18 Dec Personal Memoir: God’s Creative Genius

Why recreate average when you can copy genius?

Most people do not understand  that theology is quite different from religion. I define myself as theological, mainly because I reject the label of being religious. I agree with the assertion of C.S. Lewis (loosely paraphrased here) that theology is like a map that is based on experiencing God rather than merely learning and thinking about God through doctrine. Simply being religious is like learning about the earth and the fullness thereof yet experiencing the earth as if it were flat.

Breast Cancer Cancer Awareness Training in South Africa [caption id="attachment_961" align="alignleft" width="620"] Touch n Learn[/caption] I had a most adventurous career at a pharmaceutical company in New Jersey over the span of 25 years. I started off as a bench scientist in metabolism and pharmacokinetics, which is a fancy way of saying I was a drug discovery scientist. Because I am what career coach Emile Wapnick calls a "multipotentialite" –one who has many interests, many jobs over a lifetime, and many interlocking potentials– my career has been somewhat eclectic. My life over the past 25 years has included drug discovery, learning and development, diversity and inclusion, science education reform, network marketing, mentoring, life coaching, homeschooling, writing, consulting, event planning, and instructional design and development. Today, I am a social entrepreneur and certified life coach who holds a masters in education.
