"My love of consistency with my own doctrinal views is not great enough to allow me knowingly to alter a single text of Scripture. I have great respect for orthodoxy, but my reverence for inspiration is far greater. I would sooner a hundred times over appear to be inconsistent with myself than be inconsistent with the word of God."
How comfortable are you with paradox, mystery, and tension?
Charles Spurgeon:
Life in the Quarter: My First Month in Pictures
My last post was October 5 and it was a contest entry. It has been a while. So, what's new? Charlee and I are getting settled into the new place. Anyone who has moved knows that moving is a bit like salvation. It's a one time event and an ongoing process that never really ends until you move out. (I'm sure I'll get an email for that one.) We've been enjoying the Quarter and have met lots of wonderful people. It's an exciting place to live.
We've met Heidi and Dana, the super nice owners of Gallery 713. It's a gallery on Royal St. (Can you guess the address?) The have lots of interesting paintings and art from talented artists. You can check them out on their site and on Facebook or just walk by and buy some awesome art.
This is Tanya and Dorise. They perform in front of Cafe Du Monde on Sundays. I'm planning on grabbing up their albums as soon as I can get a chance. They are awesome!
We've seen lots of other interesting things on the river side. Here's a wedding in Jackson Square.
And a performance after the Saint's big win over the Giants.
We've eaten at lots of different places and look forward to getting to know the waiters, managers, and owners of our favorite spots. Here's a gyro from Ali Baba. Even though chicken shawarma is generally my favorite, I recommend the lamb. It really shines.
Now when it comes to burgers, there's a tough choice to be made. Clover Grill, Port of Call, and Yo-Momma's all excel in their own way. This is my favorite burger at Clover Grill, the bleu cheese jalapeno burger.
We get caught by the rain and have to take shelter all the time, but I think it only makes our adventures more fun. And the rain cools everything off. There's nothing more pleasant than a walk through the Quarter with a really light drizzle.
