What are you going to do about it?

More from the Archbishop who loves The Simpsons:Some scholars have cast doubt on the historic value of the [Easter] stories because of their apparent confusion and unclarity and have argued that all we have is a symbolic narrative expressing the fac

It's back! The Theologian of the Month for April 2005/Easter season is Archbishop Rowan Williams!I bought Resurrection several years ago. As part of my Easter season observance, I will finally read it. A (Methodist!) friend of mine thinks I sh

Nine Theses on Interpreting Scripture
Tuesday, 22 March 2005 3:38 P GMT-06
From The Art of Reading Scripture, edited by Ellen Davis and Richard Hays. 1) Scripture truthfully tells the story of God’s action of creating, judging, and saving the world. 2) Scripture is rightly understood in the light of the church’s rule
Race on The West Wing
Friday, 18 March 2005 2:32 P GMT-06
Hugo's blog on racial issues inspired me to blog about something I've been wondering about. Why does Jimmy Smits/Matt Santos, one of the Democratic candidates for President on The West Wing, have a white wife?Now, here are two things we could say:1

Andy at The Road Goes On is one of many who have linked to the interview with Eugene Peterson.Here's three good links from Disputations: on butt prayer, an interview with a nun from Iraq, and I'm thinking of adding "von Balthasar wakes up some r

Yes, it's true again.Cliff tells a joke and Tripp posts a prayer (Christ in the poop?)I like this picture, so I'm posting it again:
A particularly scandalous announcement
Tuesday, 15 March 2005 3:50 P GMT-06
Sometime around Labor Day (joke away!) the little Scandalous One will be born. (Obviously, we need a better in utero name - perhaps a rap nickname, Mixmaster? See what you can come up with). This Friday I'll be sixteen weeks pregnant. I went

Camassia has a follow-up to her questions post and Jason has an excellent response, much better than my off-the-cuff rant.I got three books last week: The Gospel According to America by David Dark, which I bought on a whim after reading this excerpt
Living the questions
Thursday, 10 March 2005 5:14 P GMT-06
Camassia links to an article in Get Religion about a progressive Christian alternative to the Alpha Course. The article says the Methodists have come out with their own version, called Living the Questions.I looked at the website, and this is not a

Last minute announcement: Feminists for Life
Wednesday, 2 March 2005 12:36 P GMT-06
The president of Feminists for Life, Serrin Foster, is speaking at Loyola University here in Chicago tonight at 7:30pm at the Lakeshore Campus in the Crown Center Auditorium. I'm going to try and attend. I support this group because of their focu
