This post definitely caught my eye. Confession: U know I went thru this phase once where I thought that anyone who was not ecstatic during music worship probably had a "dead" faith... sigh, that's why it's a called a journey I guess. I like how Brian McLaren in Generous Orthodoxy made parallels of Charismatics and Contemplatives. (I paraphrase here, from what I can remember) Where the common thread is the pursuit of joy. For the Charismatics it's in the extraordinary and Contemplatives its the joy in the ordinary things, in the fullness of meditation. On another tangent, there's always a socialisation aspect of conversion and joining a Christian community, and we pick up habits unconsciously. All the best in wrestling and working out what "commitment" involves. It can be very beautiful... God bless Hi there, interesting blog (my first visit). This post definitely caught my eye.

All the best in wrestling and working out what “commitment” involves. It can be very beautiful…

God bless

The imp thing is do you know God and does God knows you? Do you live a happy and a fulfilled life for God? Will they put these on your tombstone "she served God's purpose in her generation..." Cheers, Steven Charismatic is a man-made term.

The imp thing is do you know God and does God knows you?
Do you live a happy and a fulfilled life for God?
Will they put these on your tombstone “she served God’s purpose in her generation…”

Cheers,
Steven

It used to get me irritated when people spout Christianese at me, but now I'm more patient and just smile and try to divert the conversation to more interesting topics like ... the latest episode of Heroes.

Imperfect. I agree that there are some that tend to react as how this girl did, but I'd say a generalisation here is pretty unfair to all Charismatics.
