Scott’s Thoughts: Yay! Iron Man!

Yay! Iron Man!

>> Thursday, October 2, 2008

Our family watched Iron Man last night. It was great just to be able to hang out together as a family for the evening — life has seemed so very busy lately!

And what a great movie! My dad and I saw it when it came out in the theaters, but Margo and the kids had not seen it until last night. I remember telling them it was the "Best... Superhero... Movie... Ever...!" and now they know why.

Lots of fun!

Thanks for coming to the opening of the food bank today.

I think that's our movie plan for Friday night.

"Real theological thinking, which is thinking with the mind of Christ, is hard to find in the practice of ministry. Without solid theological reflection, future leaders will be little more than pseudo-psychologists, pseudo-sociologists, pseudo-social workers. They will think of themselves as enablers, facilitators, role models, father or mother figures, big brothers or big sisters, and so on, and thus join the countless men and women who make a living by trying to help their fellow human beings to cope with the stresses and strains of everyday living.

"But that has little to do with Christian leadership because the Christian leader thinks, speaks, and acts in the name of Jesus, who came to free humanity from the power of death and open the way to eternal life. To be such a leader it is essential to be able to discern from moment to moment how God acts in human history and how personal, communal, national, and international events that occur during our lives can make us more and more sensitive to the ways in which we are led to the cross and through the cross to the resurrection."

(Henri J. M. Nouwen, In the Name of Jesus: Reflections on Christian Leadership (New York: Crossroad, 1998) pp. 65-67
