Randoms

For those interested in Greek or who secretly wished they'd been part of a fraternity/sorority in college, DTS in Greek is "Delta Theta Sigma" or Δ Θ Σ. Maybe we can get matching sweatshirts.

Paraphrasing T.R. Glover, Christians of the early church out-lived, out-thought and out-died their pagan counterparts. How are we doing today, compared to the world?

I was reminded of a DTS tradition that I'd totally forgotten (thanks, Charla!)--that of welcoming theologians who have passed away recently into the league of other greats studied and honored by the Dead Theologians Society. As I mentioned in my other blog, Another Inkling, Dr. Robert Webber, a former professor of mine, passed away at the end of April. We will do something to toast him at next week's meeting of DTS.
