Perplexed by Paradox?

What do you do when you are filled with questions or perplexed by paradox? Me, I ponder and write. Here are some of the questions I have pondered lately in my blog, Musings By Candlelight. I invite you to ponder with me–and comment!

In the Intersection of Life, Faith and Sexuality . . .

• What does it mean to be made in the image of God … sexually?
• In the domain of religion and sex, how did fear and shame come to permeate our upbringing?
• Have we gotten so rooted and mixed up in our ideas of sexuality that we suffer from a failure of imagination?

The Paradoxes in Parenting . . .

• Why do moms so often struggle to care for themselves more, and care for others less?
• What are the most powerful influences on children as they grow?
• Why do children seem to know what brings them joy, but as adults we seem confused about this?

Paradoxes in Mindful Living . . .

• How did urban life become so harried and crazy?
• How does lived experience and the body relate?
• What do we mean when we say, “Life is for the living”?
