Hi, this is my first posting to this group. I was referred by Dr. Curtis Freeman. I was at Duke Divinity for a week writing communion liturgies with a friend,...
... Welcome to the group, Phuc Luu. Good to have you on board. I had the pleasure of visiting Duke myself, last week, and meeting Curtis Freeman face to face...
Dear Phuc Luu May I add my welcome to you, and indicate that I concur entirely with what Nathan has already written both in analysing what you wrote and in his...

This is my second response since I did not see my first response posted up. But thank you for all the help with the reconciliation eucharist. I will type a...
It was good to read Phuc Luu's contributuion recently. I am taking sabbatical leave next year (Jan - Mar) and am interested in doing research, practical if...
... One book that would be very valuable reading on this topic is: Sent to Heal: A Handbook on Christian Healing by Harold Taylor publishing in 1993 by the...
Although now quite old, you might also try Clinical Theology by Frank Lake and any of the Paul Tournier books on psychological and spiritual aspects of health....
Thanks, Nathan for your suggestion. I'll follow it up. SInce I don't think I am at what you referred to as "the sillier extremes of Christian healing" and am...
Thanks for all the responses to my the eucharist. Nathan, I am glad you had a chance to meet Curtis in person. He is a great teacher and friend. I will be...
... I like it a lot, Phuc Luu. It feels a bit upside down from this side of the world, where spring is in the air, but since I was in the USA a fortnight ago,...
That is an excellent suggestion. It does need to be blessing more than exhortation. I have been mentoring a student from Truett seminary and have been...
... Hi again Perhaps I'll chime in and say that there are a number of Australians on this list, and that yes, we tend to operate in more "litrugical"...
Phuc Luu, I'm an American Baptist (ABCUSA) now serving in Michigan, but have served literally from Maine to California, in American Baptist Churches ranging ...

I like the lines of discussion because I have recently been caught between the two worlds. Our church, West End Baptist, in Houston, Texas, has just merged...
In this meeting, we usually "just jump in" so here goes. I'd suggest, first, 4 books as "must" reads for your staff: Robert Webber's WORSHIP IS A VERB, Revised...
Greetings friends, Some of you will remember that some months ago I was asked to write a chapter on Baptist Worship and it ecumenical implications for a book...
Dear Nathan, I think that you do very well in the limited space to describe the wide range of Baptist expression of worship. I have two immediate thoughts: (1)...
Nathan, The paper is a "good read" and, given its brevity, a fair summary, I believe. Though this might not be relevant for the paper, I've come to believe...
Now, typing with one hand (coffee mug in the other), and having read Paul's initial response, I'd add to his point 2 the contributions among American Baptists...
