Karl Barth’s Christological Ecclesiology by Kimlyn J. Bender

by Luke Geraty | Nov 23, 2013 | Posts

There’s been a lot of talk about Karl Barth around here at ThinkTheology.org… mostly because Able Baker is doing Wednesdays with Barth through LOGOS Bible Software (introduction here and why you should read Barth here). Prior to Able getting on the Barth...

Rohr’s footnotes and quoted sources will lead you farther astray than Gungor’s tweets.

One easy way for pastors and church leaders to kill a church? Micromanage and control EVERYTHING. As Bill Jackson said:

“The leader does it. The leader does it while a disciple watches. The disciple does it while the leader watches. The leader leaves the disciple doing it.”

Before I die, I would like to attend the Olympics somewhere… so if anyone has a spare $10,000 laying around, I can help you make my dreams come true.

I almost went to the games for a mission trip a few years ago, but just couldn’t swing it. Maybe someday it will happen!

I enjoy Chick-fil-A. And Notre Dame is a Catholic university.

That’s all.

I will never forget the day you were born and I am *mostly* thankful we can talk almost every day thanks to FaceTime and texting… except when it’s 4am here on the west coast! Haha! LOVE YOU!! ❤️❤️❤️

She is an Anteater and we are Anteater parents! 🐜🍽 Mom and I couldn’t be any more proud of her! She is amazing! I haven’t cried yet, but I came awfully close and know that by September there will be tears!

“And now you stretched forth your hand from abov “And now you stretched forth your hand from above and drew up my soul out of that profound darkness because my mother, your faithful one, wept to you on my behalf more than mothers are accustomed to weep for the bodily deaths of their children.” — St. Augustine When Augustine gave thanks to God for the prayers of his mother, he put into words what many of us feel about our mothers. I would not know Jesus like I do were it not for my mother. Her prayers and faithful love impacted me in ways I can hardly put into words. And her love for people, especially those who are often overlooked, made an indelible mark upon my soul. I thank God for her daily (and my dad too!). And how can I overlook my sweet, kind, and beautiful Dawn? Mother to our five children here and two in heaven with Jesus. What an amazing women you are! Watching you love our kids has been one of the most beautiful things I have ever witnessed! What an honor it has been so far... and, Lord willing, I hope for many more! I love you both. Thank you for all you have done and continue to do in my life.

I had a great time hanging with one of my favorite I had a great time hanging with one of my favorite biblical theologians, Dr. Ben Blackwell! Dawn & I joined Ben & his wife, Heather, with our Texas besties Nate & Jessica. Ben co-wrote a FANTASTIC book on engaging theology and you are interested in that topic, check out the podcast I did with him (LINK👆🏻IN👆🏻BIO).
Did you know that 2 out of 5 people suffer from me Did you know that 2 out of 5 people suffer from mental illness? And 15% of the world suffers from some sort of disability (1 BILLION people)? I think churches need to be intentional with both WELCOMING people with disabilities and with INCLUDING them! It's not enough to just engage these beautiful people who are created in God's image -- they must also be given opportunities to use their gifting and abilities to serve God and bless others. I recently recorded a podcast with one of the leading scholars on the subject (Louise Gosbell) and I was so blessed to hear about what the Bible teaches about this subject, how we need to read stories from the Bible In their context, and what churches can do. 👀 YouTube link in bio 👆🏻 If you are curious about how we should think about people with disabilities, how churches could be more intentional toward this group of people, as well as how those of us who believe in healing and who are charismatic can avoid treating people as if they are commodities, THIS PODCAST IS FOR YOU! 🙌🏾 I'd really love to invite any of my friends who are pastors, theologians, biblical scholars, or followers of Jesus who are interested in a really important subject to share, like, and let me know your thoughts on the topic of discussion!

