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

Good morning everyone,
 
Thought I would get a head start this week.  Below are our prayer requests:
 
1.  Ron - friend of Allyson's passed away.  He was not a believer, please pray
            for the family.
2.  Gayle - has a 10 AM meeting this morning with Medicaid and the doctor
              she bills for.  Pray they will straighten everything out this morning
              and she will be able to file Dr. Smith's claims this week (and that
              they will not be rejected).  Sustainability of Dr. Smith's practice
              hinges on these claims being filed this week.
3.  Pam Lister - she is with her Dad who is in congestive heart failure and it
              does not look good.  Pray for Dad and the family.
4.  School starts today for track 4, pray for a peaceful day for students, teachers
               and parents.
5.  Dearl - Pam Eubanks' Dad, in need of a job, pray he will find something soon.
6.  Rheta Teresko is still with her Mom, Mom is doing better, but she still
               has a way to go for recovery.  Pray for Mom, Rheta and the family.
7.  Duffield's - multiple showings of their home, they feel that a offer may come
               soon, pray for the decision making process on what offer to accept
               and choices about their future home.
8.  Beegee and Kathy Brown are selling their home, pray for interest from
               buyers and the decision making process on an offer when it comes.
 
Praises:
 
1.  Sam Frye went forward at camp last week and made a decision that he needs
         and wants God in his life.
