The Gospel of John

I am currently taking a class about the Gospel of John and it is absolutely fascinating.  There is so much I would like to say about because it is incredible but there is a lot so I wont.

One central theme to the gospel is the centrality of christian community when it comes to all aspects of the faith.  John tells us that the community of believers is the only way to practice any and all aspects of Christianity.  It is not a lone ranger faith it is a faith and a family and you cannot separate the two, i think that is a good message for may churches today that do have community but don't really focus on it.  From reading John you can see that the relationship between believers is absolutely central to faith in Jesus.  Love one another as I have loved you, radical and incredible and I hate the word radical (unless a ninja turtle says it.)

Calbri

Calbri is a font that I have recently started to use and I love it as much as a man can love a font and still be accepted by the Church.  The letters are just so "friendly" but professional at the same time. It has a very sharp but unintimidating and unassuming character to it as a font. 
Calbri has none of the unfortunate jagged edges and superfluous curves that Times New Roman boasts with all of its glory as it looks down from its seat of DEFAULT on all Microsoft Office versions prior to 2007.  Calbri is nice and its fun to type in.  
Unfortunately Blogger doesn't have it so I am stuck but right now I am typing in Trebuchet which is similar, plus I like it because that is the name of Catapults in the ancient world and that is pretty cool
