Happy Birthday to my older sister! Paying it forward: When Dale Schroeder died, no one would have guessed how wealthy he was or the effect he would have on the lives of more than two dozen strangers. Schroeder, who never married or had children, worked at the same company for 67 years. He was a humble man who grew up in poverty and never had the means to attend college. His friend Steve Nielsen told CBS News that Schroeder was a “blue... Read more

What Does It Mean to be a “Nicene Christian”?

Last updated on: November 16, 2019 at 11:34 am   By Scot McKnight

By Andrew Arndt, who is a teaching pastor at New Life Church and lives in Colorado Springs with his wife Mandi and four kids. In the candlelit basement of our church plant, we huddled together each week and took the ancient confession on our lips: We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth… We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ the only Son of God… We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the... Read more

Why Read Paul’s Romans Backwards?

Last updated on: November 13, 2019 at 4:22 am   By Scot McKnight

About Reading Romans Backwards. Why read Romans backwards? First, since most who read Romans are swamped by the theological depth and debates about it, by the time they get to Romans 9 they may be exhausted and even more if they get to Romans 12. If we don’t read it first we may never get to it, and if we never get to it we will not be reading the letter in its own, fuller context. Second, our readings of Romans,... Read more

Miracles Then and … Now? (RJS)

Last updated on: November 15, 2019 at 7:03 am   By RJS

Luke Timothy Johnson concludes his recent book Miracles: God’s Presence and Power in Creation, with some pastoral advice – for pastors in particular. There are some great insights and ideas in this chapter.  The problem is a serious one. It goes beyond a belief in Scripture to accept divine agency as a very personal reality. The challenge facing contemporary Christians in the matter of miracles is daunting. … Incarnation and resurrection alike evade strictly evade strictly historical categories. Because they... Read more

Gospels, Biographies, Histories

Last updated on: November 9, 2019 at 1:49 pm   By Scot McKnight

If the Gospels, our four Gospels in the NT canon, are biographies in genre what does that mean for history? Craig Keener in what will become a major milestone Christobiography: Memory, History, and the Reliability of the Gospels (#ad), addresses this question with circumspect analysis and cautious conclusions. I have now worked through this 500 pager  and think his conclusions are worth posting here as I encourage every theological library to purchase a copy of this book: Traditional skeptical and fundamentalist... Read more

Mary and Marginalizing Women (by Kelly Edmiston)

Last updated on: November 13, 2019 at 4:21 am   By Scot McKnight

 By Kelly Edmiston If you could have lunch with one person who would it be? This is an “ice breaker question” that I have often used in youth ministry settings over the last thirteen years. Good “get to know you” questions are hard to come by. And this question helps me understand what my students are interested in. It helps me know what motivates them and interests them. My students will choose to have lunch with Rihanna or Kanye or... Read more

Now This is an Evangelical Theology

Last updated on: November 9, 2019 at 10:16 am   By Scot McKnight

It’s a debate not likely to lead to an overwhelming consensus, but Daniel J. Treier’s  Introducing Evangelical Theology builds on a credal approach. What is added to the lines, between the lines, before the lines, after the lines… all matters for an evangelical theology. In a kind of Barth-like move he opens with nothing less than 15 theses for this evangelical theology and here they are: Christian theology is a communicative practice of faith seeking understanding, in response to the... Read more

All About Incarnation (RJS)

Last updated on: November 10, 2019 at 6:05 pm   By RJS

We’ve been working through Luke Timothy Johnson’s recent book Miracles: God’s Presence and Power in Creation. The focus in this book is on the New Testament miracles, signs and wonders of Jesus recorded in the Gospels as well as the by the Apostles recorded in the book of Acts. Having looked at the miracles recorded in the synoptic Gospels and Acts, it is fitting to conclude with the book of John. The book of John contains no infancy narrative, and... Read more
