		<description><![CDATA[Remembrance is a biblical mandate. The people of Israel were instructed to remember the mighty and providential work of YHWH- even to construct monuments and memorials so as to not forget what He had done for them. The Psalms are littered with recitations of God&#8217;s action in human history. Jesus broke bread with his disciples [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=matthewjmcclure.wordpress.com&amp;blog=4010784&amp;post=905&amp;subd=matthewjmcclure&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today I finish my series on Lesslie Newbigin&#8217;s book Foolishness to the Greeks: The Gospel and Western Culture (Eerdmans, 1986). I introduced the series with this post and covered the first three essentials here. I will cover here the final four of Newbigin&#8217;s &#8220;seven essentials&#8221; for a gospel engagement with Western culture. A critique of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=matthewjmcclure.wordpress.com&amp;blog=4010784&amp;post=888&amp;subd=matthewjmcclure&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lesslie Newbigin is my hero. If I could travel back in time and study under any one person within the history of Christianity, I would choose Newbigin. Weird, right? Why not someone famous like Calvin or Luther? Or one of those Great Awakening heroes like Jonathan Edwards or George Whitefield? Or someone old-school like Augustine [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=matthewjmcclure.wordpress.com&amp;blog=4010784&amp;post=850&amp;subd=matthewjmcclure&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Not the horror movie scared but the fear of rejection and humiliation scared. I felt unprepared and unqualified for what I was about to do.
