Oct 20th, 2008 by luke g.
It’s Monday and I’m back in the trenches of “life in Wisconsin.” Did I mention that I love it? Yes, I do. I love being here and I love serving and leading such a wonderful group of people.

Today was a long day…
Oct 15th, 2008 by luke g.
Well, I drove from 9pm last night until 5am this morning. I pulled over and slept until 8:45am and then hopped back on the road. I arrived in Cabot, AR at 4:15pm. Yes, it was a long, long day. But, I had a great time talking to the Lord and driving. Arkansas is a very beautiful state. I was surprised. I don’t remember it being this beautiful.

Late night / early morning!
Oct 15th, 2008 by luke g.
Hello everyone! It’s 2:56am and I’m about an hour away from Kansas City, MO. I’m driving down to Arkansas for the ACRC annual conference. I thought I’d just drive a couple hours and pull over but I’m having an excellent time driving (making good time as well).

Initial thoughts about the ESV Study Bible…
Oct 10th, 2008 by luke g.
As I wrote yesterday, I now have the ESV Study Bible. The wonderful thing is that I basically got it for free. If you haven’t had a chance to read and wrestle with this absolutely terrific translation, I encourage you to do so. The English Standard Version is a fantastic translation. It is obviously not perfect because no translation is perfect, but the ESV consistently impresses me each time that I compare the original Greek to the translators work. Enough about the ESV translation. Let’s talk about the actual ESV Study Bible.

A “reasoned” evaluation of the “emerging church” or… not?
Oct 1st, 2008 by luke g.
I was recently reading through the Wisconsin Christian Newspaper (WCN) and found an interesting article written by Ron Kempen of Gospel Light Ministries under the Come, Let us Reason Together… section of the newspaper. I’ve found the WCN to an interesting read simply because it presents such a wide variety of theological positions. I’ve found much to agree with and much to disagree with - so I actually enjoy reading it, though I’m not sure if I’d recommend it to people who are not critical thinkers.

Homosexuality within the church…
Sep 25th, 2008 by luke g.
As most of you know, I really enjoy reading the blog over at Reclaiming the Mind. It’s the perfect mixture of academic challenge and practical insight/question. I love it. That being said, Michael Patton has written a blog titled, Towards a Theology of Homosexuality. Wow. It’s a very interesting read. It also currently has 83 comments (and rising!).
The question that is raised: Can homosexuals be Christians?
