journals" on a regular basis, so please come back often to read my latest posting.

A Loving God
I went to the movie “God’s Not Dead” today and found that the movie did a very good job of depicting the joy of encountering a loving God and it also did a reasonable job of addressing questions such as why God would allow such earthly problems as Alzheimer’s, premature death and cancer. However, the movie was also a bit to strongly Christian for my tastes, emphasizing the importance of believing in a certain way and that it is possible for God to be disturbed in some way by free will and some of the choices we humans make. Basically, giving God some human characteristics. The God that I have encountered is an unconditionally loving force/power that seems to observe and appreciate the choices that we make in much the same way that a loving parent would do with a child. Personally, I have made several negative choices with no hint of disturbing God in any way.
