Hello, World

It's good to join a team with like-minded Reformed pastors, and I'm grateful to Andrew for the invitation to participate. My main concern in posting here will be the organic connection between doctrine and practice. One cannot have the one without the other. I intend to show that doctrine is practical, and good practice cannot help but be doctrinal. The gap between doctrine and practice is due mostly to the Enlightenment, not to anything biblical, and certainly not to anything Reformed. The Enlightenment, especially as Kant saw it, produced a separation of the mind and the heart, or between the spiritual and the physical. As a result, everything has become more and more fragmented in our societies. And one of the biggest and baddest separations has been the one between doctrine and practice.