Lots of hard work went into pulling off three services but our team saw hundreds of people, including lots of new faces! Plus people got baptized! Our volunteers are the best, and I want to give a special shout-out to the music team, kids team, greeters and everyone else! Thank you!
I ordered my mom one of the most important books r I ordered my mom one of the most important books recently published on the history of the Church. 📖 The author, Ramon Mayo, provides a thorough history of how the message of Jesus spread throughout the Middle East and Africa and really does a fantastic job demonstrating the diversity of both Church History as well as the Kingdom of God. 🌏 For example, he writes: “When you look at real Christianity, you’ll see a multicultural cloud of witnesses cheering us on. This cloud of witnesses goes all the way back to the first century. Yes, before Constantine. This cloud of witnesses can be seen as a many-hued hall of faith. They are from Africa and Asia. They cannot be seen as European, although some have been represented as such. They are as African as Desmond Tutu and as Asian as Genghis Khan.” I was honored when Ramon asked me to write a recommendation: “Ramon’s book, Reclaiming Diversity, introduces readers to the beautiful story of God’s mission and how it did not end up going to the majority world from Europe but came from the majority world, especially the Middle East and Africa. Tracing the contributions of numerous African and Asian theologians and church leaders, this book helps correct the narrative that has sought to remove or ignore the important historical events and people that have helped advance the cause of Christ throughout history. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in Christianity, church history, and modern missions. This is an important work that you NEED to read!” Pick up a copy for yourself and your mom! ❤️ LINK IN BIO 👆🏻
In celebration of black history month , I have bee In celebration of black history month , I have been releasing podcasts featuring some of my favorite people, exploring a wide range of subjects! There are video & audio versions! ▶️LINK IN BIO▶️ It started out with @mayotron talking with me about his new book, “Reclaiming Diversity” (which is AMAZING) and why celebration the contributions of black people is important. Ramon is amazing and his book on the history of the church is a really important publication. I’m going to actually do a #TheoVlog on it soon. You need it! I then had @awuorek2 on to discuss Africa, worship, & Sacramental Theology. Edgar is a friend who lives in beautiful Kenya and one of the craziest motorcycle drivers I’ve ever driven with, ha ha! I’ve spent time with him in his country and I can’t wait to go back! The next episode I did with @thestephsnow122 and we talked about ethnic reconciliation and her life calling of pursuing justice in every area of her life. She’s a lawyer and daily involved in pursuing justice... plus she has one of the coolest cats in the world (Thurry). My next convo w/ Donnell was an exploration of liberation theology and critical race theory. I love Donnell’s thinking, determination, and overall commitment to seeking the freedom of all! And this morning I dropped the latest discussion that I had with @thethirdman_music about the importance of lamenting in our theology of worship. Reese’s son was murdered a couple of years ago (which I learned about ON the podcast) and his son’s killer walked away free, which caused him to become even more committed to pursuing justice. All I can say is that I have really enjoyed learning from these people, each created in the image of God, filled with the Spirit of God, and gifted in unique and important ways. Tomorrow morning I’m recording an episode w/ @mayotron and @awuorek2 together, so I think that’ll be the last BHM contribution, but most certainly not the last black voice on the podcast! . . . . #blackhistorymonth #socialjustice #podcast #theology #sacramental #church #pneumatology #doctrine #sacramentallife #hermeneutics #jesus #scripture #charismatictheology #theologymatters #prayer #liberationtheology

I arrived on Monday for a quick four day visit to see my parents, sisters, & cousins and will be heading home soon. Bummed not to be with my wife and kids but grateful to be with my dad and mom. My family made it special and we ate some really great Korean food and my favorite — ice cream cake!
Cyril successfully survived #football this year. B Cyril successfully survived #football this year. Bummed they didn’t get to play as many games as we hoped, but I’m really proud of him for doing his best and keeping a positive attitude. The coaches did all they could to make this season happen, despite the challenges everyone’s facing and I think I speak for all parents when I say that we’re grateful they did their best too. I should add that it was really hard to enjoy that 🌞 today too. 70 degrees in February is tough work.
