Life as He Reveals.

I began rethinking my xanga title in recent days, mostly over the discussion in my theology class on the nature of revelation...what is meant when we speak of the revelation of God?  I recall one my first classes as an undergrad in Asian American Studies.  The entire first lecture was dedicated to whether or not there should be a dash (-) between Asian and American.  Apparently the dash comes loaded with implications.  I was a disinterested 17-year old at the time.  (I still think that whole discussion was ridiculous).

Theology can kind of get to a similar point of 'who cares.'  I agree that there are sometimes stronger reactions against theology amongst believing circles than others.  But I've been doing theology way before landing on planet DTS, pestering my dad at an early age with deep theological questions, like if God knew our messed up state before creation, why even bother with us?  I was a theologian before my time.

My first theology exam in seminary came and went...I circled an answer on the multiple choice that was heresy...guilty as charged.  I'm learning to care about this stuff; I really am.
