Today I'm really feeling....MIXED UP, just like that church I went to yesterday - The Unitarian Universalist Church of Indianapolis. Everybody in that church is allowed to have their own beliefs and chose their own way to 'the truth'. It is a church mixed with atheists, theists, agnostics, pagans, Jews, Hindus, Christians. Some simply just don't know what they believe or what to believe. I don't know what I am feeling, my feelings are just mixed. I guess I am now entering stage two culture shock according to the document that Dr Lewis sent me! Its not a nice feeling though. But through it all I know that I have the Lord walking right beside me as I go on my journey thats what keeps my sanity. I guess that is what keeps the sanity of that church; the fact that at least most people are on a journey through a tunnel with a light at the end of the road, whatever that light is.

Let's get started
Well two days ago I asked Khala to drop me down town Indianapolis on her way to a meeting in the vicinity so that I could 'explore' the place. It is quite huge and full of many avenues and lanes comparing to downtown, Kingston. There were many things to see and many places to go. I eventually ended up about 2miles from where Khala left me and where she would come to pick me up back. I needed somewhere or something to mark my path. Ah! I saw the perfect building - A MOSQUE!. It was visible as I went from point A to B and from C to D. Here was I, a Christian..and it was a mosque that guided me back to where I was suppose to be, and did a pretty good job at doing it too! It made me think... is religious plurality such a bad idea after all? Can other religious groups apart from our own help us to find and discover or REdiscover God??
In the beginning....
Upon the suggestion of one who has committed to journeying with me I have decided to start this blog. I invite all and sundry to journey with me in my experiences as I reflect both superficially and theologically on them. So far it has been quite an interesting and enriching experience and I look forward to exceptional days ahead!
