A little over a month ago, I saw the following quote in a required seminary book our Small Groups Director was reading. I typed it up, saved it, and decided I’d post it one Saturday when I couldn’t think of anything cool to write.
Today is the day.

I’m posting it as a living breathing example of why I believe the content of most American seminary education needs a total overhaul.

Read this 1 or 12 times. I think it’s about the existence of God, but who can tell?

“And certainly this being so truly exists that it cannot be even thought not to exist. For something can be thought to exist that cannot be thought not to exist, and this is greater than that which can be thought not to exist. Hence, if that-than-which-a-greater-cannot-be-thought is not the same as that-than-which-a-greater-cannot-be-thought, which is absurd. Something-than-which-a-greater-cannot-be-thought exists so truly then, that it cannot be even thought not to exist.”

Yep, that’s exactly what a young man preparing for the ministry needs to be studying.
So practical, so helpful…
Sheesh.

In other (totally unrelated) news:
• My hero of the day feature will resume soon. Just taking a little break… and when it comes back, you’ll want it so much more, and it’ll be new and improved.

• If you haven’t invited someone to Elevation this Sunday yet, it sucks to be you. Because you’ll wish you did.

• I’ve got a surprise for you Sunday. Did I say that already?
