From Bono on Grace to Martial Arts and Evangelism: This Weeks Random Reading

Grace Interrupts Karma

Ray Ortlund shares Bono’s concise thoughts on grace interrupting karma.

Jesus Didn’t Tap

Since I have a particular interest in the seeker sensitive movement, I connected with Michael Mckinley’s disdain for the resurggence of “macho” Christianity in response to a piece in New York Times on mixing martial arts and evangelism (ex. Xtreme Ministries) as a means of attracting men to the Gospel.

What we Believe Matters (Let’s Just Not be Arrogant About It)

Great post.  I especially like these words, “we must be careful about what beliefs would cause us to unite with or divide from others. As Christians, we often make one of two possible mistakes in this area. On the one hand, we often state our beliefs so strongly that we feel like we have to divide from other Christians who believe differently from us. The sad case of Christians dividing over infant vs. believer’s baptism is an example of this. On the other hand, some Christians have such poorly defined beliefs that they will join together with people who do not even believe the basics of the gospel. Both of these are problematic.”
