Simplicity: Origen on the allegiances of the Rich Young Ruler

Last updated on: January 21, 2019 at 11:51 am By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

This is part of a short series exploring what three different Early Church Fathers teach about The Rich Young Ruler.[1] Within this story we see truths unfold about the ancient virtue of simplicity. Origen takes time to examine the allegiances of the Rich Young Ruler in a way that could probably challenge any one of us, about our excessive way of life. The previous post is: Simplicity: Clement’s stark conclusions about the Rich Young Ruler on the allegiances of the Rich... Read more

Expecta Dominum: Waiting in faith this Advent season

Last updated on: January 19, 2019 at 4:31 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

There are few times since my opening blog posts with Patheos when I have shared a personal narrative essay. This is one I have been wanting to share for awhile now, Christmas reflections on a few points of interest along the way this Advent season. The Christian year I start with the question posed to me by Pastor Kent Anderson, a good acquaintance of mine in town. “Why not the Christian year?” We were discussing sermon selections at the time,...

Simplicity: Clement’s stark conclusions about the Rich Young Ruler

Last updated on: January 16, 2019 at 7:17 am By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

This introduction will serve to set up the blogs for the next couple weeks. I’m going to be looking at a Scripture that a few of the Early Church Fathers chime-in on, something that doesn’t occur often. Different Fathers have expertise in various areas of Scripture, just like many leaders do today. The passage we’ll be considering is the Rich Young Ruler (Matthew 19.16-30; Mark 10.17-31; Luke 18.18-29). We’ll look at it first through the lens of Clement of Alexandria, secondly... Read more

Santa Biblia: Immigrants, Solidarity, and My Critique

Last updated on: January 12, 2019 at 12:43 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Initially, I wrestled with the idea of posting this book review, but now I believe I made the right choice. I may not understand everything in the political realm, but I believe our President is at least attempting to make choices that will resolve our dilemma with immigrants. If we refuse to make decisions, then we have decided to allow correlated problems to escalate. I certainly do not have the answers. I don’t even know all the questions. I’m not sure... Read more

Santa Biblia: Justo Gonzalez on Marginality, Poverty, and the Border

Last updated on: January 12, 2019 at 12:42 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

I haven’t posted yet this week, although I normally post twice each week. The fact is, I have been wrestling with the idea of posting this book review. The candid reality of our President’s speech on Tuesday night greatly impressed me. As someone who lived in California for nearly half my life, I believe he covered some important points for us all to consider about our southern border. I seldom use this platform for a piece on ethics and society. ... Read more

Formation for Children: Reading to Eliseo in 2018

Last updated on: January 4, 2019 at 11:26 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

I have always contended that no one fully understands discipleship until one is discipling others. It follows then that I am not being fully transformed, unless I am investing in the formation of my children. So I count my time reading with my children or with my wife, as equal to or greater than any private devotional pursuit. Reading to Eliseo in 2018 I have read all the Chronicles of Narnia books and The Hobbit to my older two sons. ... Read more

Times of Refreshing and Restoring

Last updated on: January 1, 2019 at 2:43 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Rarely do I take the opportunity to post an entire sermon. However, this is a new year. You could consider this sermon on refreshing and restoring to be my last of the year, or my first of this year, depending on your perspective.[1] We celebrate Advent as a family with some of our own readings. So for us, the Christian year has already begun. No matter your view of time, I pray that you’ll find this sermon to be a... Read more

Doing the Work of Evangelization in a Digital Age

Last updated on: December 28, 2018 at 6:24 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going. (Ecclesiastes 9.10, NKJV) This has been an interesting year in the ministry. There was another couple years in Kentucky that were similar. I have devoted most of my time to serving behind the scenes, to writing, consulting, preaching, and teaching. This work is not readily visible now, the fruit of which will be seen in years...

Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace

Last updated on: December 24, 2018 at 1:28 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Welcome again to our Holiday series from Isaiah. Today, we’re going to complete the series with a look at the Prince of Peace.* For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9.6, NIV) Peace is often established after warfare. This is often how peace is referenced in the Hebrew Bible. So as we enter into this... Read more

at the intersection of Creationism and Theistic Evolution

Last updated on: December 21, 2018 at 5:23 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

We now turn slightly away from the discussions about a view of persons and the imago Dei.[1] This set of readings addresses the issue of God’s involvement in the creation processes, particularly in the works of Christopher Southgate and John Jefferson Davis.[2] More than likely, most of my readers will lean one way or the other. The ones who I know personally will more than likely lean toward Biblical creationism, or even scientific creationism, as I do. However, for one... Read more
