@joehussung Agree. On my bucket list of places to visit is Helvellyn/Striding Edge https://t.co/hiJG3J72sC. It is a visual metaphor of a lake to drown in on the one side and a long valley to fall down in and break bones on the other side. It requires carefulness and planning.
@joehussung I’m 3/4 the way through this now. In some sense a sequel to “Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self,” there are implications to counselors that not addressing one another as embodied souls is desecration of a holy thing because we misaddress the human as God designed.
"For us and for our salvation" is one of the sweetest phrases in the Nicene Creed. As we close out the 1,700th anniversary of that great confessional statement, I examine what it has to say about the Incarnation, and how it corrects misconceptions.

[T]heology must supply medicine for illness of the soul. It must be able to tell us how and in what way we can be delivered from our guilt, be reconciled with God, find endurance and hope in the sufferings of life, and be of good cheer in the face of death.... [A] theologian 1/4
For Bavinck, a science was any sort of disciplined, methodical, and theoretical inquiry that yielded a body of knowledge.
