But Now: Stibbs on Church
http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/stibbs-on-church.html
Saturday, 12 September 2009. The church is a somewhat vexed issues in parts of Anglicanism. Some say others claim too much for church - the others might reply that the 'some' have no doctrine of church at all! I have a sneaking suspicion that much of our thinking is far more influenced by the 1830s then any other period of Anglican history, but that's for another day. Stibbs concern is to show that this local gathering is. Thanks for this Dave. Loved the moon illustration - very helpful. New Book on Paul.

and another thing.... or three: A Read Book - Guidance and the Voice of God - Phillip Jensen

And another thing. or three. Sunday, February 14, 2010. A Read Book - Guidance and the Voice of God - Phillip Jensen. This book is classic Philip (the mostly good, the slightly frustrating, and the always parochial! It started life as a sermon series for uni students and shows it's heritage in that it was always going to be finite in scope. There is much taught clearly in the book - as you would expect - but being a sermon series not always at the depth that some would hope for. I'd give it about a 7/10.

And another thing. or three. Sunday, July 17, 2011. Another Book Read - Sticky Teams - Larry Osborne. A book about leadership of teams in a ministry context. A few people have really loved this book and recommended it highly, I guess by the time I read it a lot of the wisdom in it had already filtered through various channels to not be a surprise when I read it in the end. Some good stuff, some slight madness - a warm hug - it is not! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

But Now: March 2010
http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 24 March 2010. There is a bit of debate about how to translate. In modern commentaries, the translation ‘citizenship’ is usually rejected because of its weak attestation in ancient texts. The problem I see with translating. As ‘civic association’ is that, in English, it is quite an un-intuitive phrase. Any perceived ‘governance’ by a ‘civic association’ would be, at most, minimal. Which govern the community at a deeper way than governments can. So, even a resident. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

But Now: April 2009
http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, 26 April 2009. A friend of mine at College did some serious thinking about the place of virtual church - 'attending' church on-line. It seemed a somewhat ethereal issue at the time, but not any more. Churches have sprung up in Second Life, and the increase in podcasts of sermons is unending (one wonders if this is the new measure of success as a preaching - not church size, but number of downloads). Obviously Lloyd-Jones didn't stream his sermons, and in Preaching and Preachers. Is to show the pr...

But Now: May 2009
http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Friday, 1 May 2009. Justice Potter Stewart famously said of pornography: 'I can't define it, but I know it when I see it.' Often we can feel the same about preaching. It's difficult to define what makes preaching, or certainly what makes 'good' preaching, but we know it when we see or hear it. Or as Lloyd-Jones says:. Preaching is [.] difficult to define. [.] Preaching is something that one recognises when one hears it. So the best we can do is say certain things about it. And those certain things are:.

But Now: New Book on Paul
http://butnowblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/new-book-on-paul.html
Friday, 11 September 2009. New Book on Paul. Douglas Campbell's new book on Paul. The Deliverance of God: An Apocalyptic Rereading of Justification in Paul. Has recently been released. I had a quick look at a friend's copy yesterday. A couple of the blurbs on the back describe the book as 'massive'. It certainly is - 1376 pages! If it is anything like his earlier. Quest for Paul's Gospel. I think there are going to be some 'massive' problems with this book - and not just its length! Origin of the Specious.

and another thing.... or three: The Stench of Christianity
http://andanotherthingorthree.blogspot.com/2009/09/stench-of-christianity.html
And another thing. or three. Wednesday, September 9, 2009. The Stench of Christianity. So the Jesus All about Life campaign is about to kick off and part of me wonders how ready really, Christians are for it? I mean I think people are ready for people to come out of the woodwork to talk about Jesus and the meaning of Christianity, but are they really ready for the other response that is just as sure to come? SO today's paper we see it start,. What utter arrogance and discrimination. Either way I think we...
