Vanhoozer nearly kills monkey at The Land of Unlikeness

Vanhoozer nearly kills monkey

Published

on May 30, 2007

For those of you that know me, you’ll remember that I spent three really formative and harrowing years under the tutelage of Kevin Vanhoozer in Deerfield, IL. Well, some of you may also know that during that time I helped KJV in a really small way by reading the first few chapter drafts of his Drama of Doctrine (I even got a thanks in the book for my small part). Anyway, I found this really delightful blog post on the DofD that I thought I’d share with you all. Enjoy

The bright orange of DofD sits uneasily with the comparatively dull orange of the paperback version of Barth’s Church Dogmatics 1.1. My guess is that KJV wanted to step up the intensity of the orange for our day and age.

I think that is an insightful contextual reading of the book cover, although it seems to presuppose a good deal of authorial intent. I’d be more interested in what ways the orange creates meaning for the readers. Is there meaning ON this text?

…and more importantly, what is the meaning for the monkey? Which is really the great question underlying all other questions. =)

The Anglican Scotist directs our attention to Optimus Prime’s piercing critique of the GAFCON document and its attack on the Anglican Covenant, found at the Rev. Canon Kendall Harmon’s excellent blog. OP makes the especially perceptive point that the Covenant is not in itself a “fix” for current problems, but rather an something like an prolegomena or architecture for how churches in the communion relate to one another. It’s subtle but extremely important re: our expectations.

ADDITIONALLY: a link offered by 3rd Mill. Catholic analyzing the GAFCON.

Head on over to haligweor, a blog I discovered thanks to 3rd Mill. Catholic, who i discovered thanks to Per Caritatem. I was especially delighted to read the quite funny post “Faux Catholic.” Those of you that are still not quite sure what being Anglo-Catholic entails, as is the case with most Anglo-Catholics I know, will definitely get a kick out of it. One of the coolest things about this strange blogging culture is learning that there are other people out there going through situations quite similar to your own. A rather virtual support group.
