Today is a travel day, I speak tomorrow, and Thursday I’m visiting the new LDS Temple in Manhattan, so the blog explosion of the past few days will now come to a screeching halt. Feast for famine I guess.
I have to privilege of sitting under Dr. Morton Smith this semester for Prolegomena & Theology. Instead of writing one long paper for the course, students are required to turn in a 3-5 page paper every other week, reading it before the class and fielding questions. The aim of the paper is to summarize the view(s) of a theologian of
Well, we will be mopping up in the morning. A monsoon storm came through and ripped the roof off of the room where we fill our orders last night. Thankfully, it didn’t rain, but we were only able to get plywood laid down without anything else before nightfall tonight. And the image to the right shows the radar of a
If you’ve seen the Chuck Norris and Jack Bauer lists that are floating around the Internet (evidently there is some level of…conflict between fans of both) you have the background to understand this humorous parody. As for me, well, Charles scares me. Someone has listened to way too many debates and Dividing Lines. Hope you enjoy it. If you don’t…complain

So a former Southeastern seminary student (who shall, for his own health and welfare and peace of mind, remain anonymous), sent me a shot of his yearbook. You will notice the Caner brothers were students at the school together, which is consistent with their story. But what is intriguing is the hometown listed for both of them: Stockholm, Sweden. That
I have updated the Ministry Resource List with a few items. The first is Tim Staples’ series on heaven, hell and purgatory. I have been communicating with Mr. Staples, and though he says he would “love” to debate, for reasons he cannot elucidate, he just can’t.

Very excited, but very busy. I think I will make my self-imposed deadline, and seeing the book taking form is very exciting. For those who have written e-mails to me asking for details on upcoming trips, etc. Book or e-mails. Book wins. Hopefully by the end of the week.
