Christian universalism is a Christian theology focused around the doctrine of universal reconciliation – the view that all human beings will ultimately be restored to a right relationship with God. I’ve been doing some rereading from the “fathers” of Christian Universalism and have been thinking about what I believe as a Christian Universalist with feet […]

The Theology of Popeye

Posted on December 30, 2020February 9, 2021by frank

Who would have guessed it? Theology abounds in Popeye! As a kid arriving home from church on a Sunday morning one of the first things I did was to grab hold of the “funny papers” and read faithfully every funny. “Popeye The Sailor” was one of those comics.

Humans Need Stories

Posted on October 10, 2020February 7, 2021by frank

The I-Thou I-Me Conflict & The Failure of Western Christianity

Posted on June 12, 2020February 9, 2021by frank
fractured

Drawing on the Celtic Christian Concept of the God-Image within The failure of Western Christianity is her lost of community in favor of the individual.

The Table

Posted on April 17, 2018February 9, 2021by frank
The Table

“Come I Before The Lord” We don”t come to the table to fight or to defend. We don”t come to prove or to conquer, To draw lines in the sand or to stir up trouble. We come to the Table Our hunger brings us there. We come needy. With fragility, With an admission of our […]
