Some day I’ll make it mine.”

I appreciate your use of Dylan...My favorite is his hymn "Every Grain of Sand." Perhaps the most lucid poignant depiction of the Christian life I have heard...
thanks for continually providing stimulating theological covnersation, even for people like myself who read but rarely post!!!

Thanks, John. It's great to see that there's someone else out there who likes Dylan. You're right about "Every Grain of Sand" -- it's a wonderful song, and a wonderful depiction of the journey of faith.
