Serving with Eyes Wide Open

Last updated on: January 25, 2009 at 1:58 pm By Tim Suttle

I’m reading this book right now and it’s literally ruining my day… This is a story from chapter one. “Sadly, young mothers such as Isatu Turay in Sierra Leone are not an anomaly in the twenty-first century. Isatu and her husband were living in a refugee camp in Sierra Leone along with their four young children. One morning heavily armed men entered their house and demanded all their possessions. The rebels became upset when Isatu and her husband had only... Read more

Thomas Merton

Last updated on: December 10, 2008 at 7:05 am By Tim Suttle

As a part of my rule of life, I pray the hours 4 times a day. I go to Mission St. Claire, generally, and read the book of common prayer liturgy “The Daily Office” online through them. Today, the church calendar tells me that we celebrate Thomas Merton, a St. of the Church. Some of his writings have deeply impacted me. Here are a few great quotes from Merton..“[A publisher asked me to write something on ‘The Secret of Success,’... Read more

William Placher Dies

Last updated on: December 5, 2008 at 8:36 am By Tim Suttle

William C. Placher 1948 – 2008 It was a sad day for me this week to learn that William Placher died at the age of 60. Placher was a leader in the field of post-liberal theology. You can read about him here. I have enjoyed Dr. Placher’s A History of Christian Theology, which remains a constant reference, but even more so by his work Unapologetic Theology: A Christian Voice in a Pluralistic Conversation. This book has meant a lot to... Read more

Compassion by Henri Nouwen

Last updated on: October 27, 2008 at 7:14 pm By Tim Suttle

Compassion – by Henri Nouwena short review by Tim Suttle This short book plainly titled Compassion: A Reflection on the Christian Life by Nouwen, McNeill and Morrison[1] delivers a provocative and moving take on the life of compassion. The authors have no illusions of producing a theological treatise, this book actually grew out of the conversations of three friends who gathered weekly to discuss the concept of compassion as it relates to the Christian life. Compassion, they begin, literally means... Read more

Missional Church

Last updated on: October 19, 2008 at 6:38 pm By Tim Suttle

I had to read this book again last week for a class. It was great to cover the material again. I’ve got tons of notes from studying this over the past couple of years. I decided it was time to post a review: Book Review: Missional Church – Darrel Guder ed. Reading these six authors who contributed to Missional Church has been a fruitful approach to studying ecclesiology. Guder introduces the project and writers in the first chapter, stipulating that...

John Donne – Meditation XVII

Last updated on: October 15, 2008 at 12:41 pm By Tim Suttle

No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own were: any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for...

What’s the Matter with Preaching Today?

Last updated on: October 14, 2008 at 6:45 am By Tim Suttle

I just finished an interesting book last night called What’s the matter with Preaching Today? I had to read it for class and write a paper on it. It was very interesting. It’s book of essays by various famous preachers and teachers reflecting upon a famous article written by Harry Emerson Fosdick in 1928 called “What’s the matter with Preaching?” The article was published in Harpers (can you imagine them publishing that today?) Anyway, there were two essays in particular... Read more
