2 months and no blog!
Strange Land By Paul Graham on Monday, January 22, 2007

Wow, time slips by. I'll thry and get a blog up here every couple weeks or so... if I don't... bug me about it. I am thinking about blogs in the context of conversation, and in that context, the conversations I romantically envision taking place in quiet pub in England with gentlemen like CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien discussing the character of God and the finer points of theology, as well as contemporary issues. Are blogs the millienial version of easy-chair conversations in a local? Anyway, the point being that the conversation itself is a significant part of the value. Or as Marshall Mcluhan would say... "the medium is the message".  So I won't give up on continuing the conversation, even if it is a little one sided some days.

What I'm (just finished) reading: Radical Reformission, Mark Driscoll.  4/5 (look for a review soon)

Women and Islam
Strange Land By Paul Graham on Monday, November 20, 2006

I can't claim a deep understanding of Islam, and the many flavours of it practiced. But found the following couple articals interesting.. printed within a week of each other.

That's all. Nothing from me so far this week... maybe after I have studied up on these two topics more.

Ted and the Pharisees
Strange Land By Paul Graham on Monday, November 13, 2006
It is obviously a great blow to the church when a leader such as Rev. Haggard falls in the way that he has. What are we to make of this?

Hey Jude
Strange Land By Paul Graham on Saturday, October 21, 2006
Well, teaching from Jude 1:5-7 was interesting this past Sunday. It was probably a little different for you too. Since we are teaching through the whole book, I didn't want to stray too far ahead in the book, which leaves us with those three verses and one topic... judgment.

Closet prayer
Strange Land By Paul Graham on Saturday, September 09, 2006
Matthew 6:6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Many are familiar with this instruction regarding prayer, and I was just thinking about it again.

570 News
Strange Land By Paul Graham on Thursday, July 27, 2006
As I drove to pick up Isaac today I was tuned into 570 News. They happened to have a guest on the phone-in show discussing the Israel-Lebenon situation. It goes without saying the complexity of this is imense, and not solvable on a blog. But I felt compelled to phone in as a drove and got a chance to respond to a some of his (I feel) mistaken or misleading points.
