My critique of the modern Evangelical vision of grace is complete and handed in. I loved working with Moltmann on this one, of all my papers this is the one I think is most important this semester. I think Moltmann does a great job of keeping the tension between a personal grace and a social grace, I personally think this will be the challenge of our generation. In fact I think that is one of things that the Emergent/Emerging contexts touches that is very valuable.
I have one more little paper due Monday on Berry's The Great Work. And I've been invited into a small group of students who want to study Thomas Berry from a Berryite. I'm hoping that works out, it isn't for credit but I think it will be worthwhile.
I'm going to work on the last Worship series article right after my exams, sorry for the huge wait! Then I'll jump right into the promised Kingdom series. My paper on the Kingdom of God as it influences Vineyard Ecclesiology came back - 88% which is awesome as Prof. Clifford is a really tough marker. It was a fun class, I now officially know more than I wanted to about Roman Ecclesiology. I appreciate a lot about the Catholic Church, but I sure am glad I'm not a Roman Catholic.
Well we have snow today, the kids want to go out and I am thinking it is about time.

congrats on the great score! i'll need to get thomas berry. i read wendell berry. different berry.
For years I thought they were the same person, doh! Thomas Berry has an incredible depth to his work, but writes so simply and elegantly that this might be missed. It is not as simple as it looks. I really appreciate his insights and challenges. I'm sure I'd also enjoy Wendell Berry too. So many great authors, so little time.
