What a funny video.
I actually wanted to comment on your book list. i noticed you are reading God at War by Gregory Boyd. Did you know that was the first book I read as i began my research for my thesis for my master's? Despite what people may think about GB's Open Theism, he is got some good ideas concerning spiritual warfare and missions. I just heard today the fire fight he is with the Right Wingers of the States. Don't know much about the situation, but from what I've heard I think he is right on.
Enjoy God at War and remember the Leviathan is crushed! Our enemy is defeated. We have the victory.
Great to hear from you! Boyd's book is challenging, but he does make some good points about the reality of the warfare worldview. I'm getting ready to start the New Testament section, so we'll see. Maybe I'll write a post about it.
One can see the roots of the open theism debate here, but I'm not sure he's explicitly advocating it in this book. It's like a transition work -- on the way but not there yet. Unfortunately, his current theology taints my reading of this one.
Ahh, I love it. Will show my husband when he gets home! Got your site from Jeff Whitfield's blog. We belong to the same church here in Ireland. God bless and good luck with the children getting used to being in the states. Ruth
