Like A Bell: Building a tower

Building a tower

Here is my son Micah, proud of the tower he has built. Thankfully it was not a tower to reach into the heavens. Micah does not want to be like God. Though he is proud at times, he is glad the Lord Jesus loves him.

Blog Title

About the title, “Like A Bell.” In Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s amazing novel Crime and Punishment, Sonia reads the story of Lazarus to Raskolnikov. As she came nearer and nearer to the miracle of the resurrection “her voice rang out like a bell; triumph and joy gave it power.” The power of Jesus and the blessing of his resurrection is this world’s hope. Jesus’ own resurrection is our triumph and joy. We are raised together with him. Because Jesus came and now lives again we can live and talk theology. Our lives and voices can be, should be, and hopefully will grow to be like the hope-filled sound of a bell. May what is written on this blog help bring the joy of Father, Son, and Spirit to the discussion of theology.
