The Anglican-Episcopal Divide Widens Further
NT Wright offers a honest and somewhat heavy-hearted perspective regarding The Episcopal Church (TEC) in the U.S., and their decision to further formalize their decision to appoint to all orders of ministry, persons in active same-sex relationships. This marks a clear break with the rest of the Anglican Communion.
"I Am Second"- Incredible Personal Stories

Alban Institute Releases Special Report on Transition into Ministry
Washington, D.C. (August 28, 2008)-For years religious leaders have debated the strategies for effectively preparing seminary students for ministry...A new report from the Alban Institute in Washington, D.C. calls attention to a promising set of recent experiments conducted by the Fund for Theological Education's Transition into Ministry Program (TiM)...Based on the assumption that pastors will be better prepared to lead congregations when they have had the opportunity to become reflective participants in a local community of practice, the TiM studies seek to counter a two-centuries-long trend of viewing pastoral preparation as something that is largely completed upon graduating from seminary.

The Image of Protestant Evangelical Worship: A Word of Clarification

The images in this series have not been posted in any particular order, or with any strong "agenda" in mind. Yes, I've been aware of the likelihood that some of the images would provoke negative sentiments, but I've also been surprised that some which I thought would be viewed as positive were, in fact, viewed differently (or vice-versa). Together, they do not present a comprehensive or complete picture of protestant evangelicalism. Despite this, I think they've succeeded in stimulating some fascinating discussion. Well anyway, Thursday's post will be the final image in this series. Thanks, everyone, for having made it so interesting.

Thank you, Chris. I have loved following this series of posts - both the things that you, through posting mostly pictures and not words, have asked us to consider, and the interesting ways that everyone has responded to the images. Seems like the pictures have provoked a deeper level of passionate response than words often do (not meaning your words here on the blog, just in the abstract - I love your posts!).

I too have enjoyed this series and the comments, although, like you, I have been surprised by some of the negitive reactions to some of the images. And I don't really think that Hinn and Copeland belong under the heading of Protestant Evangelical Worship, although it is important for us to consider the influence they have on Christianity today...As for Selective Syncretism, there is a subject I can really sink my teeth into...blog on
