    Two Cent Tuesday – How important is Blogging?
    It’s been a while since we had a Two-cent Tuesday. Time for some interaction here — chime in! Is it midterms yet at your seminary? Here at Multnomah we’re stepping into that season, wading into the deeper waters of papers and projects and exams. When life gets busy like this, what priority do you place on blogging? (Answer according to your true practice,...

    Two Cent Tuesday – Who Would You Interview?
    Well, it has been a while since we launched our first Going to Seminary interview. We were honored to start with such a great professor and theologian like John Frame, however, that did set the bar pretty high for us. That said, I’ve been thinking about who we should interview next. So, for today’s poll I thought I’d let you determine our next interview....

    Two Cent Tuesday – Staying Organized
    We have a huge variety of technological aids at our dispense to help keep us organized.  From PDAs to Blackberrys to online calendars, our lives can be organized at the tip of our fingers.  I’ve never gotten into those methods.  In fact, I don’t even use those small agenda books can you throw in your backpack.  I try–I always buy one at the...

    Two Cent Tuesday – Bible of Choice?
    I spent most of last week working to launch a new website (www.best-bible.org).  The site is designed to help people understand the differences between Bible translations and offer some resource suggestions, like Bible software, Bible mobile applications, and other Bible resources.  Since the project was pretty big and I didn’t have time to build the site...

    Two Cent Tuesday – Blogs We Love
    I recently trimmed down my google reader account from 100+ blogs to 70 blogs.  It is amazing how much great (and less than great) information is out there.  At times I wonder what our church fathers and mothers would think about blogs… Think about Gutenberg. You think he’d be a blogger?  And I wonder if Luther would have used a hammer and nail to...

    Two Cent Tuesday – Influential Factors
    I was thinking yesterday about the process I went through that lead me to seminary.  It was a long  and drawn out process (here are some excerpts).  While there were MANY factors that influenced my decision to attend seminary, for me the Bible was most influential.  The more I read Paul’s explanations to Timothy and Titus about the role of the Elders...

    Two Cent Tuesday – Going on Vacation?
    So, I’m sitting in the airport with my wife and we’re getting ready to head home from a short mini vacation. We knew that we could use some time away, just the two of us, after such a crazy 6 (actually 12) months. So, I arranged for my mom to come watch the kids and we were cleared to take off. The destination was a toss up for us. It was between going...

    Two Cent Tuesday – To Twitter or Not to Twitter
    It would seem that Twitter is the new cool thing these days. You can’t get very far on the blog-o-sphere without people talking about twitter. Pastors twitter, Missiologists twitters, Professional Bloggers Twitter, Moms Twitter (not mine, of course…) Twitter is everywhere… Up until now I’ve stayed away from Twitter because, seriously, do I really...

    Two Cent Tuesday – Spiritual Disciplines
    Fellow GtS writer, Jeff Patterson and I have been talking about Spirituality. It seems today everyone is spiritual. I remember reading an article in which atheists were describing themselves as spiritual. Jeff and I were talking specifically about the Spiritual Life which got me to thinking about Don Whitney’s ministry devoted to the Spiritual Disciplines. Dr....

    Two Cent Tuesday – After You Graduate…
    This question is in honor of all this year’s seminary graduates. Now that the sentimentality is out of the way, let me be clear… I hate this question. I guess the thing that I hate about the question is that it seems to me that, by asking it, seminary is being reduced to a means to an end. While, for some, I know it is just that… but for me, seminary...
