The Outlook on Year D

Meanwhile, over at the Presbyterian Outlook ...

YEAR D: Scriptural & Nutritional Supplements for the Body of Christ A Presbyterian Outlook 90-minute Webinar Follow the link above for more info.  And a big thanks (er, "hat tip") to Jack Haberer for the nice write-up in the October 31, 2011 issue — Reformation Day! — as well as thanks in advance to Jana Blazek for help with the upcoming webinar.

Here's my article at the Outlook

Here's my article over at the Outlook website, but I have to say, all the pretty pictures in the print version were really nice!

And here is editor Jack Haberer's introductory piece.

Here's hoping you can join the webinar on Tuesday, November 8. I'll have a few survey questions at the end, so you can offer a bit of constructive feedback for future directions.

The Lord be with you! - TMS

Yes, but there is still life in the Word, and faith remains a matter of spiritual birth by the will of God!

Over at Drudge, a preview of the ever-provocative Mr. Buchanan's new book, which raises the demographic alarm in the spirit of the ever-hilarious and ever-depressing Mark Steyn, and which contains this gloomy quote:

"If [Christopher] Dawson is correct, the drive to de-Christianize America, to purge Christianity from the public square, public schools and public life, will prove culturally and socially suicidal for the nation. ... 'The last consequence of a dying Christianity is a dying people. Not one post-Christian nation has a birth rate sufficient to keep it alive....The death of European Christianity means the disappearance of the European tribe, a prospect visible in the demographic statistics of every Western nation.'"

On a brighter and more hopeful note, Year D: A Quadrennial Supplement to the Revised Common Lectionary, is due out next year (2012), on Cascade Books.

"Do not turn to mediums ..."

Something of which our parishioners and the listeners to our sermons should really be made aware, if they have not long since figured it out. I wish the man well who had the guts to say it, especially considering his unfortunate handle: Chaput! Long may he wave.
