Weekly thoughts...

I've read both Captivating and Wild at Heart before, but under very different circumstances, through a very different lens and with a quite different heart. I think there are certainly elements of truth in both books - valuable points that should be thoughtfully processed. That being said, I would never base a bible study, especially a bible study for people just beginning their study of gender roles, on these books. The reason for that being that books deceivingly simplify a complex issue

I enjoyed tonight because we're finally getting to the application part of the past 10+ weeks. That being said, we threw around a lot of ideas and opinions, but didn't draw a lot of conclusions. Perhaps that was the point, but I felt unsatisfied...perhaps by my own confusion and indecisiveness. I'm looking forward to developing the ideas we tossed around tonight over these last few weeks and seeing where they may go. I've tried to start my final paper but I still don't know how to answer some of these questions...so I think I'm going to wait a little while and listen to class discussion before diving into a personal, working theology.
