An Ordinary Christian Carnival 


I live just a few miles south of Ordinary, Virginia. It's a plain little place. Actually, not. There's an inn there that has been in operation almost continually since George Washington stopped by on his way to visit his grandparents. I've had dinner there twice on very special occasions. In colonial days, roadside inns like this were called "ordinaries;" hence the name of the town.  

The Evangelical Ecologist called this week's Christian Carnival "An Ordinary Christian Carnival." Sometimes the seeming ordinary can hide the extraordinary. I especially liked:
 
Been There, Done That from Pilgrim Scribblings 
The Stories We Live and Celebrate from Mind, Heart, and Mysteries 
Reminding the Redeemed of Their Rescue from Says Simpleton 
The Art of Innovation from The View From Her
