With Dora! On Dora's Christian experience, and John gives his testimony. On not celebrating holidays (Easter, for instance). On John's research into the All Saved Freak Band and relating some of Joe Markko's tragic life experience. Some of Dora's experiences while caring for her husband in the nursing home. John sings a song! [sorry for technical difficulty with Dora's mic being off!] On the power of the Spirit to heal the heart from within. Honoring our leaders.

With Dora! Suffering in the world and Corrie Ten Boom's testimony when meeting the prison guard after many years. On God's grace as a tremendous resource. God's expectation/requirement that we trust in Him. The gift of God's Son. God's standard being as high as it ever was, for else our salvation would not result in such a level. God's struggle is to bring us into His full salvation. The story of Nate Saint (and Jim Elliott) and Saint's children among the Auca. Various testimonies. On books "When Someday Comes" and "Fortney Road" re: the All Saved Freak Band and Glenn Schwartz. On the voice that rises up to bring us into controversy with God. Romans 5:10: "saved BY HIS LIFE".

John's trying to summon the Kraken based on Psalm 42:7. Meeting a woman praying at Tappan Square. Finney's pelagianism in the fall of Calvinism (?). Malcolm X's transition from Garveyism to the multiculturalistic embrace of Islam. Why the need to attack straw men? Be persistent for truth! John Gribbin and Fred Hoyle feeling like the universe is a "put-up job". Lee Smolin's thought that black holes are "umbilical cords" to other universes, and Gribbin saying why not, then, designer universes by those who can create black holes? Does our mind, at the level it operates, even make sense in light of science? Its LOVE, says John.

Morgellons Disease and chemtrails, the movie "Boyhood," on newspaper article on how fathers want their daughters to be independent, but not their wives. Feminism and motherhood. A tongue-in-cheek (?) consideration that mothers should have say in whether their children live or not both after AND before birth. On a workshop at WOBC on the pillars of white male supremacy.

With Dave and Olvin. The Tabernacle in the wilderness and Christ being Emanuel. The Israelites in the wilderness. Presenting our members (Romans 6). Identifying with what culture? Malcolm X and Marcus Garvey. The blending in the church life.

Science's rejection of "miracles" etc., Charles Finney and Oberlin, Boltzmann brains?, Penrose's rejection of the idea of "self-aware" binary systems, the multiverse vs. design, science as a system that seeks explanations that exclude God, SETI and an experiment, the latent powers of the soul, and the romance that awaits for each of us personally and corporately

Christ the prototype and the reality of all the sacrifices. The end-result of the process. Believing and the forgiveness of sins.

The male-female correspondence and feminism. Submission to one another and to God's arrangement.
