Candlemb

I am a pastor in the United Methodist Church and a perpetual graduate student, having attended Georgia State, Erskine Seminary and Candler School of Theology at Emory University. I am looking to get yet another degree because the person who dies with the most degrees, wins! (Just kidding.)

I am interested in the fields of:

• John Wesley (my hero!)
• Systematic Theology but particularly the
• Theology of Methodism
• The structure of the Great Prayer of Thanksgiving in particular:
  • The structures of Anaphoras of great age like:
    • The Anaphora of Hippolytus
    • The Anaphora of Addai and Mari
    • The Liturgy of St. James
• Evangelism as defined by Barth's missio dei
• Filmmaking
• Photography
• Publishing
• Music
• Science Fiction Shows:
  • Firefly
  • Star Trek of any flavor

My next degree with be something to do with Wesley (maybe at Duke? Emory?) I would love to do a thesis on the Emerging Church/Emergent Church as compared to the development of religious societies of the 1680's and Wesley's "Holy Club". Or perhaps I will go for a Masters of Sacred Music from Emory? Who knows?
