A cool bonus about attending St. Stephen’s University is that they have a professor who loves Celtic Christianity. Sadly enough he was on a trip during the two weeks I attended class so I was unable to meet him. However I did take advance of the school’s library which had excellent collection of Celtic Christianity … Continue reading Celtic Christianity and the Legend of the Wild Goose

Ah… the good, old Celtic church. Sigh. What a group of radicals. As some of you know, I have a "thing" for the church in the British Isles from 300 A.D. to about 700 A.D. During this time, the Celtic church was more or less independent from the larger Roman Catholic Church (or anyone else … Continue reading The Celtic Way of Evangelism by George G. Hunter III

These are the people with huge hearts who strive … Continue reading Who cares for the people who care for the people?
I read it twice. Within three months. This, I might add, is a VERY rare thing for me as I typically only read a book once. And those books which I do re-read, I usually re-read them after a few years. So to say that I read Brad Jersak’s book “A More Christlike God: A … Continue reading A More Christlike God: Thoughts on Brad Jersak’s book
The golden age of Israel is widely considered to have taken place during the reign of King Solomon.
