Walden on Theology, Church and Mission

I love to follow James Walden’s blog.  He doesn’t post very often, but when he does it makes me slow down and think.  I love the fact that he isn’t posting unless he has something to say.  Sometimes I struggle to keep up with his line of thought - James is a very deep thinker - but I love having to slow down to read something deep.  I have put off reading his latest blog post for a week.  I just haven’t had time to sit down and work my way through it until tonight.

As usual it is very good stuff.  James writes about the lack of theological depth in many of today’s churches compared to Paul’s very theological teaching to the churches of his time.   James also touches on the false dichotomies between theology and mission, or theology and real life.  As I have said before, theology touches on everything and is a deep part of our lives.
