INTRODUCTION
(Please read. We want you
happy, not frustrated.)
Each LRC Mini Teaching is
a skeleton with some meat on it. It is part of our experience and
prayerful insights. The teachings do not claim to be infallible; feel free
to disagree. If they are meaningful to you, give them life within
yourself. If they are not, discard
them quickly.
Should you find a teaching
particularly meaningful, let the Lord touch your heart during your quiet time
with Him. Watch Him customize the teaching for your needs by adding meat
in just the right places.
One trained in theology and
philosophy may choose to fight these Mini Teachings. Waving the banner:
“Always Distinguish,” they will be full of “Yes, buts….” These
Mini Teachings are just that—mere snippets, not exhaustive treatments, a few
facets of a many-faceted diamond. If, because of your training, you become
distracted or angry by a partial treatment, our loving suggestion is: Please do
God and yourself a favor; don’t read these Minis.
These Minis do not come in a
consciously-planned order. Each came to mind, were typed and here they
are. Nothing more. Please do not try to detect some secret, hidden
reason for their placement. You have here a buffet, not a full-course
meal. So, teachings may be out of logical sequence—a mini on preparation
for prayer may come long after other more advanced forms of prayer are
mentioned. In community teachings we try to offer full-course meals.
However, we offer no excuses here. bj
