Poetry

Study poetry for two reasons (though there are more): 1) that your soul would be strengthened through the reading of others' emotional expressions; and 2) that you would learn how to more sharply, creatively, and helpfully give voice to your own soul by reading and hearing the voices of other poets. Poetry is medicine; if you would be well read and write it. ('I'm no good' is the poorest of all reasons not to do it.)

Grisanti article

Here's an article we read in my OTI class.

The library

The library is that - a library. In here we can share whatever resources we have have access to and think could be useful to each other.

We can't post files (Word docs, PDFs, etc.) on the blog, so I've determined the easiest way to provide quick access for uploading and downloading of files is to use docs.google.com as a database. Go to docs.google.com, then log in with pannenberg.library, pw pannenberg. (For those with a gmail address, you'll have to sign out of your account and log in with pannenberg.library).

When you log on, read the "Read First" file for more instructions.

We can use the blog as a way to notify each other when we update the docs database.
