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 our prayer requests for this week:

1.  Glen Goff - traveling this week, pray for safety.
2.  Vicki Frye - running a half marathon on Sunday, 10/28, with lots of hills, pray she runs a good race and for safety.
3.  Andrew Lessner - having tubes put in his ears, pray the procedure goes well.
4.  Amy Leonard - gallbladder surgery yesterday (10/23), pray she recovers quickly.
5.  Mike & Helen Brown's Grandson who lives in Georgia - congenital hip issues, due to slow maturation of the bone, it may heal on its own, please pray for healing.
6.  John & Misty - my half brother's wife killed herself late last week. They have 2 little girls (3 and 2), and she was also pregnant.  It's been tough for the family and friends to come together and try to understand; and figure out what the future holds for them.

Praises:

1.  Shelly Goff's Grandfather has agreed to move into a smaller home and give up multiple concealed weapons.  His profession of faith and a moving of the 
           Holy Spirit are producing changes.  
2.  Mike & Helen Brown's grandchildren are with them this week.
