Anyways, let's get to business. I created a list of all the ideas I've heard and came up with:
-Reading the Bible right now - Ask and answer questions - Exciting, abundant, full, adventurous - "All of us" - Action-packed - Different - Challenge
Here are the name ideas: - "The Out of the Ordinary Blog for Out of the Ordinary Christians" - "More to Life" - "Guys and Girls Standing Up for Jesus" - "The Blog of Serious Life Questions"
Have you heard or sung at church "The Time Has Come" by Hillsong United? I think the message really ties in with the blog.
Here are the lyrics:
Found love beyond all reason You gave Your life Your all for me And called me Yours forever Caught in the mercy fallout I found hope found life Found all I need You're all I need
The time has come To stand for all we believe in So I for one am gonna Give my praise to You
Today today it's all or nothing All they way The praise goes out to You Yeah all the praise goes out to You Today today I live for one thing To give You praise In everything I do Yeah all the praise goes out to You
All we are is Yours And all we're living for Is all You are Is all that You are Lord
I'm not entirely sure, I just like the idea around meeting each other at "the pole" to pray and have fellowship. Well, maybe this blog could be like the pole.
-The Out of the Ordinary Blog for Out of the Ordinary Christians -More to Life -Girls and Guys Standing Up for Jesus -The Blog of Serious Life Questions -Seeking Wisdom: The Blog -Alexithymia: The Blog -The Great Rebellion -The Time Has Come to Stand Up
-Alexithymia: The Blog -The Great Rebellion -The Time Has Come (maybe just that?) - "The Blog With No Name Because It's Too Cool to Have a Name and Every Time We Think of a Name We Just Say ROFL X Infinity"
Grace! You took the 100 comment! Oh, well, I snoozed. I loozed. Or lost, rather.
Okay. Here is what I think about Alexithymia: The Blog. Let me make it clear...I do like the name. The only problem is that the term "Alexithymia" according to Wikipedia means "to describe a state of deficiency in understanding, processing, or describing emotions." Yes, the guys from Anberlin are Christians so this makes the song acceptable, but the song has a serious, for lack of better words "darker" message that focuses on a problem (like bad communication), and it just says that "there's more to living than being alive," meaning there's hope that's obviously found in Jesus.
So I hope that made sense. I still like the name, but I was hoping we can derive our blog name from something more positive.

THAT'S IT??? YEAH??
LOL
Cool!
ok I need to get my scrap of paper that I wrote some ideas on
hold on a sec
I was also thinking about basing the name off a song, perhaps a song relating to our mission.
Do you have a song in mind?
Not really...
I'm looking at my iTunes to get ideas. Do you have any songs?
Alexithymia: The Blog
now there's a name
Umm...I dunno'. Have u heard that song "I will not be moved" by Nataline Grant?
good name justin :P
hmm no I haven't heard that song
I'm listening to it right now. Good song. It goes well with the "standing up for Jesus" theme.
Hmm..."Alexithymia: The Blog". Wow, that doesn't sound bad either, since the chorus of the song goes "There's more to living than being a live."
There's also "Supersonic" by Family Force 5.
ok, have y'all ever heard that saying "See you at the pole" ?
Oh yeah!
Seeking Wisdom: The Blog
I like the "The Blog" thing. I'm writing down all y'all's ideas.

"The Great Rebellion"

Have you heard or sung at church "The Time Has Come" by Hillsong United? I think the message really ties in with the blog.
Here are the lyrics:
Found love beyond all reason
You gave Your life Your all for me
And called me Yours forever
Caught in the mercy fallout
I found hope found life
Found all I need
You're all I need
The time has come
To stand for all we believe in
So I for one am gonna
Give my praise to You
Today today it's all or nothing
All they way
The praise goes out to You
Yeah all the praise goes out to You
Today today I live for one thing
To give You praise
In everything I do
Yeah all the praise goes out to You
All we are is Yours
And all we're living for
Is all You are
Is all that You are Lord
I've never heard it, but I like the lyrics.
"The Time has come to stand up"
??
hmmm...now that i think about it...
Grace, what were you thinking about with "see you at the pole"?
I'm not entirely sure, I just like the idea around meeting each other at "the pole" to pray and have fellowship. Well, maybe this blog could be like the pole.
so how would we name our blog according to that song?
What song?
the one before see you at the pole
You mean "The Time Has Come"?

Thats what Proverbs has pretty much been about so far.

Confusion...
Confusion...
Ya, ur right. Speaking of which, what are we going to read next?
I mean, us writing different things 2 late or 2 early and it making it sound strange. Confusion.
I'm not sure yet. We'll figure it out later.
Haha...Grace, I got your email. :D
Oh, I see what you mean, Grace. Why don't we "quote" to help avoid confusion?

Grace! You took the 100 comment! Oh, well, I snoozed. I loozed. Or lost, rather.

So I hope that made sense. I still like the name, but I was hoping we can derive our blog name from something more positive.
ok i'm gonna continue typing till its shut off. my dad is trying to fix the internet and the only way to do that is to shut down all internet access.
So...The pole?

Sorry, I disappeared there.
