FCS Weekly Journal – Week Five: September 26-October 2, 2004
Just how quickly can I read and catch up on the reading from the
Sheldrake book that I just received on Saturday? That is the major
task for this week. I have more than a passing interest in history, so
knew this was going to be a challenging book. I have to confess that
it did take a while to really follow what he was talking about and
where he was going with his line of thought. I guess, I learned that I
had been approaching history along similar lines, so didn’t find
myself too shocked by where he was going with his approach. In
seminary we had studied Jaroslav Pelikan’s approach to the history of
doctrine which I was reminded of as I read. I think I will be very
interested in seeing more how he works out his examples. I was able to
read the required chapters and I think I understood most of it.
