Denomination
Currently unchurched, yet committed. I love the pure grace message that Apostle Paul defends throughout his letters, his revelatory gospel underscored in Galatians 1:11-12. I’m committed to a “centered” lifestyle of prayer and devotion. Perhaps some view me as a man overboard and want to rescue me from the deep waters of experiencing God, while others find my passion too progressive. Regardless, I’m always eager to gather with Christians. My profile covers this: -)

My Profession
Intuitively sensitive, emotionally available, entirely imperfect. Nonjudgmental. Having grappled with the notion that Trinity — in three personalities — lies largely outside human conception, leaves me believing that God can only be known by Love.
Interests
Reading, Writing Poetry, Fine Art. Vintage Film Photography, DYI projects, Healthy Eating/Exercise, Camping, Hiking, Outdoors, Chopping Firewood. As to a marriage partner, some things are inexplicable… you just know.
About Me
Selfie (1/23) trust me, my hair is brown & gray… I chose “brown” because salt & pepper sounds old… and I’m still enjoying youthful delusions.

I’m slowly restructuring my profile… sorry if it reads choppy.

It’s interesting, but you really don’t think seriously about your life in this way until queried to write your Personal Descriptive Profile. It’s a good exercise… though true, I’ve outgrown my previous profile. Too, I think Believers are challenged not to “categorize” others, in keeping with Jesus’ example to love but never to define neighbor; yet, in the process of selection at hand, the tendency to subtilize with a résumé of likes and caprices hoped for in a mate is perhaps a reasonable inclination

At least that’s the tenor between the lines among profiles I’ve read. I doubt my scratch of the pen reads much different; albeit, It’s my purpose to be specific without creating an imbalanced view of who I am. Don’t hate me for saying so, but it’s true that a majority of profiles read like a press release; however accurate that may be in truth, I’m certain it’s not a reflection of personality. People are time-poor. Yet, it’s also true that minimal creative investment — content, NOT length — on something this important, risks yielding in kind (though grace overrides to a large extent, the same measure we put out tends to come back to us). All that said, it isn’t always the case… I read and see between the lines. If I message you, it’s because I see something (not simply physical attraction).

For now, incomplete profile at hand, let it suffice that I envisage cultivating a deep, meaningful relationship. If that’s not your desire, then reading beyond these lines will be time lost to you. But if the desire of your heart is to drink from a deep well, there’s no stopping you; whether my lines fling that door open, or the lines of another sojourner meant for you. My hope is success for all bravely using CDFF. I want everyone’s hearts desire to be met.

Random:

Please message me here on CDFF. Be apprised: I won’t respond to hasty solicitations for my phone number or email address… until a mutual comfort level is established, correspondence remains solely on CDFF : -)

When I describe myself as unchurched, please know that that is not a predilection. I’m eager to attend the fellowship of my mate’s choosing I’m certain that will naturally work out as a point of discussion, though I view church attendance as (more or less) elective, I understand its benefits as well.

As already mentioned in another section, my position on the pure grace message defaults to Apostle Paul’s revelatory gospel:

“I want you to know, brothers [and sisters], that the gospel I preached is not something that man made up. I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by REVELATION from Jesus Christ.” (Galatians 1:11, 12 NIV ‘84)

As a Christian, I’m well read, expansively beyond my degree in Theology/Pastoral Min. A mere BA, I do not consider myself a theologian (nor to possess a mastery in any subject). But I mention these things because certain concentrations speak to my personality more than a list of weekly TV shows or what I like to eat for breakfast; still yet, I was all ears with friendly, voluntary feedback, from someone (here) commenting after reading my page that in their view, I appeared “intimidating” and “intense.” Trust that’s far from my heart… in fact it has been said that I’m warm and gracious, fun and engaging… but I do love to read and study.

Favorite authors range within many genres: Theology, Contemplative, Catholic (patristic to contemporary), Emergent Movement, Christian Mystics (French and English, medieval to contemporary). Presently, I’m pretty enamored with The Cloud of Unknowing, anonymously written in the 14th century (a Christian classic foundational to the Contemplative Prayer Movement). I also read outside that vein: philosophy, comparative religions, extra-biblical, classics and poetry. As a centered Christ Follower, I keep curious and open minded, willing to explore. It’s my belief that when it comes to theological conclusions, all should think independently, not simply default to perimeters set by polity and group-think conventions superintended within hierarchical arrangements. Never were we meant to delegate all responsibility to clergy or church leadership.

Though I’m definitely hoping to find love, I’m a proponent of freedom (a very Pauline theme). Returning a message is always optional. I wish everyone Godspeed in their search. A perfect match awaits you ❤️ Jesus wants you free indeed, blessed, brimming with the Spirit of Grace and happily in the solid relationship you’ve patiently entreated Him for.

End Note: If you are searching for material abundance, though I live debt-free, you won’t find that here. A rustic cabin somewhat remote and much downtime in front of a wood stove is my present choice for solitude. And I should mention that I’m not opposed to relocating. Once upon a time, I lived a fairly metropolitan lifestyle; however, I now relish periods of quiet, but promise that I’m far from antisocial. In the social domain, I CRAVE stimulating conversation and it’s a habit of mine too pull out of people their deepest processes of thinking. And I thoroughly enjoy outings, as well as travel, finding those out of the way coffee houses and restaurants. Age appropriate please : -)
First Date
Ultimately, my search will end as a budding, mutual relationship begins. So, I think our first date will naturally work out. Deep, meaningful exchange will be central to its charm. But that’s natural course for two destined individuals discovering each other. Tack on here: I eat pescatarian, close to vegan and coffee addicted. This is not a ethical decision, nor is it entirely strict (I break rules circumstantially). And in terms of alcohol use, it’s an individual decision… I have no issue hanging out at a party, or enjoying myself in pretty much any circumstance (exceptions apply). I just like to drink my Pellegrino and enjoy the occasion with everyone else. In other words, I don’t endorse alcohol prohibition… it’s a personal choice (and who knows, I might change my mind and drink a glass of wine someday:-).

I’m not on CDFF often; however, please feel free to reach out. Wishing all success in their search, whether finding their soulmate here on this site or elsewhere.
