Greg,
Funny, your best prof was Burge….& mine was Ryrie. Strange we end up both being strongly influenced by our best/favorite profs. Oh, well….lets both go back to the Texts and study more for ourselves.

Glad you could use a comment of mine in a message. Cool! Now, you’ve set the bar pretty high and I’ll have to think of something else cool to say. Presently, nothing is coming to mind. Sorry. On the other hand, I sure am enjoying being inside….and looking at a foot of snow that has fallen today at our place.

Blessings!
Harry

Thanks for stopping by Harry. I obviously tend to agree with Burge, for many reasons, many of which are because he was my best NT professor and he shaped my theology tremendously, and I am not a dispensationalist, but it is a great read and for both sides of the aisle. He offers some challenging thoughts regardless of our positions.

Bye the way, I used your last comment on my blog in one of my sermons. It was when you were talking about the effects of the Koran burning guy. It made a great illustration!

Peace-
Greg

Greg,
Jesus and the Land sounds like an interesting read. Read a review of the book…. http://sk-schultz.blogspot.com/2008/04/book-review-gary-burge-whose-land-whose.html

I’d probably have to disagree with Burge’s conclusions, as I still hold to the typical “Dispensational Premillennialist persuasion”. (Note: On the other hand, I do not send money to Israel, so that more Israelites can return to the Land, and thereby speed up the return of our Lord.)

We can still be friends & “family”.
Harry

This was my summer reading list from 2009. I mention it because God used it to completely change my heart and life. After coming to Christ at 21 in the early ’80′s, I spent the next three decades fluctuating between desperately seeking to please a God who seemed distant, and being so frustrated with the whole mess that I would (almost) call it quits. I had reached a “call it quits” point when I happened upon an online article about open theism (OT). The article sparked a desire to know more so ….I bought and read the following books:

The God Who Risks-John Sanders
God of the Possible-Greg Boyd
Divine Foreknowledge: Four Views-James K. Beilby and Paul R. Eddy
Is God to Blame?-Greg Boyd

The result for me has been a year of the most amazing closeness and fellowship with the God who loves me and desires an intimate fellowship that surpasses anything that I had ever dreamed possible.

Greg – you may already be aware of this, but if you liked Stanley’s Communicating for a Change, he also has a leadership podcast that he’s been doing once a month for a while now – http://www.northpoint.org/podcasts – a lot of what’s in Com. for Change & Visioneering is covered in these podcasts. Thought you might like it.

Laurie,

Sorry I will update the link. We just changed our podcast software. It should be working now.

Thanks-
Greg

Iam trying to listen to your pod cast and it is not working. Do I need an I-pod to listen to a Pod cast?
