My posts on K5 on theology...

That OSC discussion on K5 led to some discussion about the definition of Christianity. Anonymous Lemming said a bit about Mormonism, and Delirium had a few criticisms about my definition of "Christian" being based on the Trinity. I'm not going repeat myself here, as I can't see K5 disappearing anytime soon.

But I will repeat my comment about John Neufeld's sermon I was listening to on the drive back from the Okanagain on Sunday on the first part of the Book of Romans. It's just over a half hour, but seriously, try it for five and half minutes. John Neufeld asked the question "What is Christianity all about". The short answer is: "It's all about Jesus. But when you learn about Jesus, who do you believe? Who will you trust?"

this is bizarre! I was taking a break from studying and was looking up St. Barnabas mission (for when I go to Powell River) when I ran across Fr. Justin's blog which led me here.

Did Fr. Justin's name use to be Ed and is he, married to Sarah? That would be so amazing!

Hi,

This is Maria who? (I know a few Marias). :)

Yes Father Justin's name is also Edward. You'd have to check with him on the legal formalities of his name. I know him primarily as Edward as that is the name he uses at work. (He teaches English this year at the school I work at).
