In the beginning

Not as dramatic a beginning as Genesis (the Beginning) but my first post – so it is the beginning.

I firstly want to acknowledge that the picture in my header was taken off John & Mel Kots’ flickr photostream and that can be viewed here: Door Art

You may notice that my blog address is “hypodermic.wordpress.com”. What’s with “hypodermic”? Well, I tried using several other names but they were taken. It’s too long a story to tell how “hypodermic” came to the fore but as I looked up the exact meaning, it is a combination of two Greek works which literally mean just below the skin.

That’s exactly what Christianity does – get’s under people’s skin. I won’t try to do it on purpose but Jesus’ teachings weren’t popular then and have never been to this day. Of course, I hope more than anything that things that I post are helpful to some, encouraging to others, and strike a chord of agreement with many so that we can share things in common.

Until next time, so long.
