(Say the Jesus Creed<\/a> morning and evening during Lent.)
\nI didn\u2019t get home early enough to post our usual Friday is for Friends, so instead\u2026
\nYou may have heard about the hermeneutics quiz I drafted up for Leadership magazine; of course, our hermeneutic can\u2019t be reduced to a series of questions. So, what we are really doing is seeing if we can generate a conversation about how it is that we read the Bible. So, here\u2019s the quiz<\/a> \u2026 and we can have a conversation about it here if you\u2019d like. The focus of many on which label they are assigned is not at all an interest of mine; instead, my interest is how we make the decisions we do make on issues like these. The labels were added later and not integral to what I think this kind of quiz can expose.<\/strong>
