~ Expressions: Faces of Jesus

Challenged myself to read “an advanced textbook on “hermeneutics” (the art of interpretation). Like a medium rare big piece of steak, I’m taking one bite at a time. Anthony C. Thiselton’s “New Horizons in Hermeneutics” fits that catergory! Two excerpts here that really encouraged me to keep on encouraging the LiFe Groups to let the…

Next to CDs and potato chips, I buy books … so when I found this hidden gem insight in the context of his book from Max DePree in his book Leadership is an Art(Outstanding book + his books are always double spaced and expensive!). What he syas here, I believe it applies to any worthwhile…

Reasonably priced, decently cooked, not-too-hot (with some air-con & sufficient fan-air), occassionaly a malay guitar-singer would entertain us for a contribution, all in all a pretty-good-hang-out. The two LiFe Groups that I’m mostly involved in now…
