Rededication
Typically when I think of "rededication" I think of some guy crying and walking down an aisle during a song. This isn't that kind. But personally Kristin and I have had a rededication of sorts to the importance of the Bible in our lives. You might think that this would be a given for a Christian, but some interesting events in our lives this year have caused us to think hard about what we mean when we say that the Bible is "inerrant."
I have been revisiting some big questions that I hadn't delved into for a while, such as:
How do I define Biblical inerrancy? Is inerrancy critically important or not?
How important is it to go to a church that uses expository (verse-by-verse) teaching? Is topical okay?
All of these questions have been brought on by some recent events, such as reading Rob Bell's Velvet Elvis and some other issues. I will go into more detail in some posts to follow.
