Blog of the Grateful Bear

ramblings of a freelance panentheist {"all things are in God, and God is in all things"} . . . musings on Emergent spirituality, powerlifting, LGBTQueer issues, contemplative prayer, mysticism, cats, music, healing, and more. I like my coffee and my existentialism dark-roasted.

Hello, I wasn't sure how to contact you, if that was even possible, but I just wanted to say I really enjoy reading your blog. You have a delightful, empowering attitude and a wonderful energy for seeking truth. I enjoyed your posts about panentheism. As a Taumist (follower of Gospel of Tau'ma/Thomas) Panentheist, and attending an Anglican church, I could relate to much of your discussion. God Bless,
