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

I pray each of you are having a great week, despite the less than spring like weather!  Here are our prayer requests for this week:

1.  Harry & Patti Terrill's daughter - struggling with a less than complimentary
        comment from her boss regarding her size.  Prayers for peace and restoration 
        in this relationship.
2.  Jimmy Howard - work issue that was to come to a head on Monday.  Prayers
         for peace as he works through whatever outcome occurs.
3.  Glen Goff - travel mercies, in New Jersey.  Prayers for Shelly while he is gone.
4.  DNow - pray that this event will lead to hearts turning to Jesus and a deepening of
         their relationship with Christ.  Prayers for safety for all and for the leaders.
5.  Heather - Chris Howard's sister, still having the low grade fever and the doctors 
         have been unable to determine what is causing it.  Prayers for peace as she 
         works through this, that a cause can be found and for a positive solution.
6.  Darrell Hudson - went to the surgeon this week for removal of a melanoma. 
         Doctor determined that due to it's size, it would be best removed in the 
         hospital.  Per the doctor, it is less aggressive and he found nothing in his 
         lymph nodes, so he is not worried that it will spread.  Prayers for the surgery
         on April 10th.


Praises:

1.  Gayle & I celebrated our 18th Anniversary on Sunday.  We have been blessed 
        beyond measure.
2.  Tess - a friend she has been inviting to church for some time, was to visit RCCC
         on Sunday.
3.  Mark & Denise Tillery's daughter was home this weekend and was looking forward

         to coming to church with them.
