Four months & some fun questions
Four months & some fun questions
1/3 of a year + polls to give me some feedback
Gentle reader,
(If you see a message that this post is too long for email, you should be able to click “view entire message” to view the entire post in your email app.)
Church Blogmatics at substack is a great big four months old, and I’m so glad you’ve chosen to join me here. I never take it lightly when you choose to spend time with my words.
Welcome, new readers! And to those readers who’ve been here awhile, please accept a great big thanks from me.
Church Blogmatics is now a community of more than 3000 subscribers from 49 states (come on, Wyoming!) and 69 countries. Substack gives us the opportunity to create a unique community with no trolls and no outside interests shaping the content. (Ahem, or, where I can write about whatever random thing comes to mind…)
Community features include comments on posts, the substack chat feature and the newer substack notes. Nothing makes me happy like theology talk and mutual encouragement, so do join in the conversation!
If you’ve considered a paid subscription to Church Blogmatics, stick with me to the end of the post for a special discount in honor of four months.

Today, I’d love some feedback from you; feel free to answer one, some, or all of the questions. Answers are not linked to your name (or, if they are, I don’t know how to access that feature and won’t do so anyway!):

If that’s a maybe, do check us out at Northern Seminary.
Again, I’m so glad that we’ve connected at Church Blogmatics. If the questions above prompt thoughts or ideas about what you’d like to see in this newsletter, please share in the comments, which are open today to everyone.
Grace & Peace,
BFJ

Why considering paying for a newsletter? Paid subscriptions let me (or other authors you believe in!) dedicate more time to this kind of writing. If you’re financially able, please consider an upgrade to paid.
In honor of four months on substack, here’s a special discount for one-fourth off of a paid subscription, good through the end of May:

It’s not too late to join us at Northern Seminary for June’s Theology and Mission Brady Lectures with the amazing Sarah Coakley, a personal hero and one of today’s most important theologians. I have the honor of serving on the discussion panel. Register for free to join in person or online.
I am an evangelical turned episcopal and am training to be a spiritual director. Just to throw some other categories your way. Linked one of your articles in my Substack this week. Thanks for writing
Maybe another option for the calvinist / arminian poll question? This is presented as if they are the only two options for the church. I am heartily and profoundly neither calvinist or arminian in my theological position but I appreciate the terms because they help present a general framework for understanding someone's positional bent.
