Black History month in Theology

-----Black History month in Theology------
This year, I want to introduce contemporary theologians. I commend to you the book Glory Road. It is an anthology of writings from outstanding Reformed Evangelical theologians who happen to be black.

-Week 1- writing comes from Thabiti Anyabwile. Enjoy the link to his outstanding article.
-Week 2 - Our journey brings us to Emmanuel Kolini, Archbishop of Rwanda, in the Anglican church. He was instrumental in the explosion of ministry in the North American church. Enjoy the link to his outstanding article.
-Week 3 - I want to introduce you to Voddie Baucham, Senior Pastor of Grace Family Baptist Church, Spring, Texas. Here is his article.
-Week 4 - Our final selection of writing comes from Louis C. Love, Jr. He contributed an article entitled "The Doors of the Church Are Opened!" for the book, Glory Road. The following story includes a link to hear him speak about his journey. Enjoy the link to his outstanding article.
-Extra installment - This is an extra installment of our February focus. I have included this article because what Dr. Fred Luter is about to accomplish is enormously significant. He is set to become the first black president of the Southern Baptist Convention. Amen and amen!!!!!!!!

Praise/Prayer Requests

Below are our prayer requests for this week:

1.  Traveling mercies for the Goff's (leaving this Friday)
2.  Prayer for Shelley Goff's Mom as she watches the kids while they are gone.
3.  Matt Mercer is having rotator cuff surgery.
4.  Sheila - Neighbor of the Howard's we had been praying for her husband.  He passed away.
5.  Rob Martin's Mom - wisdom for decisions, comfort for the family as she continues to decline.
6.  Will Martin - dizzy spell Sunday morning, they are becoming less frequent, but continued pray for full healing.
7.  Armand - gentleman the Howard's have asked us to pray for salvation for.  He is traveling to Israel and plans to take the "Jesus" tour.  Pray for an awakening within his soul.
8.  Harold Lessner - Gall bladder surgery...pray for wisdom for the doctors as they are not exactly sure it is his gall bladder.
9.  Jen Yokley - has an interview for an internal job, pray for wisdom that she will make the right decision.
10.  Dorris Hufstettler - her washing machine broke down and she needs to replace it, pray for provision. 
11.  Gayle just spoke with her sister and they are taking her sister's mother-in-law across State lines to another hospital.  It seems she fell in the bathroom and injured her head.  When they scanned her at the local hospital, they found bleeding on her brain, but the doctor seems to think it might possibly be from cancer and not from the actual fall (based on the type of bleeding he was seeing).  She has Alzheimer's and up until last Friday was able to put sentences together even if what she was talking about did not readily make sense.  As of Friday, she really has not been able to speak coherently.    
12.  Pray for Dorris Hufstettler as she had to put down one of her dogs today.  

Praises:

1.  Mike and Helen Brown's Son and his Wife will be celebrating their 1 year anniversary shortly, it has been a rough year, but they are looking to many, many more years together.
2.  Client of Patti Terrill who had head injury from baseball bat is now in Rehab.
