The Columbine Generation speaks with bodies: WASHINGTON — The threat of mass shootings is the defining fear for the generation that has grown up in the shadow of Columbine, a new USA TODAY/Ipsos Poll finds. Now more than one in three young people nationwide say they plan to join the March For Our Lives protests on Saturday in person or via social media. The survey of 13- to 24-year-olds — including more than 600 middle-school and high-school students — shows both the... Read more

Financial Planning Is Sexy (Mike Glenn)

Last updated on: March 22, 2018 at 8:35 pm By Scot McKnight

FINANCIAL PLANNING IS SEXY, by Mike Glenn Ask any married couple to identify the number one problem in their marriage and almost all of them will say communication. Push the question a little further and ask them what they have trouble communicating about and they’ll say, “Money.” You’d think it would be sex, but it’s not. It’s money. For some reason, we’re much more comfortable talking about sex than money in our marriages. I guess there are several reasons for... Read more

Memoir As Me-moir?

Last updated on: March 22, 2018 at 7:41 am By Scot McKnight

Too many, and that’s not just a fact but a sadness. I was sitting once with an editor who said to a group of would-be writers: “If you want to write a memoir, get over yourself. No one’s interested.” I’ll not forget Janna’s line. There was a time when you had to earn the right to draft a memoir, by accomplishing something noteworthy or having an extremely unusual experience or being such a brilliant writer that you could turn relatively...

Father, Son, Spirit: Not Creator, Redeemer, Sustainer

Last updated on: March 17, 2018 at 11:02 am By Scot McKnight

“Some Christians,” David Steinmetz observes — as I wrote this for yesterday’s blog too, “have become concerned about the use of inclusive language in public worship. The traditional reference to God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, with its strongly patriarchal overtones, has troubled Christians who feel that more neutral language should be used in the church’s confessions and acts of public worship.” In the essay on inclusive language and the Trinity in his book of essays, Taking the Long View:...

New DMin At Northern: DMin In Preaching

Last updated on: March 19, 2018 at 8:37 am By Scot McKnight

In October 2018, Northern Seminary launches a Doctor of Ministry degree in Preaching. This new DMin is built on Northern Seminary’s New Kind of Preacher (NKP) program, which is funded by the Lilly Foundation. Focusing on the life of the person, rather than the product of the sermon, the NKP program trains seminarians and Pastors holistically. The program focuses on five core aspects of the Preacher’s life: worship leader, proclaimer, collaborator, community builder, and missionary. Preachers today must adapt to rapidly changing...

Let’s Keep Our Eyes on Jesus (RJS)

Last updated on: March 18, 2018 at 8:54 pm By RJS

The next chapter of Greg Cootsona’s new book (Mere Science and Christian Faith: Bridging the Divide with Emerging Adults) broaches the subject of Adam and Eve. Were Adam and Eve historical individuals, the progenitors of the entire human race. This is probably the single most contentious question within the church when it comes to mainstream science and Christian faith. It is also a question where dogmatic pronouncements can sometimes close the door for evangelism. This is particularly true among scientifically... Read more

Education And The Pursuit of Truth, Or A Job?

Last updated on: March 18, 2018 at 12:39 pm By Scot McKnight

From Kenan Malik: [HT: JS] Nearly half a century later came the Browne inquiry into the funding of universities, commissioned by the Labour government in 2009 and published the following year at the start of the Conservative-Lib Dem coalition. “Higher education matters,” it argued, “because it … helps produce economic growth, which in turn contributes to national prosperity.” The value of education, in other words, is economic; universities are good because they are profitable for the individual, for corporations and for the...
