He is somewhere in the recesses of our soul, in the springs of our existence, a light in that mysterious region of our nature where the wishes, feelings, thoughts, and emotions take their earliest rise. The mind is a sanctuary, in the center of which the Lord sits enthroned, the lamp of consciousness burning before Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jane Heard. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22300]]></link><description><![CDATA[Jane Heard.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22300</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[America is another name for opportunity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45048]]></link><description><![CDATA[America is another name for opportunity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45048</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've heard people in support, strongly in support, and I've heard people that say if we go back into special ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38247]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've heard people in support, strongly in support, and I've heard people that say if we go back into special session, they're going to be down on the Capitol steps telling us to get out of there!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think this is a bearish report because average hourly earnings are ticking up significantly, ...

Often the layman dismisses what the preacher says as something irrelevant to his situation and generation. When he joins a group where he is no longer afraid to be frank, the supposedly faithful member often admits that he has never really accepted what he thinks he has heard. He has, for example, grave reservations about the idea of creation. Did not the world evolve of itself? Do we really need the hypothesis of Infinite Purpose to make sense of the physical, biological, and psychological development? These questions seldom come to the surface when the Church provides merely a one-way preaching. There is little chance of renewal if all that we have is the arrangement by which one speaks and the others listen. One trouble with this conventional system is that the speaker never knows what the unanswered questions are, or what reservations remain in the layman's mentality.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This case may also be notable for the chutzpah of the Assistant United States Attorney in advancing as a reason ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53131]]></link><description><![CDATA[This case may also be notable for the chutzpah of the Assistant United States Attorney in advancing as a reason for striking a juror that, "I have a P rule, I never accept anyone whose occupation begins with a P.
