圣经日日行经典版日期 240: 爱中的公正哥林多后书 1:23-2:11, 历代志下 31:2-33:20, 箴言 21:5-16, 沃特斯托夫Nicholas Wolterstorff 指出，在任何对爱的正确定义中，公正都是必不可缺的部分。 这位监狱长令人印象深刻。她是位黑人女性，热情、亲切、有感染力。人们称她“詹妮弗长官”。
在启发事工开始之前，我们团队和狱方人员进行了简短会面。詹妮弗见到我们的第一句话是：“我奉救主耶稣基督的名欢迎大家。”
詹妮弗告诉我们，美国大约有二百五十万在押囚犯，平均每个囚犯每年会花掉纳税人2万4千美元。只有3%的犯人被终身监禁，剩下的人都将在某个时刻重返社会。她接着说：“因此，即便从非信徒的角度来讲，我们也希望看到这些罪犯被改变；更何况作为基督徒，我们更希望他们得到救赎。”
这所监狱不但秉承公正，而且高举爱。当犯人有不良举动或错误态度，工作人员会从爱的角度出发，帮他们直面问题。这里的犯人在言语、态度上都显得很有教养，他们不讲粗口，不在墙上涂鸦。我们参观了男性囚室，并和犯人们座谈。几个刚刚上完启发课程的犯人分享了神带给他们的改变。
神就是爱。但神也秉承公正，在《爱中的公正》Justice in Love 一书中，尼古拉斯

Reformed PodmaticsOn Listening "Enough" to Pro-LGBTQ ArgumentsOver the past several years one common accusation levied against those in favor of the classical Christian view on sexuality is that there has not been enough listening, open inquiry, and dialogue. The feeling among many is that by settling the debate within the CRCNA through synod, conservatives have effectively silenced dissent by circumventing honest deliberation. So in this week's episode, we try to tackle this argument head on in order to help everyone think through what James means - and doesn't mean - when he says that godly wisdom is "open to reason" (James 3:17).

Theologie aan de gracht#11 - Denken over de zin van dagelijks werk als brug tussen christenen en andersgelovigen met Jan van der StoepDe verbinding tussen ons geloof en ons dagelijks werk vinden we vandaag de dag niet gemakkelijk te leggen. Er is daarom al veel over geschreven. Christelijk filosoof Jan van der Stoep, hoogleraar aan de TUU en aan Wageningen University, denkt ook na over deze vraag. Voor hem is filosofie een brug tussen geloof en ongeloof, tussen kerk en wereld. Juist het doordenken van deze vraag vanuit de filosofie kan ons verder helpen. Vragen naar de zin van werk leven in de hele breedte van de samenleving. Het is de uitdaging om als christelijk denker daarbij de aansluiting te zoeken.

Mouw—author, theologian, and former president of Fuller Seminary—says that in a world of ridicule, Christians can still be people who honor the humanity of others.Mouw and Moore discuss political division, patriotism in worship services, and the powerful draw of specific candidates to certain demographics.

Liberalism, they say, has values of its own. It sneakily promotes these values as normative, and even good, for the citizens of liberal societies — whether those citizens like it or not.The philosopher and self-proclaimed liberal Alexandre Lefebvre believes that, empirically speaking, this conservative critique is pretty much true.

Re-integrateThree Things You Don't Have to Do to Be More Christian - with Dr. Phillip CaryYou're not supposed to “let God take control” of your life and work. You're not supposed to “hear God’s voice in your heart.” And, you're not supposed to be guided by God’s Holy Spirit by inner feelings of peace, intuitions, or impressions. These are three things believers have recently come to believe as being essential to being Christian. But according to our guest Phillip Cary, they are not found in the Bible and actually will cause harm – psychologically, morally, and spiritually.

Grace in CommonMusic Theology: a Conversation with Leah BoydIn this episode, we talk with Leah Boyd (Twitter: @LeahBSassy) about music, liturgy, and theology. Because of its rich theology of culture, neo-Calvinism is often assumed to be a resource for Christianity outside of the church. Less well known is the liturgical tradition produced by Bavinck and Kuyper, which is distinctly neo-Calvinistic in its attempts to progress ancient liturgical practices into the modern age. How does the tradition help us think through what churches sing, and how they sing it?

Monday Morning PreacherWhy the Ministry of Presence Can Help People in Hard TimesHow can you help people maintain faith when they are suffering? In this episode, Kevin Miller explores that question with Emily H. McGowin, Assistant Professor of Theology at Wheaton College. She said, “silence in the face of suffering is not an indefensible reaction. We should be humbled into quietness, and not be quick to speak when we encounter suffering.” When McGowin’s mother-in-law died at 46 years-old, people tried to offer rational responses, which wasn’t helpful. But the people who ministered to her with their physical presence really helped her see the love of Christ, in that diff...

He invites us to explore the problematic, unknown sections and to help our students fall in love with and engage with this text.

The EucatastropheDoes Pluralism Defeat the Common Good?Is it wrong to seek the good or virtuous society in the face of evident pluralism? In some classical Christian thought, the king was tasked with cultivating virtue, including love of God. Joel and Dave discuss contemporary Christian voices who challenge this. For liberal thinkers like Nicholas Wolterstorff, Christians cannot seek to define the common good for society in this way; doing so would exclude or coerce non-Christians. In Wolterstorff’s terms, Christians must support the ‘mechanical state’, a neutral body-protecting ‘the excellence of freedom’. Joel and Dave raise their problems with this view, and challenge the argument that pluralism a...

Christian Formation016 - Serving Immigrants & RefugeesShane and I both grew up in the church and were blessed to feel the need for Christ early in our lives. Shane had a more devout idea of his life calling than I did as a child. He saw himself building houses in Africa, while I wanted to be single and run a farm for displaced cheetahs. Nothing against cheetah farmers, but God has since given us a calling as a couple, and now as a family, to invest in a population close to His heart: immigrants and refugees.

Jump Start Your Joy®Debbie Augenthaler on Grief, Trauma, and Healing: You Are Not AloneThis week on the podcast, I’m delighted to speak to Debbie Augenthaler on grief, trauma, and healing. Debbie is a psychotherapist, the author of You Are Not Alone: A Heartfelt Guide to Grief, Healing, and Hope, and she has a private practice in New York City. After losing her husband, she was unexpectedly faced with grief, and found that losing someone that close to you causes ripples of effects; and that the impact of grief does not neatly follow the stages that we’ve all read about. Grief strikes everyone differently, and grieving is not a linear process.

When her 29 month old son, Judson, began to show some atypical physical symptoms, Christina and her husband began the process of seeking medical attention to discover what was going on.

In just five months, the Levasheffs watched their bright and active two year old lose vision, speech, and all body movements to eventual death. Throughout the short but intense suffering, Juds...

Life & FaithREBROADCAST: Good GriefA songwriter and a philosopher contemplate death, loss and what it means to grieve well.
---
Nothing in life is certain but death and taxes. But if death is something we all face at some point, and grief is part of the human experience, we talk about them surprisingly little. In fact, it’s something we don’t necessarily do all that well as a culture.
"The word death is not pronounced in New York, in Paris, in London, because it burns the lips," wrote the poet Octavio Paz in 1961. His words still ring...
