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

Here are the prayer requests for this week:

1. Jeff Lichlyter- Please add Candace to the prayer list. As Teresa Smith may have told you, we are expecting our 3rd and this has been an extremely difficult pregnancy so far. She has been in the hospital twice and the ER once due to dehydration. Currently she is at her aunts house because we have very few people willing to help. It does not help that work 2 hrs away from home Sunday 12 p.m. thru Thursday night.  As well, please pray for an unspoken request.

10.  Pam Via - Last night one of my cousins Kenny Cogdill, was in a terrible automobile accident. He is in the trauma unit in Columbia, SC. His doctors said that he is expected to make it, but has a long road of recovery ahead of him.
