Absolutely amazing, that for centuries Christian scholars have either overlooked the doctrine of the Trinity which is plainly taught in Genesis 18-19. Equally sad, it is that whenever a pastor/minister preaches a message on Lot, he is made to be a backslider, compromiser, one who chose to live in a wicked city, exposing himself and family to the wickedness of that city, and eventually with his wife being turned to a pillar of salt and his home destroyed...

How does the church portray the beauty of Christ?
The gospel is a theological message. But, this message also creates human beauty, beautiful relationships in our churches, making the glory of Christ visible in the world today.

Culture is defined as the shared values and practices found in a community. Cultural values are then varied from one social group to the other. In contrast, gospel is static. The values and principles from Scripture do not change. Moreover, when gospel and culture tensions occur--especially in the application of the gospel message in a specific culture--do believers from a specific culture adopt the culture of the Bible? If so, is there one unified...

What if our actual lives aren't 'written' like a simple story? Nor like a book that flows neatly and sequentially from 'chapter-to-chapter' via a rigidly linear plot. But written, instead, through a series of creative interludes or moments. Further still, what if our lives shouldn't simply happen to us? But, rather, be lived through our affirmative acts of seeking 'life.' As part of an ongoing, active quest. A human quest for deeply spiritual lives...

This thesis studies the impact of teaching intelligent design to evangelical students. Science is often presented as a reason why some find sharing their faith difficult in a secular culture: teaching the science of intelligent design enables Christians to initiate conversations and overcome obstacles with those whose worldview is more Darwinian and materialist.
The professional doctoral research employs both action research and practical theology....
