Why Reading Romans Backwards? Five Reasons

Last updated on: July 13, 2019 at 9:41 am By Scot McKnight

Today is publication day for my new book, Reading 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... Read more

Sunday’s/This Week’s Collect

Last updated on: July 13, 2019 at 10:10 am By Scot McKnight

I post every Sunday the Sunday Collect from The Book of Common Prayer, but that prayer/petition/Collect is also to be used in daily prayers as the prayer of the week. O Lord, mercifully receive the prayers of your people who call upon you, and grant that they may know and understand what things they ought to do, and also may have grace and power faithfully to accomplish them; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and...

Why We Can’t Give up On Public Schools

Last updated on: July 11, 2019 at 11:36 pm By Scot McKnight

By Mike Glenn We can’t seem to go a day without someone releasing a report reminding us of how awful our public schools are. Facilities need to be repaired, text books need to be burned and rewritten and teaching philosophies revamped. Poverty, political agendas and the fracturing of the family issues have poured together to create a lethal stew of failure in the lives of our children. With all of our money and plans, at the end of the day,... Read more

Through the Lens of the Gospel (RJS)

Last updated on: June 16, 2019 at 7:37 pm By RJS

Jonathan Moo and Robert White in Let Creation Rejoice: Biblical Hope and Ecological Crisis turn from the evidence for environmental crisis and global warming to a Christian response. There are plenty of secular people who think that the Christian response (at least the evangelical response) is to put our heads in the sand assuming that God will prevent any real damage of his good creation. As Moo and White point out, there is plenty evidence that some views of creation... Read more

Naomi: The Female Job

Last updated on: July 1, 2019 at 3:51 pm By Scot McKnight

By John W Frye A series by John based on The Gospel of Ruth by Carolyn Custis James. Having established that The Book of Ruth is a nitty gritty Ancient Near Eastern story, not a “happily-ever-after” romance story, Carolyn Custis James offers her readers an unexpected perspective. Carolyn’s supported thesis is that Naomi is the central character of the book, not Ruth. Naomi goes to Moab with her husband and sons. Naomi’s family dies. Naomi pleads for her Moabite daughters-in-law... Read more

Hello from England, where we are taking a brief vacation. A little fun to fly to England on the Fourth of July! We will be visiting CS Lewis’ home, The Kilns outside Oxford, early next week. This is grace, but its Anne Marie Miller’s painful grace. Mark, here we are, face to face, 22 years after seeing each other for the last time. My heart is no longer broken.
