An Idea For A Regular Feature

How about a theological word of the day? This could be helpful in your theological reading.

Today the word is:
ecclesial (pronounced ekk-leez-ial)
It means of or pertaining to the church, or its organization, the institution of, teaching or doctrine of the Church.
This word is increasingly being used in place of "ecclesiastical" in theological writings. The root word is from the Koine (biblical) Greek word transliterated "ekklesia"(which means assembly/church). This is often pronounced ekk-la-see-a which is fine. But if you want to say it more accurately, say ekk-lay-see-a. Pronunciation is of little importance so don't become an elocution Pharisee.

Studying in My New Neighborhood

Today, I am working from my new location. I will be spending alot of time getting to know the folks of the southwest parts of Orlando. Please pray that our family will be Salt and Light. Please pray that our church can have an impact for Christ. Please consider joining us as we try to be a faithful local expression of Christ's church.

Tip of the cap to Mark. I just had my first Panera Bearclaw. Very nice almond cinnamon combo.

Hopefully, my mother-in-law will be able to come home from the hospital today. I need traffic to my blog so please consider signing up and "following" me.
