Weekly Round-Up: From the Blogroll and Beyond...

This week in the blogosphere (or that little bit of in on which I keep an eye):

Trevin Wax's wonderful series on his list of the Top 5 Christian Theologians in history. Can't argue with his selections.

As for the future of theology, Scot McKnight says that lies with the Wright brothers (N.T. and Christopher).

Kathey Escobar does another marvelous piece on the audacity of those of us who think we are called to change the world.

Doug Wilson has a pretty critical series on a book by one of my favorite all time theologians, David Bentley Hart. Mofast responds, in more or less exactly the way I would have.

Eugene Cho, in his own special way, responds to the Spanish eye-slanting photo with a wonderful piece called "My Slanted Eyes are Beautiful."

Michael Spencer on Christian art.

Brandon Rhodes waxes eloquent on the difficulty of evangelism for us emerging types. Great introductory photo, by the way:


Thanks to Michael Hyatt, President and CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishers, and a great blogger, for pointing out this one--the athletes that never made it to the Olympics:



As for me, been pretty busy this week with rounding off the whole Faith of Barack Obama Series and hosting Christian Carnival CCXXXVIII. Hopefully I'll have some fresh new content next week.

Grace and Peace,
Raffi

    Thanks Kathy,

    I know what you mean...so much great stuff and not enough time to comment on them all. I really enjoy your stuff though. In truth, so many of the blogs I frequent are written by men, I kind of need to stop by your site regularly for my dose of the XX perspective.

    Keep up the great work, and thanks again for your kind words.

    Grace and Peace,
    Raffi
