Warning: Theology ahead!

On Wednesday and Thursday I'll be heading down to the annual Moore College School of Theology. The topic this year is "True Feelings: emotions in Christian life and ministry".  Should be good.

I'll be live-blogging most sessions, I imagine, and posting an 'index' to all my posts at the end for your easy reference.

Wednesday is:

  • A sermon on the affections of Christ - Richard Gibson
  • What is at stake: a cultural overview of the emotions - Andrew Cameron
  • The Puritans, Theological Anthropology and Emotions - Keith Condie
  • Am I a man? The passions of God - Gerald Bray (really looking forward to this one)
  • Whose tears? Jesus and his emotional life - Richard Gibson
  • "He rejoiced in the Spirit" The Spirit's Perfecting work on the emotions - David Hohne
  • Theological Anthropology and the emotions - Michael Jensen
Thursday is:
  • From sad and mad to glad: The Pilgrim's Passions - Rhys Bezzant
  • Together, with Feeling: corporate worship and the emotions - David Peterson
  • Preaching, the Gospel and emotions - Peter Bolt
  • Music, singing and the emotions - Rob Smith
Phew!  That's going to be intense.  Definitely going to need a trip to The Local Taphouse in there.
