Very little. Outside of dealing with a sinus infection all week, I am preparing a sermon for Sunday and writing a 20 page paper for Dr. Wills. I’ve read some commentaries and glanced over some Herschel Hobbs stuff I read earlier in the semester.

2. What do you wish you had time to read?

“Deconstructinng Evangelicalism” by D. G. Hart and “The American Evangelical Story” by Doug Sweeney.

3. What have you decided NOT to read that you were assigned to read.

Nothing is due to be read by any certain point this semester, so I’m not neglecting anything this week.

4. What is one great quote from your reading?

Herschel H. Hobbs: “Ralph, you are not a heretic. You are a poor writer.”

Ralph H. Elliott: “I would rather you would call me a heretic.”

5. Why are you blogging? (You’re supposed to be reading!)

Because I just finished my sermon and wanted a break.

What have you decided NOT to read that you were assigned to read.

Hmmmm…. I DON’T KNOW. Maybe it is laziness.

What is one great quote from your reading?

“Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent” (From the Gospel of John: 17:3)

Why are you blogging? (You’re supposed to be reading)

Sometimes I need to relax my brain. The way I do that is by writing a post.

punchy – having punch : forceful, spirited, vivid, vibrant, vigorous
snarky – crotchety, snappish, sarcastic, impertinent, or irreverent in tone or manner

After reading the dictionary I cannot tell if he is insulting me as too low brow for his sensibilities. Yet after reading an urban dictionary definition page for snarky…it seems perhaps a nice compliment.

I am guessing my friendship with Owen is destined to be lived in a string of ambiguous adjectives. I feel the love.

Of course Barth could. Have you seen pics of Kierkegaard? His contemporaries are like some of the Boyce boys wearing girlie jeans and shirts two sizes too small for them.

I say Barth vs. Carl Henry. Henry was “uneasy” before any of us were “restless.”

I think I read that Barth was drafted into the German Army and even trained some before WWII ended.

Any takers?
