Tubeman's Travels: January 2008
http://tubemantravels.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Because life is a journey. Thursday, January 31, 2008. Predestination - preparing the soil of our hearts and minds. On camp last week, one student was wrestling with the doctrine of predestination. My discussion with her was one marked by frustration - for I could not give an answer that satisfied. It drew me back to 2000 when I had a similar struggle - however back then I was the student. And at that time my pastor. Calvin goes on to encourage us to delve deep into what God has revealed. But ". On refle...

Because life is a journey. Sunday, May 25, 2008. What it takes to be a man. In today’s issue of ‘Sunday Life’ the Sun Herald published it’s ‘Men’s Issue’. The feature article was in interview with comedians Hamish Blake and Shaun Micallef on ‘What it takes to be a Man’. 8220;The whole trick to being a guy is finding out who you are and being comfortable with who you are – actually, that’s not gender specific.”. 8220;Men would be rolling around at 40 still pissed and inconsiderate if it weren’t for ...

Because life is a journey. Friday, August 15, 2008. Hat God Should be a Poet . Some time ago I blogged about a journey I had started that involved looking at the role of poetry in the Psalms. Over the pas few months I've read and thought much about this. To get back into blogging I thought I'd share some thoughts over the next week from my time spent reading and thinking and praying in the Psalms. . The next few days I'll throw up a few thoughts that give this some flesh and bones by thinking through;.

Tubeman's Travels: March 2008
http://tubemantravels.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Because life is a journey. Monday, March 24, 2008. I’m resisting the irresistible…. And so, Monday morning rolls around, and in my impulsive tenacity I got a lift out to Koorong and purchased ‘The Irresistible Revolution’ by Shane Claiborne. I was so excited – here was a guy who lived out the Gospel life. He took up residence in a poor area of Philadelphia and with a small community known as ‘the simple way’, lived a much simpler life. 183; . They grew all their own veggies. Made their own clothes.

Because life is a journey. Tuesday, May 06, 2008. Making the familiar strange and the strange familiar. Term 2 has begun and we are studying the Psalms. Ever since high school I have loved poetry – it has amazed and driven me. I hope to place some posts up regarding the Psalms. But to kick us off here are some quotes from William Brown in his book Seeing the Psalms. Just to whet the palet and remind us of the beauty and power of poetry. 160;“A metaphor, in essence, works by violating language. My verse w...

Tubeman's Travels: February 2008
http://tubemantravels.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Because life is a journey. Friday, February 29, 2008. It was never meant to be busking. I have been slowly working through Christopher Ash's Marriage - Sex in the service of God. If you're looking for a great theology of marriage - this is it (although if you want something a little less intense get a hold of his book Married to God. Anyways, one of his starting points is that a committed marriage between a man. A commitment to marriage is not just a christian thing, it is a human thing! So, I watched th...

Tubeman's Travels: November 2007
http://tubemantravels.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Because life is a journey. Wednesday, November 07, 2007. I need your help, it’s for a little project I’m embarking….which may later turn into a big project! My understanding of living as a Christian is that we are being transformed by the Spirit to be more like Christ. I take this idea from verses such as:. 8220;For those He foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.”. Does that logic make sense? Here is my question:. I am ...

Because life is a journey. Wednesday, May 28, 2008. A few weeks back I went and saw the movie “Lars and the Real Girl”. It was a good flick in the sense that it was unique, quirky and relational. If I was Michael Adams from the Movie Show (SBS) I would have only given in 3 stars because there were too many avenues it opened for us but never walked down. None the less, that is for another post…and I’m not Michael Adams. He totally thinks she is real, but she isn’t…. Or from outside us? You may have once t...
