BGEA: September 2: I should've done something else. Did I fail to listen to God when I was choosing my career?

BGEA: September 2: I should've done something else. Did I fail to listen to God when I was choosing my career?: "This week was Labor Day in the United States -- a special day when we honor all those who've made our nation great through their work. We sometimes see work as a burden (and it can be), but our work is important to God; even in the Garden of Eden God gave Adam work to do (see Genesis 2:15). Work gives dignity and meaning to our lives, and helps us make the world a better place."

Today, "I Have a Dream" stands alongside the Declaration of Independence and the Gettysburg Address as possibly the most significant piece of American rhetoric known to the world. However, it's become pretty common over the past few decades for those of us who regularly opine on King's legacy to take a contrarian stance and push back against the notion that "I Have a Dream" was his defining statement to the world."

Pocket : Why We Call God 'Father': "For at least the past 40 years, traditional language for God has come under fire. While formal feminist theologians disagree about what language to use instead, they are unanimous that masculine words for God, especially Father, must be expunged from our theological vocabulary. For the church to be inclusive, they argue, it must replace man-centered language with language that accounts for both male and female. Furthermore, since our human words cannot adequately portray God's fullness, no single characterization will suffice. God could be addressed as father and/or mother in order to bring out his multifaceted nature."
