Orcas Island

This weekend we spent the time at WinterFest on Orcas Island. It was a blast.We got to spend some good time with some great friends and take a lot of pictures. 
WinterFest Speaker this year was Earl Palmer, and he spoke of 4 defiant traditionalists.  Karl Barth, G.K. Chesterton, Dorothy Sayers and C.S. Lewis.  In the coming months (as I get the opportunity to read more of their writings) there will be more quotes and information about them.  Two things stuck out to me.  1 it is important to be well versed in what one believes and 2 that those four people were full of whit.  They were smart and funny. 



I leave with a quote from G.K. Chesterton. More will follow:
"The Bible tells us to love our neighbors, and also to love our enemies; probably because they are generally the same people."
