@skredder Oh my word I’m so sorry! I think I figured out the problem, but then I started beta reading Seekjustice’s book (which has a deadline I’m trying super hard to meet). I really wanna finish it; but would it be okay if I finish reading Seekjustice’s then hop right to yours? (since there’s a deadline).

@seekjustice

…so let’s see if I can do a really short post about the headcovering thing.

Quick (hopefully) answer is: We believe the headcovering referenced there is a literal headcovering, not the hair, and that the hair is used as a symbol, but an additional headcovering is what is expected by the chapter.  From the context, we think that…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, to clarify, in the last post I said I don’t think God’s commandments change depending on the culture you live in.  I do, however, know that they are often understood differently depending on the culture.  I also believe that, as it says in Romans 14, what is a sin for some may not be a sin for others since even with a literal i…[Read more]

@seekjustice Ooh, not afraid of controversial subjects, are we? 😛

So, I don’t believe commandments change with cultures.  I think you’re remembering that I said we understand some parts of the Bible in a different way because of the Middle Eastern background, but what I meant was that we understand some of the things in the Bible which are…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha, so that’s why you listed him as a fantasy/allegory author.  I’ve read about ten or twelve of his romance novels. 😛

But anyway, my mom had read them as a teenager, so when I ran out of books in the library, and I was about fifteen or sixteen, she said I was old enough to read them.  There wasn’t much “mush” in them, as they w…[Read more]

@seekjustice Basically, I was going to ask, How much have you read of George MacDonald?  I know you’ve read The Princess and the Goblins. 😉

@seekjustice Oh, I am so sorry!  That is awful.  Yes, I will pray.

@seekjustice You’re probably not up anymore, but I just wanted to say… “Whoops!” 😛  Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply you’d said anything I disagreed with in your last post.  I’m pretty sure we agree on the topic.  (I said “inspired” by your post, not “incited” by the post! 😉 😛 )

Anyway, whenever you get this, I hope you’re reassured that th…[Read more]

@seekjustice oh that’s terrible! I will be praying for strength and comfort for all the people affected by this.

@seekjustice Hello?  I just remembered that it’s Sunday for you, but I was thinking of talking about theology anyway, inspired by your latest blog post… 😉

@seekjustice @rochellaine

I’m going to leave for now, give my eyes a rest after reading for hours. 🙂 I might be on later though. Bye!

@rochellaine *sighs* I wish I could grow my hair long enough to have to get it cut. 😛

@seekjustice

I know I’ve watched one of Jane’s Q&A videos more than once just to listen to her accent. 🙂

Ooh, yes a video would be AWESOME! 😀

@rochellaine

@seekjustice Yup, Rochellaine and I could show you the country. 😉 (and I personally would love to hear your accent)

@jenwriter17 😀

I’ve never cut my hair much above my waist.  But I can imagine how horrified I’d be if I somehow had to get it cut above my ears, like Chessy!  I think the very shortest I could ever stand would have to be several inches below my shoulders, but I much prefer it long.

@seekjustice 😛  Yeah, on the first video Jane Maree posted, I…[Read more]

@rochellaine Yes, and I was thinking about you the whole time! 😀

Cutting hair is just painful to me, especially since it takes forever for my hair to grow. But yeah, they could’ve given Chessy a bit longer haircut. 🙂

@jenwriter17 So you already got through the Jonas visit scene! 😀

Oh yes, the haircut part is horrible.  I mean, if they could have just cut it below her ears!  But no, she got this horrible, scary haircut, and all her beautiful long hair is gone. 🙁

@seekjustice Wait till you come to America, then you can write an experience-inspired book ab…[Read more]

@seekjustice yeah sometimes I get set in one genre and can’t think outside of that. 🙂 For me right now, I can’t think outside of sci-fi/futuristic.

@rochellaine Hehe, yeah…we have these few different show series we just cycle through constantly, ’cause it’s hard for us to find a family-friendly show nowadays.

I’m reading the part where Chessy just escaped after being sentenced to hard labor. And if I remember correctly, Quillon is taking her to get her hair cut. That was a painful part of…[Read more]

@seekjustice Yup!  I was tired.  Fell asleep a little after twelve. 😉

@jenwriter17 What part of Stars are you at now?

You’ve watched the whole series several times?!!  There are fourteen seasons!  I’ve only seen a few episodes. 😛
