Theological Worldview

I've been giving some thought to how we, in the general sense, "debate" with each other, and how labels effect the way in which we interact with each other. More on this maybe tomorrow. But here is my first label:

I took a test, and apparently I am a Methodist. Good to know I'm in the right place. (although, apparently, other religions run a close second, third, etc). It's good to know that I am not easily understood. (What?) So many of the questions on the quiz were black or white / pick and choose / one side is right and the other is wrong. As my husband says, I live in a gray area. I am also not completely sure what "neo orthodox" means, and could it actually be the opposite of classical liberal? To be perfectly honest, I had to go look up a few of the questions to understand them before I could answer them.

On another note, I've been reading a blog called Cerulean Sanctum. I've only read two of his posts, but so far I've found them interesting. He is doing a series "21 Steps to a 21st Century Church." I read part two today. As part of a committee I serve with at our church, I've been giving some thought to church growth, and found Dan's list of 21 steps to be thought-provoking. I'm not sure if I agree with all of them, but I do with some of them. The name of his blog in the first sentence of this paragraph is a link to his blog.

Tomorrow -- are you an idealogue or a contextualizer? Luckily, no quiz will be given.
