Mere Cognition

In my usual, "too gung-ho for my own good", on top of everything else I've added my church's Friday morning men's study to my list of events, along with Steven J. Lawson's Thursday morning study. The cup overfloweth.

We're going through Acts in the Friday study, today's examined 1:12-26, touching on qualifications and election of church officers. We even delved into the PCA Book of Church Order and touched on lots of implications of the process. It was a pretty edifying conversation and actually bolstered my conviction that the presbyterian form of church government has a lot of good qualities that act as guard rails for everything from the local church to the top of the organizational ladder. I'm still a little iffy on the idea of covenant paedobaptism without subsequent regenerate dunking baptism - but that's not necessarily a deal breaker.

May your weekend be blessed. I just brewed some Death Wish Coffee medium roast in a french press, and it looks like motor oil, just how I like it. We'll see if it lives up to its name. Hooray for the Kroger 50% off bargain shelf!

Once I get some other situations sorted out, I hope to be able to start acquiring coffee from sources I'd prefer to support, such as Reformed Roasters: Coffee that Chooses You and Life Over Coffee (once they get their store up selling their beans).
