Heritage of Grace: Interview a Blogger Challenge

Picture1

      Rebekah from "Heritage of Grace" blog invited me to join in her "interview a blogger challenge."  For the challenge I answer some questions about myself, (nothing too personal) and post them right here on my blog! Want to join the challenge?  Simply go to http://heritageofgrace.wordpress.com/2013/05/17/interview-a-blogger/#comment-596
and leave a comment answering the questions!  Everyone is invited!
   
      Now for the questions!

  • What is your favorite hymn?
      My favorite hymn is definitely "Amazing Grace."  (I know all the words!)  It is a beautiful song, written by a very sinful man who had much to be forgiven, and thankful for.  

  • What do you consider to be the most difficult book of the Bible? Why?
      Leviticus was the hardest book for me to finish because I found the laws, and ordinances, and measurements of holy things to get rather dull.  Still, I am very glad I read it!

  • A character trait you most admire in people?
      What I admire most in people has to be the trait that makes a teenage guy play with a little toddler, a friend give you a hug, (just when you really need a hug) a preacher preach to a half-empty (he would say half-full) church every Sunday, a police officer give a bike to a teenager so he won't have to walk to work, and a nice girl befriend another girl who really needed a friend. . . A trait called Christ-love. 

  • What do you like most about your family?
      Laughter:  I love laughing with my family, because we all have the same silly sense of humor.

  • What do you wish you could do more of?
      I would love to be more active, and swim more, but I don't feel very well most of the time, so I can't as much as I would like.

  • Favorite author and book?
My favorite all-around author is C. S. Lewis, but my favorite book is most definitely 
"The Hobbit!"

  • Do you prefer active/outdoor activities or creative/indoor activities?
I enjoy outdoor activities like camping, canoeing, hiking, swimming, and bike riding.

  • Do you keep a journal/diary?
I have in the past, and I am re-establishing the habit.  It helps free my mind.

  • What is your favorite healthy food or recipe (ex: blueberries)?
      This is a tough one, but probably homemade ice cream.  (Yes, it can be healthy!)

  • Do you think music is neutral or does it have an influence on those who listen?     
       I think music has an influence, but perhaps more on a person's mood than worldview.  Any thoughts, or ideas I get from music usually wears off when the song is over, but an upbeat, uplifting song does tend to lift my spirits considerably.

  • Which historical person (besides Biblical characters) do you most admire?
Perhaps President Ronald Reagan, because he stood up for what he believed to was right: (Although he wasn't perfect.)  He was also a great president, and a good actor! 

  • What do you like best about blogging?
I love being able to share opinions, connecting with other Christians, and WRITING of course!
