This year\u2019s World Series, once again, will go to the American League. Tigers. They\u2019re the best team in baseball this year.<br>\nA Northern Harrier must live in the trees around our home because I\u2019ve seen him lately. He visits our bird feeder, which is about like Michael Jordan showing up to play hoops at a local outdoor basketball court. The Northern Harrier has a beautiful tail. We also saw an American Bittern on our walk around Butler Lake Thursday evening.<br>\nLeRon Shults has a blog; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leronshults.typepad.com\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">check him out<\/a>.<br>\nGood, the Southern Baptists are debating the rise of complementarianism among many of its influential leaders. Here\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sbcoutpost.com\/2006\/10\/19\/women-in-ministry-part-2\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">the second post<\/a> of two in which you can witness the debate.<br>\n1. A <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2006\/WORLD\/europe\/10\/15\/pope.saints.ap\/index.html\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Hoosier saint<\/a>.<br>\n2. A blog about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tableandfire.com\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Saturday night talk at IBC<\/a> with some discussion.<br>\n3. Ted is <a href=\"http:\/\/communityofjesus.blogspot.com\/2006\/10\/rest-and-responsibility.html\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">resting<\/a>. Good thoughts, Ted.<br>\n4.

Do you know <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineskins.org\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Wineskins<\/a>?<br>\n9. What does it mean to be missional? Ask <a href=\"http:\/\/erika.haub.net\/casualties\/10\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Erika Haub<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/thegreatgiveaway.blogspot.com\/2006\/10\/is-ma-in-missional-church-studies.html\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">David Fitch<\/a>. And also I have to mention the fine work now at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblical.edu\/pages\/discover\/mission-statement.htm\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\">Biblical Seminary<\/a>. There is no reason here to get into who\u2019s doing it the best, but Biblical Seminary is entirely committed to the missional focus of seminary education.<br>\nSports:<br>\nThe Cubs announce the new manager will be Lou Piniella. I won\u2019t bring up again on this blog that the last ex-Yankee whom the Cubs hired was Lou Michaels.<br>\nOn the Bears game \u2026 It is easy for us to slip back into the old hang-dog Bears ways, but I\u2019m giving the fellas another two weeks to show they\u2019ve got what it takes. I still think they\u2019ll win 14 games. Last week I thought it would be easy; now I\u2019m not so confident. (Still better than cheering for the Packers who wear those silly cheese-head thingies.) I wrote this in the 4th Quarter of the MOST UNBELIEVABLE BEARS WIN IN HISTORY. No more hang-dog Bears ways.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week in travels: I will be speaking Thursday and Friday at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia.
