We're two weeks into Prison Epistles -- I hope you're enjoying it so far. I've found your journal entries largely very thoughtful and thought-provoking, and I've commented on a few of them.
I hope you remember to maintain a dual focus on the Scriptures and on our culture. We need to grapple with what is going on in Scripture, always having our understanding transformed. And we need to constantly be re-interpreting culture in that light--not necessarily judging everything, but always trying to understand, sometimes affirming things we see, sometimes learning from culture how to be more faithful Jesus-followers, sometimes discerning where patterns of life reflect corruption of one sort or another. Just to say, keep reflecting on culture as you reflect on what you're discovering!
And remember, hit me with whatever questions you've got in any of the reading. Have a great weekend!
