		<description><![CDATA[In the Presbyterian Church (USA), we share a common theological language. That language, however, is filled with varying and often competing interpretations. We all say "chips," but some of us are thinking french fries and others Baked Lays. Same words. Different meanings.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=jeffgissing.com&#038;blog=1720980&#038;post=8934&#038;subd=twotasks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[...[M]any reformed Christians expect that the imagination will more likely lead them astray than help to redeem them. However, there are limits to reason. G. K. Chesterton once wrote that the perfectly rational man lives in an insane asylum.
