The Seven Summits Challenge

This arrived in today's mail. I'm eager to read it. 

It's the story of two middle-aged men who think they can climb the highest peaks on all seven continents. Once again, ladies and gentlemen, life offers many rich and varied opportunities for adventure, and you can still be productive and active well into your 80s and beyond. This is literally true. The challenge is to master the changes that life brings and profit from them. 

P.S. Before you ask: No, I'm not planning on trying to climb Everest. I may be dumb, but I'm not stupid. On the other hand, a trek to Everest Base Camp .... 

Three Parameters for Bible Teachers

Three parameters have directed my teaching of the word of God for the past 46 years. Teaching should be:

• Scriptural
• Understandable
• Practical

I am not happy with myself when I stray from these three parameters or when one of them becomes more important than the others. I pray that all who teach God's word would ask God to enable them to be people who can take his word and make it both understandable and practical. 

Lessons from Philippians

Paul's letter to the Philippians has always been one of my favorite books in the New Testament. Go here to read some lasting takeaways from this remarkable epistle. 

The Key to Successfully Growing Older

The key to successfully growing older? Safely negotiating the seasons of life. This was me three weeks ago. 

And this was me today. 

When I left the house this morning it was 32 degrees. Yep, we've gone from summer to fall. 

l am now in the fall of my life, the second half, the fourth quarter. The transition between the seasons of life is not accomplished in a matter of days or weeks. It's more likely to take years. Men today are not have-beens just because they have been retired from their job or because they have fulfilled their traditional role of worker. Life is one rich and varied season after the other. And the beauty one finds in each season! The trees I witnessed today were a kaleidoscope of color. 

This happens only in the fall. It's a reminder that the changeover from summer to autumn is an exhilarating one. You can even plan for and anticipate it. Then, by welcoming it, you launch a preemptive strike against sameness and sourness, against retreating into the shell of an identity that once defined you. 

You're just entering a new season, that's all, going through stages beyond anything you've experienced before. You find new passions and pursue them. You move from competing to connecting. You mellow out. No sweating the small stuff any more! You walk through every door of opportunity that presents itself. Your don't "retire." You redirect. And all the while, you absorb the blows of fate as you feel a greater hunger than ever for the presence of God in your life. The pain of loss, the alienation, the disconnection you may feel moves you to a higher Power to elevate his sense of purpose in your life. Each soul has a destiny. That includes yours. Our task as those who are walking through the fall season of life is to "grow down" into God. Then you are ready to find the passion that is yours alone. Some widowers even find a new life partner, for it is never too late to find love again. 

"Every man desires to live long," wrote Jonathan Swift, "but no man would be old." Better still, the Bible says, "So teach us to number our days, that we apply our heart to wisdom" (Psalm 90:12). "I don't feel old," we say. And we are right. We are not old, just older. We're simply moving, as men did for eons, through the seasons of our lives. 

May we enjoy the beauty of the fall, even as we anticipate the arrival of winter. 

If Something in Language Can Be Shortened...

It usually will be. Take this German sentence:

"Ich weiss, dass du mitkommen willst."

In spoken German you might hear:

"Ich weiss du willst mitkommen."

Or how about:

"Ich habe es."

People often just say:

"Ich hab's." 

Basically, if it can be shortened, it will be. A native Spanish speaker in my Greek class used this as an example:

"Cómo estamo?" 

The "s" in "estamos" is simply dropped. Similarly, in Greek a "sibilant" (the "s" sound) is often dropped to make pronunciation easier. Likewise in English. Ease of pronunciation seems to be the key. This is how words like "gotta" are formed. Thus "I have got to go to the store" becomes "I gotta go to the store." In Hawaiian Creole we say "My sista skini" instead of "My sister is skinny." We don't use "are" or "is" in sentences. "I neva do 'em" is used in place of "I never did it" for obvious reasons -- fewer hard consonants! This simply shows that Hawaiian Creole has its own grammar and lexicon. 

Not sure why I'm tellin ya this. I hafta to say I find languages most interesting! 

"Don't Die with Your Music Still in You"

Last night in Greek class we translated a verse from the New Testament that had a double negative. In English, we normally have to make this a single negative but other languages can actually reproduce the double negative, as the Korean and Spanish speakers in our class reminded us. Well, here's a double negative I love:

"What is the work you can't not do?" 

A double negative, yes, but still very inspiring. As I mentioned to a student the other day, I have been a teacher for 46 years and yet I have never "worked" a day in my life. I absolutely LOVE what I do. The best way to be motivated to do the things you love is to surround yourself with passionate people. Let's say I want to become an athlete. I personally have gotten a taste for what it feels like to be the least athletic person in the room. But this only serves to put me in a position of humility where I'm willing to learn and grow. And more often than not, the other athletes are eager to help me do that. 

Author Wayne Dyer puts is this way: "Don't die with your music still in you." Success in life isn't measured by the number of days we spend on the planet but by how we measure every day. Am I living up to my God-given gifting and potential? To let that happen you might have to learn to step out of your routine (rut), stop, and open your mind to the intuition in your heart whispering, "What do you love to do?" Decide to become an expert on you. Only those who are experts about themselves can truly find the life they want and live it passionately. My life is only mine, and only I can change it. Even as a 70-year old, I wonder why I set limits on my future. My wife died at a fairly young age yet she probably lived a more fulfilling and intense life than most people who live past 80. If you're a forklift operator and you love, love, love your job, don't change a thing. Go to work every day filled with joy and gratitude. If you do, you'll make yourself indispensable in your job. 

