		<description><![CDATA[This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they&#8217;re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I always thought I had a pretty good handshake. A simple forward thrust and vertical pump is what I was taught by my Dad who told me “a good man has a good handshake.” I met a pastor with a “Baptist handshake” (I know that this is an unfair caricature) where my welcoming hand was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Depression is a word to describe feeling bad or frustrated or sad or fed up or mad and all kinds of other emotions and circumstances. Marriages get depressed and so do churches and businesses. Cities get depressed as when the Canucks lost the final game of the Stanley Cup (June 15, 2011) and hooligans rampage.

		<description><![CDATA[Of course you have been. Family Systems Theory considers three indicators of “stuckness.” The first indicator is like tire-spinning, the trying experience when you (or a committee) keep trying harder and predictably producing banal results. Trying to stand up is a lot more difficult than standing up. A second stuckness is when one thinks in [...]]]></description>

Our lonely hearts cry out, &#8216;Please hold me, touch me, speak to me, pay attention to me.&#8217; But soon we discover that the person we expect to take our loneliness away cannot give us what we ask [...]]]></description>

Don&#8217;t give the devil that kind of foothold in your life.” (Ephesians 4:26-27, The Message) Do you know what? There is no need to mess with your [...]]]></description>
