Pride does not listen. It knows.

All biblical exegetes and theologians have a theory of language, whether they acknowledge it or not.

Too often, however, the church professes its faith but is unsure how to practice it. Even some of my seminary students come to theology classes somewhat reluctantly, assuming that doctrine is neither practical nor relevant to their future ministry.

Christianity is neither a system of ideas nor of morality but a way, a way of life.

Everyday life became infused with urgency as I tried to speak and act in ways that fit the holy script and glorified God in new contexts.

Life is something to be done, and so is drama.

I'm interested in the history of ideas and how these ideas take on flesh and influence culture, and the church.
