Theology is done on the knees in prayer, in the church in worship, behind the desk at study. But, it is also done in community -- in coffee shops, at work, around the dinner table. Theology is written in scholarly texts, spiritual classics, liturgies. But it is also scribbled on napkins, envelopes, and random scraps of paper. Coffee shop, napkin thought theology is all you will find here -- hardly worthy of the name theology at all, more question than answer, often done in real time -- yet done for the glory of God. May His blessing be upon those who read and His mercy upon this sinner who writes.

Just Wondering: Lift Up Your Hands

Just wondering:  why is it that so many hands are lifted during praise songs and so few during the reading and preaching of the word or during the Eucharist when "Christ our God to earth descendeth, our full homage to command"?
