The first minute and a half or so of this clip from The Passion of the Christ is one of the most heartwarming of the entire film (mind you, this is not exactly a cuddly film). But how accurate is it? Recently, there has been a lot of controversy online about the “masculine nature” of… Read More »

Out of Ur recently posted this video of Peter Enns asking readers’ questions to N.T. Wright. It is not secret that I find Wright a very thought provoking writer and thinker, so I was intrigued to hear what he had to say. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxQpFosrTUk] I’m not completely convinced that Wright gets everything right (sorry, unavoidable pun)… Read More »
A couple of days ago, I posted about Peter Enns’ book The Evolution of Adam. It was interesting to watch how people reacted to the idea that Adam might not have been a historical person. There were some great comments and discussion, and it became obvious from the start that there are two camps – a dichotomy… Read More »

It is not that the book contained any groundbreaking research or insight. It was a relatively light read, although not of the caliber of… Read More »
Luke slights rulers he does not care for. He does it a lot actually. As I have been reading and researching through Luke, I have noticed this tendency. It is especially evident in chapter 3 of Luke’s gospel when he is describing the rulers of John the Baptist and Jesus’ day. 1. Luke always refer… Read More »
The final genre I am going to write about is epistle. I think that by and large, the church gets the reading of an epistle pretty close to right. In a way, that is the problem with how we read everything else. We tend to apply the interpretation schemes we use for epistles to everything… Read More »
