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

Praying that your week is going well.  Below are our prayer requests for this week:

1.  Sean Smith - transitioning to a new position with his current employer, pray the transition
             goes well.
2.  Dan Duffield - prayers for job opportunities.
3.  Lazarus UCC in Lineboro, MD - this is Beth Lessner's Mom & Dad's Church.  It burned to the
            ground early Tuesday morning.  Building was over 160 years old, only original building in
            town that was still in use.  Doors were always unlocked, so there are concerns about
            how this might affect an insurance payout (if it is vandalism, which has not been
            determined), so be in prayer that they will receive what is necessary and also be in prayer
            that the members will stand together recognizing that the Church is really the members,
            not the physical building. 


Praises:

1.  Gayle signed a new client that will begin filing claims January 1st.
2.  Ethan Smith is feeling much better and no one else in the house contracted the flu.
3.  Charlie & Jen Yokley's daughter had her casts removed.
4.  Pam Lister's parents called her on Thanksgiving.
5.  Sam & Robin Bowes, court hearing for the kids went very well.
