In a recently published piece, Linda Taylor addresses a favorite hate of
mine, group learning. First, let's establish that a great many things we
learn can and should be done in a peer group setting. That is generally

latest release of eComStation,
2.0. This is the new name and face on the venerable OS/2. It’s all too
easy to find websites discussing the history of OS/2, articles that walk through the
installation process, and lists of drivers, software, and so forth.
Despite the ardent love for OS/2 one finds in the user groups, it
remains a fairly small niche operating system. This has little to do
with the technical merits or demerits of OS/2.
By Timothy R. Butler |Apr 16, 2008 at 10:22:30The problem that has faced the Evangelical world as it looks towards the Bible is that while we have a very high view of Scripture, by and large, we do not seem to have a very high view of the story it tells. When we look at common ways of reading everything from the beginning text of Genesis to the crucifixion of Christ, from the establishment of the Israelites in Canaan to the final chapters of Revelation, they are often pulled out of context as propositional statements or, worse yet, separate or overriding stories. In his book Far as the Curse is Found, Michael D. Williams lays out a more constructive, Biblically consistent interpretative method that avoids the follies that cause pop-Evangelical interpretative methods to fundamentally miss the wonderful story of the Bible.
