Incidental Writings on Books, Ideas, Theology and Culture. Monday, September 22, 2008. Obedience and Harvest Customs: Obedience Part I. Here begins the first installment of my second attempt at a conceptual rehabilitation. I'm officially adopting concepts I find useful but that are currently orphaned by our culture including, largely, the church and trying to get them a fair hearing. I previously took a stab at the word 'authority,'. Purpaleanie and Other Permutations. Were my parents right or wrong.

This is the second of a multi-installment 'series' on the idea of authority, both in general and as it relates specifically to theology and the Church.

Incidental Writings on Books, Ideas, Theology and Culture. Sunday, August 31, 2008. Patrick Henry College, Paradigm of the Evangelical Liberal Arts? I recently listened to a podcast. Of a booktalk by Hanna Rosin giving a talk (about a year ago) on her book,. God's Harvard: A Christian College on a Mission to Save America.

Incidental Writings on Books, Ideas, Theology and Culture. Wednesday, January 07, 2009. Founding Fathers . of Self-Improvement. It should be no surprise then to find elements of this nationally characteristic – self-involvement? That I could wear out of my mind every mean and base affectation,” Adams once vented to his diary.
