Mid-West to PTS: April 2010
http://midwesttopts.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 8, 2010. How wise are we, really? I was reading 1 Corinthians this morning and I came across this verse: (1 Cor. 1:17) "For Christ did not send me [Paul] to baptize but to proclaim the gospel, and not with eloquent wisdom, so that the cross of Christ might not be emptied of its power.". It seems like a no-brainer, and yet Paul seems to be saying that all our eloquence and wisdom can empty the cross of its power. May God show me the dangers, and speak His foolishness through me. Is it God'...

Mid-West to PTS: October 2010
http://midwesttopts.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 6, 2010. Reasons I fail to enter the presence of God daily. We're reading "The Pursuit of God" by A.W. Tozer as a church staff. I felt prompted to make this list as a result of that reading. 1) I have sinned, and I am ashamed, and so I run from the presence of God, like Adam. I don't feel as though I am worthy to be in the presence of God. 5) I do not love God as I should, and so I do not long to be in His presence as I should. Oh Lord, let this list serve as a confession, and a cry fo...

Mid-West to PTS: Summer Reading Series
http://midwesttopts.blogspot.com/2010/06/summer-reading-series.html
Tuesday, June 22, 2010. This summer, I want to get more familiar with the people who made a significant impact on theology in the 20th century. I feel like this is a major gap in my understanding of the history of theology, and so I'm going to try to fill in the spaces a bit. This blog will provide a space for me to talk back to whoever I'm reading and give my thoughts. June 25, 2010 at 2:10 AM. Christopher C. Schrock. July 19, 2010 at 9:19 PM. SOhow are the Bult, the Molt, and the Til?

Mid-West to PTS: February 2010
http://midwesttopts.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 28, 2010. The primary activities that are aimed at creating community are intramural flag football and chapel. I didn't play flag football (it was early Saturday mornings and conflicted with my beloved Manchester United) and chapel hasn't done much for me. Meals are friendly, one can always find a friendly face to sit with, but this is a fairly superficial level of connection. Labels: Life at PTS. I'm hoping to post about once a week, and I'm going to begin by working through the major a...

Mid-West to PTS: May 2010
http://midwesttopts.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 4, 2010. I made it through finals. So, I haven't blogged in a while. I had my final papers and exams the last couple weeks, so I've been pretty busy. Now that I've finished spring long term, though, I should have more time. Things I took from this class:. 2) I don't like the idea of collapsing God's justice into God's sovereignty. This seems like a rank abuse of language. Surely when one speaks of God's justice, one is talking about a particular way in which God exercises his power, ...4) I ...
