Our thinking about light and darkness seems to be quite different experientially than that of others.<br /><br />Reading through your comments, I also turned to think about how Scripture works in people's lives. We're people who live be narratives in the midst of competing narratives. I suppose I find it more as a kind of practical epistemology, or even a counter narrative to the words of Empire and Exile. As such, it would be linked to practice. Word becomes precious not so much for its intellectual prowess (your theology of glory), but for its connection or interaction with my life. A dim light, perhaps, but one that shines of hope.wmrharrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16252203329365058405noreply@blogger.com
