claims against Milbank & Radical Orthodoxy
John Milbank: Friend of Catholics or Just Plain Delusional
Red Tories and Eugenics
Can preaching again have something to say?
This blog marks the attempt to bring the theological vision of Radical Orthodoxy into the worship and preaching of the local church.
For me this election cycle and its many debates and questions concerning how our country should move forward is not something distant or abstract. I am currently preparing to deploy to war...
"The wicked are estranged from the womb;Advent is upon us. For many of us, Advent is an afterthought, an extended preparation for Christmas. A time for office parties, charitable dinners, and gathering with family and friends. Advent, while it is a time for us to prepare our hearts, homes, and lives for the birth of the Christ child, is also something far more radical. On the Christian calendar, Advent captures Israel's longing for a Savior, a Messiah to set them free from their oppressors. This Messiah will judge the unrighteous and evil, bringing justice to the earth. The prophets and the psalms are full of Israel's cry for salvation and deliverance from her enemies. Constantly, the question is put to God, "How long? How long, O Lord?"
they go astray from birth, speaking lies.
They have venom like the venom of a serpent,
like the deaf adder that stops its ear,
so that it does not hear the voice of charmers
or of the cunning enchanter.
O God, break the teeth in their mouths;
tear out the fangs of the young lions, O LORD!" (Ps. 58:3-6)
"O God, break the teeth in their mouths;
tear out the fangs of the young lions, O LORD...
surely there is a God who judges on earth" (Ps. 58:6, 11b, ESV).
