One to Imitate

Agape Leadership: Lessons in Spiritual Leadership from the Life of R.C. Chapman

It's only 80 pages, you can read it in about an hour if you push it, and it will change your life. I'm not kidding... not because of some amazing literary genius by the author(s), but God used R.C. Chapman to example the character and countenance of Jesus Christ like few men history has had the privilege of seeing. From his life and attitude we get a glimpse into what it looks like to truly run the race towards the cross, and to bend that outward in love to our neighbors. I believe Chapman would be upset if he could hear me I praising him like this, so I appropriately thank Christ for the debt He paid so that we could live like Him; R.C. Chapman took advantage of that gift.

Table of Contents
1. Agape Leadership
2. Love for God's Word
3. Spirit-controlled Character
4. Being Patient and Gentle
5. Maintaining Unity
6. Discipling and Reconciling
7. Forgiving and Blessing Others
8. Hospitality
9. Giving to the Needy
10. Working Together in Love
11. Vision and Evangelism
12. Self-discipline
13. Prayer and Worship

"There are many who preach Christ, but not many who live Christ. My great aim will be to live
Christ." ~ Chapman

Couldn't Pass This Up...

During my daily cruise through BBCNews.com I ran across this in the Middle East section...




That's a Hamas-afiliated militant reading from his pocket-copy of...yes...the Qu'ran.

While those calling the shots in Washington and Baghdad inevitably see this as a war over power, oil, pride, and a myriad of other marginal bickerings; to those willing to give their life for what they believe, this is about anything but politics. Unfortunately for all those who have been tragically decieved, our God IS great! While there is no need to fret over the current situation in the Middle East, let's do pray for those that God will use to bring some to repent in this season!

"For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. For if the word spoken through angels proved unalterable, and every transgression and disobedience recieved a just penalty, how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?" (Hebrews 2:1-3).

Dualism Revisited

Everyone knows the Chinese are evil, nasty, people. At least that's the general consensus, whether we're willing to admit it or not. While I too fall victim to blindly criticizing most policy I hear on the news or in class about China, an interesting controversy broke out today with my professor regarding the nature of sex and gender roles in the world's largest nation. While the "progressives" here in the United States continue to fight daily for even more liberal definitions of gender and sexuality, it's interesting to see how the great "evil" in the East feels about the same issues. I took the following from an article by sociologist Harriet Evans discussed in my class on Society and Politics of China. It explains how the dynamic Chinese culture views these topics today.

"Views about the sexual component of marriage as set out in dominant discourses of gender and sexuality since 1949 have consistently been premised on two core principles. Whether offered in official publications, journals, or advice booklets to newlyweds, explanations of the sexual response and responsibilities of the married couple have first of all assumed that legally recognized monogamous marriage is the only legitimate framework for sexual relations. Advice about what are considered appropriate sexual attributes, needs, and responses in women (or men) is framed by the assumption that a [person’s] relationship is with their [spouse], their exclusive and lifelong sexual partner. Legitimate sexual conduct continues to be defined with reference to the legally recognized heterosexual relationship” (Evans, 342).

And we think the Chinese are backwards? Interesting.
