Nothing New: Bedrock Theology

Introduction

Welcome to “Nothing New.” The goal of my blog in the past has been to stimulate discussion about all things related to CBC, the Christian life, and the world at large. But it has recently been hijacked by my cancer and treatment. This means I have to eat some crow (which I hate) because early on I boldly claimed I would not allow my condition to take center stage in my life.

But it is taking center stage on my blog – for a while. I am rather torn about this development. I am uncomfortable making this all about me – because it’s not. It is strangely therapeutic for me to blog about this, however, and I cannot express even a fraction of my appreciation for everyone who reads and leaves their funny, weird, and /or encouraging words in comments and emails.

So please join with me in dialogue. I always look forward to reading your comments. (If you'd like to follow my cancer journey from day 1, please go to my post on 6/25/08 - Life Takes Guts - in the archives and follow the posts upwards from there.)

Sorry for the delay in posting... This has been the roughest week in my treatment so far - mostly because of the fatigue that I mentioned in my last post.

But I'm hanging in there. And I'm reminding myself of three foundational truths....

(1) God is good - He always has been.
(2) God is in control - He always is.
(3) God loves me - He always will.

That's good stuff - even if you don't have cancer, right?
