Many of the faculty are members. After six years of 'grin and bear it', we look forward to Sunday morning, Wednesday night and Thursday morning.Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10446337419977796973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8561104.post-1905124195742829832011-01-27T08:33:29.098-06:002011-01-27T08:33:29.098-06:00I'm going over the Amazon right now and order ...I'm going over the Amazon right now and order some books by those men.

Last night we watched a video of an interview with Dr. Charles Townes, Nobel Laureate for the creation of the Laser and a life long Christian. His current interest is in extraterrestrial life...Dr. Townes believes in integration of science and theology and that's how he lives his life. Refreshing. And really dynamic, considering the fact that he's 97 years old, it's amazing.<br />Dr. Cootsona's book is also worth a read. It was written while he was still a pastor in New York. (2002) He also has a new book, 'Say Yes to No' which I am just starting on.<br />All of this is to say that some Christians are well into integration and I'm sure glad we happened to change churches. We're now at a church that welcomes change and encourages thought.Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10446337419977796973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8561104.post-58175147625781571592011-01-24T17:13:27.791-06:002011-01-24T17:13:27.791-06:00I'm almost afraid to undertake an exercise in ...I'm almost afraid to undertake an exercise in thinking on this subject.Lornahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08976144449873569523noreply@blogger.com
