Finished! - Missional Ephesians Paper

Published by Shane at 2:06 pm under Deepness, Mundanity, Spirit

Knocked off the conclusion to my paper last night. 16 pages of scholarly goodness.
The topic I finally decided on? Of passing interest to some people, it is entitled, “The Use of Ephesians by the Missional Movement.” The course I took was on the Book of Ephesians, so I had to do something on that.
To be honest, I don’t think it’s all that useful. I didn’t have a very broad selection of commentaries (the stupid Trinity Western Library is close at 4:30pm weekdays, so I couldn’t really get any research done there). Also, my source material on the Missional movement was all online blogs, with the exception of one of the course texts. It was good in one sense, in that online content like that is really the most current source material a person can access, but a lot of their use of Ephesians I found to be based upon seminars or books that have come out. The books in particular I would have loved to reference,because I know it is bad form to reference a reference (I managed to stay away from that for the most part), but it was not to be in the time frame I had.
I think I may have come across a bit harsh towards the missional conversation. (The rest of this post was cut off in a data loss by my host. Sorry.)
