Editorial Introduction
by Major Stephen Court
Welcome to the
sixty-seventh issue of the Journal of Aggressive Christianity.
As always, God provides and surprises. This June/July
2010 edition offers us a wonderful mix of edification and
instruction and revelation and inspiration and challenge.
From James
Pedlar we get BEING FAITHFUL WITH DISHONEST WEALTH.
James teaches important lessons from a difficult
parable.
From Major
JoAnn Shade we sit AT THE TABLE.
She tells us about competencies and training for
officers.
From Major Amy
Reardon we get a contrarian look at YOUTH CULTURE, one with
which, if you read armybarmy blog, you will know that we are
sympathetic.
From
Lieut-Colonel Richard Munn we are invited into immensely
practical CIRCLES OF INFLUENCE that could jolt your prayer
life (from the forthcoming ARMY ON ITS KNEES).
From Captain
Danielle Strickland we get a combination of two related but
too-often-divorced subjects in
JUST
HOLY.
From Cadet
James Thompson we get a head-shaking reintroduction to a
famous saint, in SAINT FRANCIS: THE WILD
SIDE
OF MISSION.
From Cadet
Matthew Kean we get the argument that the Gospel in a
postmodern context is SO EXCLUSIVE IT’S OFFENSIVE!
From
Lieut-Colonel Miriam Gluyas we get answers to
FIVE
QUESTIONS on officership in an excerpt from the forthcoming
book, MIGHTY WARRIORS: OFFICERSHIP AS VOCATIONAL EXTREMISM.
From Captain
Michael Ramsay we get the exhortation,
DON'T
BE A McCHICKEN!, another take on covenant by the author of a
forthcoming book on it.
From
Commissioner Wesley Harris we get THE BOOTHS, a newsy take on
some history you may not yet know.
When you finish
the issue, share it with your friends.
And then dig into the 66 previous issues, chock full of
orthodox edification and provocation, all for the glory of God
and the salvation of the world.
