Revolution Orthodoxy: June 2011
http://revorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thoughts on the essentials of Christian faith. Friday, June 17, 2011. All day Wednesday I struggled at work with boredom. It's not that I didn't have anything to do, it was that I didn't feel like doing anything. I was working from home, which is sometimes counterproductive. The house is too quiet and the climate control too comfortable for serious work. So my mind wandered and my body relaxed the more I slumped in my chair and stretched out my legs. Saturday, June 4, 2011. Revelation, not Explanation.

Revolution Orthodoxy: April 2011
http://revorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Thoughts on the essentials of Christian faith. Thursday, April 21, 2011. The Terrible Inefficiency of a Devotional Life. Recently I sat down in front of my computer to 'revamp' my personal work and life schedule. My work-life balance was horribly off - I was working from home every night, skipping lunch and it seemed that there was a ministry event at church every other night. I was remembering Gordon MacDonald's nervous breakdown in the face of a hectic work schedule ( Ordering Your Private World. I men...

Thoughts on the essentials of Christian faith. Tuesday, April 17, 2012. AIDS, Promiscuity and the Power of Monogamy. It seemed like everyone else did! I suppose that's the danger of knowing only partial facts, as well as being too young to really understand what a sexually transmitted disease is. I recently read a book called.

Revolution Orthodoxy: Mystery Spoiled by a Word
http://revorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2011/09/mystery-spoiled-by-word.html
Thoughts on the essentials of Christian faith. Thursday, September 1, 2011. Mystery Spoiled by a Word. The third approach, Apophatic, deals with the aspect of mystery. While Pietistic and Cataphatic approaches have much to affirm intellectually and existentially, Apophatic approaches preserve the aspect of mystery within Christian theology, while at the same time affirming reason and experience. It supports the idea that we are limited in not only our knowledge of God, but our ability. When Catherine of ...

Revolution Orthodoxy: December 2011
http://revorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thoughts on the essentials of Christian faith. Sunday, December 4, 2011. Chips, Salsa, Beer, and Theology. Although I don't want to over-spiritualize our little theological book club, I also don't want to underestimate its powerfully sacred nature. What we do every few months is create a space for dialogue to flourish. This dialogue is not the empty words of 'how are you doing? Fine, how are you? Those are just two example of sacred space. There are many more. We had one last night with our famil...Pictu...

Revolution Orthodoxy: October 2011
http://revorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Thoughts on the essentials of Christian faith. Wednesday, October 12, 2011. A thirteen-year-old boy whose family is part of our local church congregation died this morning at 11:30am. I didn't know him well, but I did observe that we was a sweet and compassionate kid. When my oldest son, who's 7 now, went to Rock the Rock (our version of vacation bible school), this young man reached out to and ministered to him. I am praying for and grieving with this family.
