Roxburgh & Franke Session Three

Last updated on: June 16, 2008 at 6:41 am By Tim Suttle

They are looking at the idea of Gospel & trying to figure out if it is something external to culture that exists in the mind of God which we then have to figure out how to translate into a given culture. OR is gospel something that we actually encounter and discover as culture. We had quite a bit of discussion about this. Essentially we were having a conversation about what the gospel is. We talked through truth as “event” and... Read more

Roxburgh & Franke Session Two

Last updated on: June 14, 2008 at 1:27 pm By Tim Suttle

SESSION TWO: Dr. Franke’s Introduction… He told the story that he heard on NPR of Phillip Jenkin’s and his trip to Africa. While he was sitting in this church meeting word spread that a prominent American church leader was there and word got up to the pastor and so he invited Jenkins to come forward, not to speak off the cuff, but to perform that week’s exorcism. The reason they did is because “they believe the bible.” But we all... Read more

Roxburgh & Franke I’m attending a class about the “Nature and Mission of the Church,” that’s being held at Jacob’s Well in KC. I’m just going to throw some of the thoughts I’m encountering and maybe play with them a little bit. I’ll try to do a little bit each day. SESSION ONE:Dr. Franke: If we’re going to start this conversation about what “Missional church” is, we must start it with the question “whose mission is it?” The answer to... Read more

Let Your Life Speak

Last updated on: June 12, 2008 at 8:18 am By Tim Suttle

Let Your Life Speakby Parker Palmer This book Let Your Life Speak by Parker Palmer was recommened to me by my friend Shayne. It has been surprizingly impactful for me over the past few days as I’ve read through it. Here are my notes. If you are looking for a quick summer read and want to consider the idea of “vocation,” i.e., how what you are doing with your life should be connected to who you are, then you should... Read more

The Ark Once there was a father and mother who had a little son. He was a good boy and was their only child and they loved him very much. They played with the little boy for hours and he was the light of their life. The little boy was a naturally friendly child. From and early age the father and mother taught the boy about the importance of friendship. They modeled friendship for the boy and they trained and... Read more

Boulevard des Capucines, 1873 by Monet. This has always been one of my very favorite paintings. I love Monet anyway, what’s not to like…but I love that this picture drew such criticism at the time. I love that it was part of the first exhibit of impressionist art and that it is so beautiful to look at. I usually spend quite a bit of time in front of this painting when I’m at the Nelson-Atkins here in town, so it... Read more

visio divina

Last updated on: May 29, 2008 at 6:21 am By Tim Suttle

Our church staff did an exercise called visio divina yesterday. I borrowed and adapted this idea from my friend Dan Wilburn who has been experimenting with it lately. We all know of lectio divina or “divine reading” of the scripture. The visio is about a divine viewing. It’s based around the idea that this is a God-bathed world and that God is lurking everywhere, always ready to show up and teach us something about ourselves, God’s self, or the world... Read more

Intuitive Leadership Session 4

Last updated on: April 27, 2008 at 7:15 pm By Tim Suttle

SESSION FOUR: Before it was called Europe, this land was known as Christendom. In the post Christendom era of the church we don’t “have” a mission, we “are” a mission…the gospel is not something which is proclaimed so much as it is something that is embodied. Thus we must own the idea that theology is always incarnational. [ ASIDE: I would agree with that statement, except that I would emphasize that this should have always been our theology/ecclesiology. I have... Read more
