I’m not really but I have to finish a math test and get dressed for Girls brigade. And time has elapsed so that I only have half an hour.

I did attempt to learn Greek once but it was from a college textbook. And I was twelve. I’ll look into that book though. It sounds good. It would just be really interesting to read the Bible…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’m literally falling asleep, but I can’t because I have to go out in an hour 🙁

I really wish I could read Greek. I mean, I have somewhere around five different translations of the Bible and they all say different things, which, in turn, can be interpreted different ways. Which is mostly what all these different people are arguing…[Read more]

@Rochellaine

😀 you’re welcome to go to  bed if you so desire (however I am half asleep as well and its  only mid afternoon)

Researching gender roles. Out of all the groups in the world, you’d think that Christians would be the best at agreeing. *sigh*

@rochellaine

Are you around today?

I’m assuming no one else will be, but if any of you are still awake, feel free to join me.

@ariel-ashira

Ah, no my dear Ariel. I only read the blurbs 😛

@rochellaine

A doctorate? Well… 😀 I truly do go along and read the blurbs of Christian romance novels. 😛 Its a fascinating and utterly useless hobby.

Sure! I’d be happy to pick this up again whenever you see fit. Goodnight!

@rochellaine

I read the blurbs 😛 I actually have read a few, never on purpose but usually because I’m promised an awesome retelling or medieval book…and it turns out to be a romance. and I’m too stubborn to stop reading half way through it (the only reason I ever stop reading a book is if I have moral problems with it. I just hate half…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I did know that most of the Amish/Mennonite population was around there, because all the Christian Amish fiction takes place, predominantly, in Pennsylvania. Also, ages ago I guessed that you lived in Pennsylvania, and I wasn’t that far wrong.

I’m not even sure if Australia has an Amish community. It certainly isn’t as public as America’s.

@sarah-anson

Why thank you. Its been on my mind a bit so I thought I’d discuss it.

@Rochellaine

Well, I guess if her husband just sees it as part of who she is, he’s less likely to want her to stop wearing it, so it sounds very effective to me 😛

No. No one at the church I go to wear any sort of covering and off the top of my head I can’t think of anyone else I know who would. I have some acquaintances who are devout Catholics…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I remember that sort of thing happening to me lately but I can’t remember why now. There was some reason I wanted to jump up and keep correcting the preacher 🙂

@rochellaine

Like I said, until I started reading the Bible for myself (rather than someone reading the Bible to me) I’d never heard the idea of wearing a headcovering. Since I was five I’ve attended a Baptist church and the issue was never addressed. In fact, today was really the first time I ever thought about it in depth. I personally don’t…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I like discussing controversial topics. 🙂 Especially the ones people skirt around for fear of offending someone. 😛

Yep, I understand what you’re talking about. I think a lot of Western culture has lost the original meanings of many parts of both the New and Old testaments just because we have such a limited understanding of…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Well, I know he was a minister of some kind but other than that I don’t really know anything about him, except that C S. Lewis liked him and his writing a lot. There was one book of his that I decided to steer clear of because of the fact that it dealt with Adam’s supposed first wife. However, since the books of his I’ve read don’t…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’ve read The Princess and the Goblins, The Princess and Curdie and The Light Princess, I know I read another book many years ago but I forget what it was. I’ve never been able to find any of his other ones.

@rochellaine

I didn’t really think I had done anything 🙂

However, I am very curious to know what you wanted to talk about.

@alia @rochellaine @clairec @catwing @jenwriter17

Guys, I’d really like your prayers at the moment. One of our little ponies is really sick and has to be put down. She has no been well for a while and she’s very old, so its not really a surprise, but it’s going to be hard on my family, especially my sister who’s been away for a bit and doesn’t…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oh dear…what have I done?

Sorry, we were in town a bit longer than usual today, but I’m happy to talk with you if you’re still around. Otherwise I’m happy to talk tomorrow.

@jenwriter17

Just know that I’m laughing at you 😛

I’d love to do a video one day, maybe for an end of the year sort of thing?

Bye!

@rochellaine

Haha 😛 I actually got my hair cut very short once when I donated 53cm for wigmaking, but even then it was just above above shoulders. That’s the shortest I’ve ever had my hair. 😀

I remember one time the KP staff did a video which Jane Maree was in and all the comments on her voice. To me though, she’s the only one without an…[Read more]
