A New Venture: A Biblical Theology Community

I just realized it's Monday and usually this is "blog day." I've been pretty occupied with a few things lately, so time had gotten away from me.
I'm going to keep this a bit short and sweet, but don't let that fool you: I am so excited about this.
A New Community: Centered on Biblical Theology, Growing Together
What if...there was a community that was built specifically around biblical theology?
Let me tell you about my vision:
- A community that functions similarly to Facebook, centered on social connections
- But without the distractions of FB, making it easier to do things like real book studies or live stream events
- Designed to cross-pollinate audiences of amazing content creators bringing solid Bible study to all
- With courses that boil the avalanche of information down to equip people to TEACH and SHARE
- But the courses are designed in cohort fashion
Places like Facebook actually can be amazing for connection. But broad social media is also a place of great distraction.

That is what I'm actively creating, right now, and it should be open and active in the next few weeks. But I'm going to need your help and participation, if you're game. I suspect there's a deep need and desire for all these things...and did I forget to say that the aim is application. Let's not leave study in the realm of mental information.

We won't want just another cookie-cutter methodology, we want it to work where you are, with how you like to do things.
Why 1 Enoch Is Not in the Canon of Scripture
So here's a common question from people who follow Dr. Michael Heiser's work, or really any of the current flurry of interest in 1 Enoch:
Why isn’t 1 Enoch in our Bibles?
I mean, after all...you've found out that it's quoted in the Bible and…
Stop Ruining Numbers: A Theological Lament
This is just a general rumination (and frankly, lament) because I was led to go on a bit of a research side-trail today due to an interesting question about the Babylonian base-60 number system and if the Bible has anything to do with that. (Q…
