Biblio-File: A revolution based on what a verse doesn't say
http://bookloversjournal.blogspot.com/2014/10/a-revolution-based-on-what-verse-doesnt.html
Collected musings of a pair of book lovers. Wednesday, October 22, 2014. A revolution based on what a verse doesn't say. Hearing Her Voice: A Biblical Invitation for Women to Preach. This book is all about one verse in the New Testament: 1 Timothy 2:12. This is a rather idiosyncratic, and certainly very narrow definition of "teaching", and Dickson is not convincing. But even if we were to grant his definition, he is still on very flimsy ground. Again, even if we accept Dickson's definition of teaching, i...

Collected musings of a pair of book lovers. Wednesday, January 06, 2010. Kara's Reading Goals for 2010. The Story of the Church. By am Renwick and A. M. Harman. I realized the other day that church history is an area I'm a bit weak in. I've read lots of bits and pieces, but have never read a full-length overview. I'm spurred on to remedy my weakness by the realization that for me as a Christian, church history is family history. By Lauren Winner Finished February 2010. Works of G. K. Chesterton. I want t...

Biblio-File: But what does "biblical" mean?
http://bookloversjournal.blogspot.com/2014/12/but-what-does-biblicalmean.html
Collected musings of a pair of book lovers. Friday, December 26, 2014. But what does "biblical" mean? A Year of Biblical Womanhood. By Rachel Held Evans. In this memoir, Rachel Held Evans describes how she spent a year trying to live "biblically" as a woman. She tried to follow the Bible's instructions to women as "literally" as possible. For example, the subtitle indicates how she called her husband "master". This comes from 1 Peter 3:5-6: ". The unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit" (v. 4),...

Collected musings of a pair of book lovers. Monday, January 03, 2011. Kara's Reading Goals for 2011. Last year I listed twelve books. Chosen to fill out a well-rounded set of genres .

So here are the thirteen books I plan to read in 2011. For some reason, I've not yet read this. Letters to a Diminished Church. By Dorothy L. Sayers. Pilgrim at Tinker Creek.

Biblio-File: Sad in a number of ways
http://bookloversjournal.blogspot.com/2015/05/sad-in-number-of-ways.html
Collected musings of a pair of book lovers. Sunday, May 17, 2015. Sad in a number of ways. The Death of a Church. This book is a critique of the Confession of 1967. Adopted by the United Presbyterian Church in the United States of America. A denomination that later formed the PC(USA). McIntire had left this body more than thirty years earlier, as a result of the Fundamentalist–Modernist Controversy. And formed the Bible Presbyterian Church.

Collected musings of a pair of book lovers. Monday, September 08, 2014. An important theme, but mixed contributions. The Holy Spirit and Reformed Spirituality. The volume is a Festschrift. Of sorts. A Festschrift is a collection of essays written in honour of a particular academic, usually on a topic that is dear to that academic's heart. Well, The Holy Spirit and Reformed Spirituality. Who is not an academic at all, but rather an ordinary pastor. When it comes to pneumatology. Unfortunately, the essays ...
