If you haven't already read today's NY Times piece Sharing Their Demons on the Web, I'd encourage you to prayerfully do such. The article reminded me of the importance of making wise choices of time, emtional investment, storytelling, etc. as we participate in various web communities which can become their own realities inhabited by numerous identities (as sometimes we are different in how we express ourselves on-line versus what we would say face-to-face to a person we know). Pray for the Light of Christ to dispel darkness not only on the web, but also in the very hearts and minds of those who navigate the web ... such as those writing and reading posts as the one on the screen at this very time ;-) 

As you might guess, one reason the article struck me of interest is my preparation for an adult elective on C.S. Lewis' Screwtape Letters, see earlier post Temptations come and go.  Another is the challenge faced by followers of Christ to convince others that the real world goes beyond that which is readily observed by the five senses (or should I say the scientific method, as yesterday the question came up in a conversation between graduate students and faculty at Johns Hopkins).  If you'd have recommendations on how to teach Screwtape Letters well and/or how to address questions regarding the reality beyond the five senses in a fresh way please comment and/or drop me an email.  Thank-you.
