Theology: The theology wiki Theopedia is continuing to grow and mature. It is a good, though not infallible, resource for questions of church history, Bible study and theology.

Video: National Geographic posts their top ten videos of 2005. While I did not watch them all, those I saw were simply amazing. It’s too bad that National Geographic can’t see God in nature!

Olympics They are over, thankfully. But before they wrapped up, Cindy Klassen, whom I wrote about late last week, won a fifth medal, a bronze in the 5000 meters long track speed skating. She now becomes the most-decorated Canadian athlete in Olympic history.

Theology Bonus: There is some interesting discussion happening at the Together for the Gospel blog. Mark Dever is asked Ligon Duncan about Presbyterian church membership and they are questioning whether Calvinists are better evangelists than Arminians.

Hey Tim,

I saw your posting of the Nat Geo video links. Thanks for the plug.

I’m a video editor for Nat Geo in DC and I edit a weekly show on PBS called Wild Chronicles. I edited one of the videos on that top ten (hornets from hell, which I actually cut down from a longer show). There are other links to videos I edited up there, the bison relocation story and the rhino move by elephant and bulldozer.

I’ve met a couple of believers here at Nat Geo, but we’re few and far between. It’s definitely a mission field.

Keep up the good work, I ready your blog daily.

Jamie

Hi Tim,

You said, “The theology wiki Theopedia is continuing to grow and mature. It is a good, though not infallible, resource. ” Of course it’s not infallible. But I do that kind of thing all the time … I put in a disclaimer to distance myself from things. Why do you think we do that? Cause we’re afraid that others in our “camp” won’t think we’re orthodox or fundamental enough? Not a big deal; I guess it’s one of those things that I’ve been noticing in blogs.
