Christian Carnival 169
Posted by Amanda on April 25th, 2007 . Filed under: Blogging, Christian Carnival .Welcome to the 169th Christian Carnival! There are some great posts this week.
There were fewer submissions this week than last week, so I’ll keep this week’s Carnival open through Friday. That means that any post written prior to today may be submitted through Friday, April 27.
UPDATE: It turns out there were more submissions than I thought! Someone, somewhere, posted my email address as a gmail address, rather than yahoo. Luckily, I own the gmail address too, though I’ve never used it nor given it out, so the missing entries aren’t lost! My apologies for getting them added on so late.
On to the carnival!
- Dannii explores the idea that there could be another logical idea in which ideas like God’s sovereignty and our free-will meet in God and non-Euclidean logic.
- Mark, of Pseudo-Polymath, finally understands the opposing perspective of abortion in My Thick Skull.
- One of the most frustrating aspects of the “post-modern” age is that people seem to think beliefs are true simply because they believe them. Just regurgitate whatever pops into your head and plop it onto the Internet. Mark Kelly, of kainos, calls it a “blahg” site.
- Parableman Jeremy answers the question, “What might explain why evangelicals are more likely to date and marry interracially in some locations than other people might?” in Interracial Dating, the Internet, and Religion.
- This week at Light Along the Journey, John reflects on how the greatness and justice of God gives us the reason to live in faith and hope in the post Reflections on “Anyway”.
- Michael, from Chasing the Wind, encourages all of us to Stay Focused on God.
- Weekend Fisher wonders, “What if your profession had been named?” ”Don’t collect any more than you have to,” John the Baptist told the tax collectors; “Be content with your pay,” he told the soldiers. What would he have said to lawyers? Used car salesman? What would he have said to your profession?
- Metapundit wrote about going back the Church he attended as a Child that has shrunk with time in Ghosts.
- In Book: J. Louis Martyn, Galatians, Henry finally presents an overview of this commentary on Galatians along with links to the short posts he’s made as he studied through it.
- Amanda decides that it really is worth it to be emotionally intimate in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.
- Bible Archive’s Rey answers a readers’ question: Can I be saved then become unsaved?
- Carl reflects on the recent tragedy at Virginia Tech with For now we see through a glass darkly!
- Peter takes a deeper look at Psalm 40 in No Self Help Here.
- Tim has a new audio blog called 5 Minute Bible, and this week he looked at Praising the Fraudulent Agent in Luke 16.
-
Kiwi and an Emu brings us “Then I prayed to Father”? …half gripe and half query about the way a small portion of the Christian community is referring to God the Father.
- William, from Beyond the Rim, looks at self-deception and choices and how they can lead to tragedy and did so last week in There Are None So Lost…
- In Bible Version Cage-Match Round 3, Lingamish kicks off Round 3 of the collaborative series on the New Living and Contemporary English Translations. He looks at two frequently neglected factors in choosing a Bible translation: how the translations sound when read aloud, and the readability level.
- Matt commemorated the 35th anniversary of Apollo 16’s landing on the moon with two photographs from the event in Space Saturday: Apollo 16.
- Bruce at it seems to me… offers a defense of Arminianism.

I’d sent a submission to a gmail address I’d found for this Carnival at another site. I’ve forwarded it to the yahoo account.
Thank you for hosting the Carnival!

Hmm. There are usually dozens of entries. I submitted mine ( http://chasingthewind.net/2007/04/22/stay-focused-on-god/ ) but it didn’t make the list.
Eaten by a spam filter, maybe?

I had submitted to the Christian Carnival in the past but thought it had died… Can you guys reactivate the listing on the blogcarnival.com site? It says (http://blogcarnival.com/bc/cprof_16.html) that the Carnival has been discontinued and has the last one happening Jan 24th of this year…
I’m glad to see it’s back on and I’m sending a submission to the yahoo address!

Thanks for letting me be a part!
