Syng a new song! Chat with Synger

All right, so I've been on staff for a while, and I've never done one of these chat-with-me threads. I started in Theology, sweated through 777 by working on a lot of wikis (and finding I had a real interest in process and protocol), and then served as an admin through some major staff changes. I've recently joined the Reconciliation Team, and am still feeling my way around the new job.

I was raised Presbyterian and ordained an elder in the PCUSA, but gave that up when I converted to confessional Lutheran doctrine. I am happily married (webname: Hunter) and have a lovely seven-year-old (webname: Gem) who is the apple of my eye. We have two cats, and I'm highly allergic to them... so I take allergy meds every day and they have to suffer the indignity of having ONE room of the house (my bedroom) that is entirely off-limits to them.

I love history, theology, and science-fiction. We used to be involved in the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), but haven't done anything with that since Gem was born. We've just joined the Izaac Walton League in our area, so I'm looking forward to learning to fish and shoot, and cleaning up our streams and highways, and all that fun stuff.

I also used to be a very active member of sci-fi fandom in the Washington/Baltimore area, but now I only go to one convention a year (Balticon, yeah!!) I play pre-d20 White Wolf RPGs with my husband, and Everquest2 on the computer whenever I find time (which is much less than it used to be now that I'm so involved on CF).

I love to sing (hence the username), and am a lyric soprano. I collect musicals. Hymnody and psalmnody are major parts of my personal devotions.

I really love composting, but am a terrible gardener. Originally from Michigan, I firmly believe that these mid-Atlantic summers get too hot for weeding.

My latest trick is learning to knit. My first project was a little purse for Gem, and now I'm knitting a prayer shawl. I used to do cross-stitch, but my eyes are getting older now (though I still act like a teenager too often) and it's really hard for me. So knitting is filling the bill. It's nice to have something to do with my hands again while watching TV (other than folding parts of the never-ending Mount Washmore)

I've blathered on long enough. Now it's your turn. Any questions?

Many people think that the question should be: have you made Jesus your Lord? Have you invited him unreservedly into your heart? Have you completely dedicated every part of yourself and your life to him?

The trouble is that when we are truthful, the answer must always be "No." So let's ask the question a different way.

Has Jesus given everything for you? Has he dedicated his whole life to you? Has he invited you into his heart? And the answer to that is a glorious and gracious and conscious, freeing, comforting YES!

You will make a wonderful addition to the Reconciliation Team Synger but I will miss working with you.

Hi!
You had replied to a thread I started called " Is there a way you can..." and my question is what if I do not have the URL?

For us to do much of anything to identify and cut down on inappropriate ads, we need to have the URL of the ad. The description alone doesn't do much good, I'm afraid.

However, if you keep an eye out for it, and see it or something like it again, please send a staff member the URL and tell them you're reporting it as inappropriate. They'll know what to do. (and if they don't, just send it to me)

What sort of questions are you up for Synger? (Warning: I can be rather random)
