Bad News For Authors (wanting to get money out of me)

The title of this post is invidious if it suggests that theology and spirituality are two separate disciplines. For theology is spirituality in articulate expression, while spirituality is theology on its knees—and, of course, on its feet too! When theology is “thin,” it is often because it is not steeped in prayer; and when spirituality is “lite,” it is usually because it is theologically vacuous.

Faith and Theology: Essential spiritual and devotional writings for theologians.

Some times I think I’ll actually get caught up on my “books to read” list. Then something like the above article comes along and I find a lot more books. Then common sense reminds me that since it took over 2000 years to write my book list, there’s a really good chance I won’t read everything in my lifetime.
