Teach not more?

Jesus is on the Throne

1/ Should we flee? Psalm 11:4

      The LORD is in His holy temple; 
      the LORD’s throne is in heaven; 
      His eyes see, 
      His eyelids test the children of man. 

2/ Gregory Schulz suspension

My friend, the Rev. Dr. Greg Schulz, was, on Friday, teaching Philosophy classes at Concordia University Wisconsin. On Saturday he was suspended from teaching, locked out of his email, etc.

CUW is looking for a new president, and Dr. Schulz was vocal about the dangers of woke-ism in the University leadership. Report from Steadfast here. Woke Dysphoria at Concordia by Dr Schulz here.

This whole thing smells.

I talked with Dr. Schulz yesterday, and he is in good spirits, and hopeful that this public conversation will bring some helpful things into the light for correction.

Here are a few things you can do, if you are so moved:

(1) Include your name on this petition.
(2) Attend the service of prayer and repentance at Peace Lutheran, Sussex this Saturday.

A Service of Prayer and Preaching for Confessional Faithfulness

3/ Master Metaphors in Philosophy

My first collaboration with Dr. Schulz was years ago when we put together this series of ten interviews on the master metaphors of philosophy.

1. Plato’s Cave

2. Aristotle’s Cross Examination of Nature (the Four Causes)

3. St. Augustine’s Stealing the Pears

4. Thomas Aquinas’ Phoenix

5. Descarte’s Evil Demon

6. Berkeley’s Table

7. Kant’s Categorical Imperative

8. Nietzsche’s Man Man

9. Wittgenstein’s Rule for When to Speak and When to Be Silent

10. Searle’s Chinese Room

4/ Conversations with Dr. Schulz

I made a playlist of the conversations I’ve had with Dr. Schulz this last year, mostly about the topic of suffering and lament. Your reactions to these conversations have been very kind. Thank you. If you haven’t seen them, here you go:

5/ The Three Blessings of Tribulation and Trouble: Martin Luther on Psalm 4:1

(1) Education, (2) Strength, and (3) Comfort.

But this is a threefold enlargement which God provides in tribulation: the first is that of education, for in tribulation one learns many things which he did not know before; many things he already knew in theory he grasps more firmly through experience. And he understands Holy Scripture better than he would without trials. For that reason it is called “the Lord’s discipline” (Prov. 3:11).
