therapists, MBA’s & an afterword including the Gospel of Matthew

Last updated on: July 4, 2022 at 5:47 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

A brief article, repetitive video doing quite well in the analytics although not quite viral; and an afterword with some praxis or integration with the Gospel according to Matthew; and a little blurb about why Matthew? I’m not always exactly a bottom line reader. However no one is on the Disqus thread yet for this article: https://lnkd.in/g4AgJQUD The original news source is pretty good, you have to admit, not sure: https://lnkd.in/gh4W42ft Couple key takeaways from the bottom line/s and from...

defend the work

Last updated on: June 30, 2022 at 7:28 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

To defend the work, there are a few different ways to analyze traffic on the website. One way has to do with page visit or landing pages. In the last 90 days to 16 weeks, about the periods of some college courses I’ve actually done better than expected. I was going to share some highlights but I’m not sure if the time has passed. I guess it’s proprietary. Maybe I could offer some directed readings without being too weird. A... Read more

Thomists to the Natural Law ethicists: lead in 1) When using Scripture as a basis for ethics, are we going beyond what the Law did? 2) What is the purpose of a Biblical lifestyle or Christian ethics? suggested answers 1) No, we too are trying to apply the Word daily, although we rely on Christ instead of the rule of the Law. 2) Like the Law, our ethics point the world toward wrong and right, dark and light, sin and...

i’m going to have to start working with these scripts

Last updated on: June 23, 2022 at 2:54 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

I’m going to have to start working with these scripts I seldom if ever try to explain psychosocial theory in tandem with the Christian walk. Scripts can be applied all types of ways, including double entendre which I’m not very good at. At time, I’ve got jokes. Of course we can flip the script, in various ways as well. A pastor seemed to look right through me once and ask “Are you a writer?… Are you really a writer?…” The... Read more

a quick historical note on Juneteenth

Last updated on: June 24, 2022 at 9:40 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

St. Moses the Black of Ethiopia With all due respect Happy Juneteenth! Morning readings include Psalm 137 Please remember the people of God really can relate to the plight, and so can many Christian faith groups from the beginning of the church until now (globally) who fell under persecution. Why do you think many of the church fathers who were driven into hiding deep in Africa were called desert fathers? There are various reasons, but scholars believe there is an... Read more

“Now, that it is our business to live virtuously, and that God asks this of us, as not being dependent on Him nor on any other, nor, as some think, upon fate, but as being our own doing, the prophet Micah will prove when he says:”[1] He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with...

click bait vs. developing the why

Last updated on: June 8, 2022 at 3:03 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

We live in a period when people spend more time trying to influence people they don’t know, neglecting the people who are next to them craving their attention. Sope Agbelushi A Christian involved in a social services field posted this today. I don’t know the author, but I know the Christian who posted it, and that’s part of the point isn’t it? I’m not sure how to proceed because I’m in an ethics series, but I still like to post... Read more

Clement & Augustine on Psalm xix, ethics pt. 2

Last updated on: June 5, 2022 at 10:55 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

In the previous related piece, I tracked a groundswell of ethics. First, mores (pronounced like Moray eels) are something like innate ideals, possibly undercurrents of virtue. It is possible humans have mores simply because we’re made in God’s image, Christian, non-Christian, or becoming Christian. Second, values develop for individuals and groups as mores are articulated and agreed upon. Third, ethics are often codes, like a code of ethics or eventually formal law. Ethics is also the discipline, the field of... Read more

Mental Health, movies & the prophets

Last updated on: May 31, 2022 at 8:31 am By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

May is mental health awareness month, although there are neverending items on the calendar. It’s Memorial Day weekend, so it’s also time to remember. Yesterday was also national hamburger day. We love to celebrate. As stated many times before, I’m licensed with the state of Michigan to offer marriage, couple, group, and individual counseling because my experience and education is recognized by the state. If you’re in Michigan and in need of online therapy, I have been providing therapy for... Read more
