http://musingsofanarmchairtheologian.blogspot.com/2011/03/st-patricks-day-roundup.html
Doctrine for devotion. Principle for practice. Theology for doxology. Friday, March 18, 2011. St Patrick's Day Roundup. Yesterday, like a good Irish redhead, I wore green and paid my respects to Saint Patrick. He was a great missionary with a passion for reaching the barbaric peoples of Ireland (my ancestors). I have a lot of respect for this man. So, I've compiled some of the best of the blogosphere's tributes to St. Patty. March 18, 2011 at 9:42 PM. Good comments, good quote. St Patrick lived less ...

On this day in 1517, a lone Augustian monk upset Western civilization as we know it. On All Hallow's Eve, Martin Luther nailed his. Onto the door of the church in Wittenberg. This would be the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. The Disputation of Martin Luther on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences. My favorite of Luther's theses:. 28 It is certain that whe...

The Armchair Theologian: Butterflies and Growingdown
http://musingsofanarmchairtheologian.blogspot.com/2012/01/butterflies-and-growingdown.html
Doctrine for devotion. Principle for practice. Theology for doxology. Friday, January 13, 2012. When did the extraordinary become so ordinary? All my studies and books and projects have led me to a conclusion that seemed self-evident at age six. There's no such thing as "ordinary". All things are beautiful and awe-inspiring because every single thing that exists was created for a cosmic purpose. Speaking of Christ, Paul said that not only were all things created. Him but they were created. Look at every ...

Doctrine for devotion. Principle for practice. Theology for doxology. Thursday, May 9, 2013. A Tale of Two Kings. First off, apologies are in order for my delayed absence. Between wedding prep, a honeymoon and adjusting to a new house and schedule, writing sort of gets put on the backburner. But I am alive and ready to get back into the swing of things. 8226; Xerxes: “all women will give honor to their husbands” (Esther 1:20). Xerxes is describing tyrannical chauvinism while Paul is describing sacrificia...

Doctrine for devotion. Principle for practice. Theology for doxology. Tuesday, April 9, 2013. On Saturday I had the privilege of being married to my best friend. I'm so grateful that God brought such a wonderful woman into my life. Throughout the wedding we tried to strike a balance between the traditional and the personal. These are the vows that my wife and I took before God and witnesses and now, by the Spirit's aid, strive to fulfill. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Seek And Ye Shall Find.

The Armchair Theologian: Breathtaking Reality
http://musingsofanarmchairtheologian.blogspot.com/p/armchair-love.html
Doctrine for devotion. Principle for practice. Theology for doxology. Why do you and I exist? So, what's the issue? If God wants us to know and experience Him why does He feel so distant? Well, our first parents joined in the devil's rebellion against their Creator. They shunned God's offer of a relationship and instead chose to live for themselves. Likewise, each one of us has shunned God's offer by choosing to please ourselves through sin rather than please God through righteousnes. God worked through ...

Doctrine for devotion. Principle for practice. Theology for doxology. Friday, January 25, 2013. Let me clarify what I mean by that. Not all equality is savage. In fact, the right kind of equality will save us from savage equality. It is a true and faithful saying that all men (and women) are created equal. Likewise, manhood and womanhood are equally valuable. However, they are not equal in the sense of. Engaging in combat is not a right or even a privilege. It's a horrific duty and I applaud all thos...

Doctrine for devotion. Principle for practice. Theology for doxology. Tuesday, March 26, 2013. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Review. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. And so, like the little kid on the tricycle who gets to the park after all the big kids have had their fun and left, I shall write my humble review of the film. The overall tone was about what I expected. It certainly wasn't. The Lord of the Rings. But I really didn't expect it to be. Even the books are very different. Also, I really liked thi...
