The 3 Nails

March 26, 2009 in Blog Comments off

What do the sufferings of Christ teach us about how we should live? What would the world be like if Christians were actually infatuated with suffering?

This is the focus of a new article series I am working on for Holy Week called The Three Nails. I hope you will join me and the guest pastors and other professionals who will help us think through and hopefully answer these questions.

This is the season of Lent. Many are taking this time to fast from certain things such as food or entertainment. This season is to some a sort of a spring cleaning. My old church used to progressively reduce the number of instruments on the stage during worship from week to week and minimize lighting and other visuals as a visual expression of what it means to get to the heart of what worship is really all about.

So, during the next couple of weeks, you will see this website slowly become increasingly minimal. Think of it as a digital way to practice lent (“digital lent”). Some of it has already taken place (the background is gone). During Holy Week, the focus will be solely on the articles related to The 3 Nails series.
I hope you will join me during Holy Week as we discover what it means to live the Christian life.

I love theology and the challenge of making deep teachings non-boring. Let's face it, most of the time we hear theological teaching, it really is boring. Does it really have to be that way? Nope.
