Ruminations from the Rev

 ru·mi·na·tion   (rōō’mə-nā’shən) n.

1. The act of pondering; meditation. 

2. The act or process of chewing cud.

 Rumination is a fun word.  Few people use it, for that matter, I suppose it is possible that not many people even know what it means.  I must admit, the only reason I chose the word ruminate to describe thinking is because it seemed to be a good alliteration with “Rev.”

To ruminate means to think deeply about, to ponder.  The aim of “Ruminations from the Rev…” is to give you some things to ruminate about.  Its’ purpose is share ideas with you that I’ve read about, pondered, thought of, and ruminated over.  I use a slightly modified form of these blog posts at the church that i serve as an opportunity to explain the reason why we do certain things as well as to offer encouragement to continue to do things which are important to the ministry of Our Savior.

 What do I hope you do with it?  I hope you read it, think about it, ponder and ruminate over some of the ideas presented.  Let me know what you think about them, let me know your thoughts and ideas. 

I hope it makes you ruminate some!
