One cool thing I like to do when I’m writing something where there are already too many sources to condense and combine into a coherent whole is to add another book to read

🚨 Klopp on the USA’s impressive World Cup opener:

“This USA World Cup opener vs Paraguay is a masterclass in how a properly run country prepares for the biggest stage.

Some love saying the United States don’t take football seriously. But the painful truth is this: even the level of seriousness and professionalism they bring to the game is still higher than what we see from some nations that claim football is their everything.

Yes, they have many immigrants in the squad… but that’s not the main reason they’re a decent side. The real secret is the incredible platform, world-class training facilities, and development system they give these players. That’s the difference.

Look at the result: they came out in the opening game and delivered a scoreline better than the previous three matches combined. Thatt can’t be luck. That’s preparation meeting opportunity. This is exactly why they are so proud to be hosting the World Cup. They are not just showing up to participate… they came to make a statement and put the world on notice.”

Excited to welcome Dr. Jennifer Lee Shin to @TalbotTheology / @BiolaU to teach in our undergraduate Old Testament department.

Dr. Shin grew up in Daejeon and Seoul, South Korea.

She earned bachelor’s degrees in English and French from Yonsei University. After moving to the United States for graduate studies, she completed an M.Div., an M.A. in Biblical Languages, and a Th.M. in Old Testament at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.

She subsequently earned a Ph.D. in Old Testament from Wheaton College, where she also served as an adjunct professor.

Dr. Shin's research interests include wisdom in the Old Testament, biblical theology, and literary criticism, with interdisciplinary engagement in the themes of food and drink, vocation, and the good life.

Her current book project, Enjoying the Fruit of Your Labor: An Intertextual Reading of the Joy Texts in Ecclesiastes, explores what it means to live well amid human limitations in light of the Old Testament portrayals of work, joy, wisdom, and wealth.

Welcome, Dr. Shin, to Talbot!

[Glenn Packiam @gpackiam]

Why is it a sign of a move of God if the worship (ie singing) goes long? Why no when the preacher goes long? (Would a desire for God’s Word be a sign of an outpouring?) What about if the service starts late cuz people are talking to each other? (Wouldn’t rich felllowship be a sign of the Spirit’s work?) What about when we go and serve our community and love our neighbor and cross lines of division?

We gotta be more honest about our Pentecostal bias, which in turn was shaped by Quaker roots.

The Spirit moves in ways that go beyond our favorite expressions.

[David Fish @DavidFish7]

Charismatics: this is aimed specifically at us and it is 100% fair.

We need to stop tolerating "verbal processing" from the pulpit that contains no actual exposition of the text of Scripture.

“The mind must control the emotions. If you find your emotions running away with you, meditate on God. Meditation is the remedy.”

[Dr. Chris Palmer @chrispalmer]

Gordon Fee was motivated to become a scholar when he heard a minister say, ‘I’d rather be a fool on fire than a scholar on ice’. Fee’s conviction was that it is possible to be ‘a scholar on fire’. His life and work attests to just that.

@simon_schama @IlanBlock @Chabad While a life of faith can be sophisticated, complex—while it can yield the Code of Maimonides, the poetry of Milton, the Pensées of Pascal...

Today I’m reminded that the timelines I put on various personal or ministry projects are laughable.

It usually takes far longer for me to get anything done than I initially imagined.

Me: Look at this delightful video of kids taking it turns to list names in the Bible that start with J while clapping!

14yo biblical languages nerd daughter: Well, technically, no names in the Bible start with J.

[Dr. Chris Palmer @chrispalmer]

Early Pentecostals began their readings of Scripture with the expectation that, in coming to the Scripture, they would encounter God. They believed their engagement with the text would form them in Christ. That’s a not a bad methodological starting point, if you ask me. :)
