My Theological Worldview

This fits me fairly well. Another test challenge from Laura . She comes out more Wesleyian than I do. You scored as Reformed Evangelical. You are a Reformed Evangelical. You take the Bible very seriously because it is God's Word. You most likely hold to TULIP and are sceptical about the possibilities of universal atonement or resistible grace. The most important thing the Church can do is make sure people hear how they can go to heaven when they die. Reformed Evangelical 86% Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan 75% Fundamentalist 75% Neo orthodox 68% Charismatic/Pentecostal 39% Emergent/Postmodern 39% Roman Catholic 39% Classical Liberal 29% Modern Liberal 14% What's your theological worldview? created with QuizFarm.com

I am Karl Barth (or so the test says)

You scored as Karl Barth. The daddy of 20th Century theology.

Karl Barth 87% Jonathan Edwards 80% Martin Luther 73% John Calvin 73% Anselm 73% Augustine 53% Charles Finney 47% Friedrich Schleiermacher 47% Jürgen Moltmann 33% Paul Tillich 27% Which theologian are you? created with QuizFarm.com

June Musings

June has always been one of my favorite months. Whether it is because it brings back memories of school letting out or because I usually take a week of vacation during June, it has a sense of freedom and rest that I don't quite experience the other 11 months of the year. It really doesn't have much to do with the weather; SoCal is infamous for its June Gloom -LNAEMLC (late night and early morning low clouds) that burns off by noon. I haven't experienced a summer vacation off from school since I graduated from college 21 years ago so it's not like the school memory is all that fresh, yet the thought of staying outside and playing until after 8pm with the sun still there shining brings bliss to my mind.
I took a week off last week to do work around the house and except for my weekend camping with the church, didn't make it outside much. I think that's why it has been so hard to come back to work this week -I didn't get the play I usually experience when I go to high school camp the last week of June (my HS camp counseling experience is postponed until August, TUSD doesn't get out in time for our kids to go to Thousand Pines this year; we had to find another camp instead.)
