If you\u2019re anything like me, it can be tough keeping up with reading throughout the week. Friends share interesting articles on Facebook, Twitter, etc. and you set them aside so you can read them \u201clater,\u201d only later never happens. Perhaps it\u2019s just me\u2026<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what I have set aside during the course of the past week to be read \u201clater.\u201d Cheers and enjoy!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

From My Blog<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Language Lessons: Leitourgia<\/a> \u2013 \u201cI\u2019m not entirely convinced that it is does. At least, not in the way that everyone thinks. Leitourgia <\/em>when used in its historical context does not mean \u201cthe work of the people\u201d but more accurately \u201ca public work on behalf of the people.\u201d Sometimes the public work was performed by an individual and at other times it was performed by a small group\/portion of the population, but it was always on behalf of the larger whole.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the Freedom of a Christian<\/a> \u2013 \u201cThe point of Christian freedom is that we can now choose to subject ourselves to others, to serve others, to be dutiful to others. And as such we willingly subject ourselves to the Law of Christ\u2014or the Law of Love\u2014in that we aim to live as Christ lived, to love as he loved, to treat others as he did, and to work for the salvation of all people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

From the Internet<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Overcoming Alienation: Inculturation, Christology, and Prayer Book Revision<\/a> by Calvin Lane (The Living Church) \u2013 \u201cCould it be, however, that the 1979 BCP is already a rather ingenious vehicle for healthy inculturation, a book that speaks to our particular culture while drawing us into the universal?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018Trump wants you to be in his reality show\u201d<\/a> by Stanley Hauerwas (Christianity Today) \u2013 \u201cHe [Hauerwas] explained: \u2018You only know that there is a world, if you know that there is an alternative to the world.\u2019 The Church embodies the witness of an alternative reality, the people of God, telling the world to \u201ccome home\u201d.\u2019<\/p>\n

Top Ten Reasons for Pastors to Avoid Politics<\/a>\u00a0by John Stackhouse via Scot McKnight (Patheos, Jesus Creed) \u2013\u00a010. Because no one trained\u00a0you properly to get involved with politics\u2014and a little seminar, however exciting, won\u2019t make up for that yawning deficit. (Do you think politicians can be trained to be pastors by attending a seminar?)<\/p>\n

Why I Don\u2019t Flow With Richard Rohr<\/a> by Fred Sanders (Gospel Coalition) \u2013 \u201cBut what I read here in\u00a0The Divine Dance<\/em>\u00a0is very bad. At the fringes are telltale signs of universalism, rejection of the need for Christ to die to reconcile us to God, a low view of Scripture as a morally polluted text with false statements in it, and the idea that the incarnation is itself atonement with God. At the core of the book is a motivated misuse of the Trinity. The book tends toward the subversion and replacement of the Christian doctrine of the triune God. It\u2019s a theological Trojan horse designed to bring a hostile metaphysic into the heart of the church.\u201d<\/p>\n

From the Magazine: The Hidden Spirituality of Teach for America<\/a> by Ethan Richardson (Mockingbird) \u2013 \u201cMaybe you, like me, don\u2019t think successful adulthood necessarily means a college education, but that\u2019s not the point. The point is that Backwards Planning is a way of making the invisible concrete, the future present. It is the business of bringing ambitious Big Goals into the realms of copy machines and math standards and overhead projectors. As Teach For America says it, it makes the problem \u2018solvable.'\u201d<\/p>\n
