Been reading a lot of & about the fathers this semester. Really regret that at seminary, I wasted too much money on contemporary books rather than buying primary sources. My advice is to buy critical editions of primary sources and only use library copies for secondary sources!

The Nicene-Constantinopletan Creed is not just a historical creed, but a living confession—essential to Christian formation, worship, hermeneutics, theology, and spirituality. Any opposition to it is either premodern heresy or modern nonsense.

Sad to learn Prof Paul A Cohen passed away. I’m so indebted to his works though I’ve never had the privilege to meet him. May he rest in peace!

Absolutely thrilled to find this book in my pigeonhole today, which was written by my great friend Janice Pibworth! Ada Habershon’s hymn “He will hold me fast” has been a great blessing to my life. I’m very sure that Janic/ book could be a brilliant Christmas gift idea!!

As people are fascinated by Tolkien, Lewis, and Rowling, I think Neil Gaiman is really important, especially for those who read theology. I really hope someone to work on Gaiman’s novels from a theological perspective. In particular, to study his American Gods and Good Omens.

“Many vices may [disguise] as virtues” (St Gregory, Book of Pastoral Rule, 2.9).

Self-promotion is really a repulsive vice in today’s academy, especially among evangelical scholars.

Enjoyed reading this fantastic book. Wish there is a sequel on East Asians in British history. Nevertheless, Fatima said it beautifully—pages 184–186—what I would offer as a proposal and call for church historians, i.e., to reimagine a metanarrative. Thank you, Fatima!

Bring the tender tale true of the Pelican;
Bathe me, Jesu Lord, in what Thy bosom ran
Blood whereof a single drop has power to win
All the world forgiveness of its world of sin.
