Where did “The Serenity Prayer” come from?
This article on the blog of Greg R. Taylor gets to the source of the famous “Serenity Prayer.”
A Little Exercise for Young Theologians
This short blog post by Greg R. Taylor reflects on his reading of a book from seminary titled, A Little Exercise for Young Theologians.
Steadfast Through Every Change
This post discusses the phrase, “Steadfast through every change” as an alternative for the idea that God never changes. I found the exact wording “Steadfast through every change” in a poem, thanks to Google Books, that is in a Christian World magazine from 1867. I’ve embedded the entire poem here, called “The Father’s Peace,” by Lucinda Bowser. Enjoy and have a great day.
A Prayer About the Arrogant
This post by Greg R. Taylor is about Psalm 73 and centers on a word about the arrogant in the culture. The suggestion is that when we are tempted to complain about what we have in the United States, one of, if not the richest countries in the world, go read Psalm 73:3-12.
Some weep and some rejoice
This post is about a very interesting Scripture, Ezra 3:11-13 about how the second Jewish temple foundation was laid and the people rejoiced and cried. Half the assembly, mostly the older ones, cried. Half the assembly rejoiced. The post relates that to our lives, how often we gather in mosques, churches, synagogues, and temples and some rejoice and some are terribly sad. The important point is we are together in seeking God.

Between the Ditches of Manifestos and Non-Sense
What Greg Taylor tries to offer in his blog is something of a life that can inspire you to reflect on your own and how to be more human, more like Jesus, more of the person God is making you to be. So I’ll spare you long manifestos and spare you a lot about whether or not I like Dr. Pepper or Coke. I’ll try to keep it between the ditches.
