Keller and Kreeft on Tolkien

Tuesday 03 June 2008 at 7:34 pm I did a bit of mining in the Redeemer Sermon store and found a little seminar that Tim Keller gave on Tolkien. I've loved Tolkien ever since I first read the Hobbit and LOTRs in High School. I recently reread LOTR and enjoyed it far more. Peter Kreeft also has a bunch of audio on Tolkien. The one that might be missed is the one on language (I think that's the one, it's been a few months since I listened to it) but Keller in the Q/A time at the end of the second MP3 gets into this same area the Kreeft treats more extensively in terms of heraldic (sp?) language. Keller deals with some explanation of what Tolkien wrote in terms of explaining why Theoden spoke the way he did and why  modern couldn't and visa versa getting at the idea of how immersion in a worldview is necessary for creating art from that worldview. Really interesting ideas. pvk

Sequence of Gospel Stories

Friday 09 May 2008 at 11:46 pm

There is a common sequence to many gospel stories:

Event: Christianity is not fundamentally good advice, it is good news

Wonder/dissonance at the event: We don't know what to think about what is happening

Revelatory Interpretation of that event: Someone preaches the gospel, tells us what the even means

Invitation: we are invited into the stream of history by which God is bringing the renewal of all things
