Did Paul make Christian tents?!

Bemused - that I certainly am. Seriously, was Paul making Christian tents? I mean, did he smear them with the Ichthus , the cross and the like, or did he forego them to favour market appeal? Many Christians today (including myself) search for the Christian element in life. We listen to Christian music, read Christian books, listen to Christian speakers, why, we even have Christian bumper stickers and such. In reality, how Christian do these Christian articles make us? Let's stop and consider for a moment... How far are we gonna take it? Stop buying bread from the baker cos that's where the heathens buy it? Stop getting our hair cut from our barber cos that's where the people-of-the-world get their hair cut? Really... We work in the same offices as the people of this world. We utilise the same public services - telecom, transport, utility services - as the people of this world do. We are aliens - that goes without saying. But we are supposed to be in this world.... It...

He's back... And how!!!

My bro is finally back from the UK. He got back last week, actually... And how!!! With a nice shaggy haircut (or the lack of it!) and completely clean-shaven face... And full of stories of how the service people had messed up almost everything on his trip....... Noone survived the onslaught of thecomputersam, I tell you - Dominoes Pizza UK, TGIF's UK, HSBC UK, KLM Airlines Amsterdam.... Ain't that enough? And he came back with an armload of CCM (Christian Music) CDs which rock (Mostly cos I asked him to get these! ;) ) Anyways, he's back. And he's back to occupying half the house. Feels good. Was good when he was away, is good now that he's back. I think that sums it all up. Apart from him coming back, here's what's been happening - I've not met any of ma friends over the past coupla weekends - ever since I got back from my trip to Mysore-Ooty-Madras.... Dunno why. Just never got down to it. And ma church-going is taking a back seat too. Need to get that...
