Shadows of Divine Things

This site is devoted to theological and philosophical investigations of the spiritual meanings of life, current events, music, spiritual growth, nature, and learning to be attuned to listening to the 'language of God.' The name of this blog comes from one of Jonathan Edwards's journals which he called 'Shadows of Divine Things,' and later renamed 'Images of Divine Things.' As a Christian I am continously on a spiritual journey to grow more into the image of Christ, to understand what it means to be crucified with Christ. To seek the truths of the Christian Faith is of upmost importance, and to know that any truths that are found outside of Christianity are present there because they ultimately point to God. I have an M.A. in theology and apologetics and I completed one year of graduate studies in Philosophy at Marquette University.

A Meeting of the Minds . . . Or Something Remotely Similar!

This past Saturday, our usual theology hounds got together for our usual gathering. Only this time we took it upon ourselves to take some pics. These are really enjoyable gatherings which often times can last as long as 7 hours at a time. We discuss all sorts of issues, current events, theology, and assorted other things. Here are a few pics from this past Saturday's gathering.


Above is the "Motley Crew," beginning at the far left: myself, Sandy (a new and most welcomed edition to the group), Clint, and Dave.


As you see above, as the evening wears on, we commence to the backporch (or backyard depending on the person's place we meet), and smoke our pipes.



Everytime we meet we bring wine and smokes, and of course food, to have during the discussions. The choice fruit of the vine for this past meeting is shown above.

These are great gatherings, sometimes the discussions get heated, other times it can be quite motivating; most often it is just good old home grown fun. We have been meeting pretty faithfully every other week for over a year now. This is a great group of guys, some of my best friends, and I would not trade these times for anything.
