More on the Drama of Scripture… 2012-01-13T17:01:22-05:00 Christopher Smith

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Thanks to everyone who added their thoughts to my post on Wednesday.  They have been immensely helpful in thinking about the drama of creation.  A particular thanks to Wes Vander Lugt, who pointed me to the following two books, which I have been devouring over the last couple of days, and finding very helpful.  I’m posting excerpts here, so that you might enjoy them as well…

Improvisation: The Drama of Christian Ethics.
Sam Wells.
Brazos Press, 2004.