We have to dare to start doing the "right" thing with our lives and not simply the "good" thing. Of course, sometimes we do what we have to do and maybe not love doing so much. Before I went to Basel in 1980, I worked three jobs, two of which I really really disliked. I loved teaching Greek at Biola. But I couldn't stand delivering tax returns to downtown Los Angeles as well as working two 12-hour shifts every weekend at the local vitamin pill factory. But those jobs got me to Switzerland and allowed me to pursue my passion of teaching. So many students I meet don't have any purpose or passion. They need to find their passion again. They need to ask themselves, "What is the work I can't not do?" I know, easier said than done. But who cares? 

So go out there and explore everything that remotely interests you. Please! 

Matthew and Luke Before Mark

For those who say that Mark is our earliest Gospel, what do you do with Clement's assertion that those Gospels containing genealogies (i.e., Matthew and Luke) came first? 

Dustin Hopkins Is a True Winner in the Game of Life

Man, whatcha think about that Dustin Hopkins? Ain't shy about his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ!

He got up and kept trying, kick after kick after kick. When I think of that, I think of such old-fashioned terms as guts, fortitude, and strength of character. And then to give all the glory to God. I'm sure some fans think the man sounds a little sappy. But it's really not a bad way to live your life. 

Thank you, brother. 

Jesus, the Gate

My Bible time this morning was in John 10, where Jesus calls himself the Door. 

Well, I prefer the rendering Gate. Sheepfolds don't have doors; they have gates. Here's the "gate" to our goat pasture. 

A gate is one of several essentials to maintaining a flock of sheep or goats. These are:

1. Food.

2. Water.

3. Shelter.

4. Fencing.

5. Companions.

6. Guardians (a llama or a donkey and a dog or two is a good idea).

When we bought our farm in Virginia we began raising sheep. That was a very interesting experience. Sheep are very hard to detect illness in and treat effectively. We discovered that the hard way. We soon gave up on sheep and instead increased our goat herd to about 30 head. Sheep are almost always more skittish than goats. Plus, sheep aren't naturally very sociable with people as they don't like to be handled much. In addition, with both sheep and goats you can't only rely on dewormers to control parasites. To be successful, a dewormer is a tool to be used along with pasture management and genetic management (i.e., herd culling). I think the secret is rotational grazing and having the correct breed in your herd. Additionally, having a large variety of plants for the flock to graze on is optimal, since many of these plants produce some natural deworming properties. 

All this to say, taking care of farm animals can be challenging, but it is one of the greatest blessings of life. Jesus himself is a Good Shepherd! This has to be one of the most beautiful metaphors he used to describe himself. Ask anyone who has ever attempted to raise sheep or goats and they will tell you: personal care and attention is given to each and every animal. We even name our individual animals. Often you can identify some recognizable trait of the animal. How amazing! 

Jesus is not only the Good Shepherd; he is the only Gate for the sheep. Don't let anyone point you elsewhere. Jesus is the only Gate through which we can gain access to eternal and abundant life. You can take that to the bank. 

Why I Lift

Just back from the gym. I am so happy and grateful that God gives me the opportunity to work out regularly. My goal is to get and remain fit and healthy. It's part of my philosophy of life. Lifting is primarily a mental game. I get mental clarity every time I perform a set. The gym is a place I go to clear my head and emotions. A gym session is always amazing. There's no greater reward than to see your progress. 

Building lean muscle will also speed up your metabolism and your body will burn more calories at rest. Lifting is a huge challenge to me because of the level of mindfulness it requires. When I'm lifting I'm not thinking about anything else except the muscles I'm using to lift the weight. 

At 70, I need to stay as healthy and as mobile as possible regardless of my chronological age. More muscle improves your immune system. It strengthens bones and helps prevent injuries. It's odd, but if I miss a session of weight training I start feeling weird. Like something in my life is missing. I think I'm becoming a lifting fanatic -- but what's new? I've been fanatical about Bible reading, teaching, and missions all of my adult life. I just have to remember that Rome wasn't built in a day. Strive for consistency and believe me, you will go far. The best part is, anyone can do it. Everyone is in control of their own fitness. I don't lift heavy (I can't at my age) but enough. I don't worship weight training. But I do enjoy it. I started lifting primarily for strength as a mountaineer. But I also do it for stress management, health, and -- let's not kid ourselves -- the aesthetics. Doing hard work demands and builds discipline. Every workout requires fortitude, perseverance, grit, goal-orientation, pain tolerance, and a whole host of challenges both mentally and physically. Workouts are hard but I never feel bad at the end of one. Tired, yes. Humbled, most certainly. But never bad.

Students: there are NO SHORTCUTS in life to becoming a strong, capable, and resilient human being. I would like to shout this from the rooftops! 

Elementary, Watson!

Had the van towed to South Hill today. No loaner car available so I rented a car to get to school for a 12:00 appointment. Got here just in time! Now it's lunch with a student and then class tonight. I enjoy keeping things simple. It's like Sherlock Holmes explaining murder mysteries to all his Dr. Watsons. Elementary, and I love it that way! 

Serendipity

It was amazing. On my drive to Richmond today, my van's engine gave out near a bump in the road called Chula. I've had absolutely zero issues with my 2017 Odyssey until today. So with a dead engine, all I could do was call Triple A for a tow back home, since the Honda dealership is closed today. 

The tow guy had my AAA plan on his phone, and when I asked him how many miles my plan covered without me paying extra, he said, "85." At this point I opened Google Maps to see how far we were from the farm. It was exactly 85 miles. I was understandably startled, as you would be, too, if God suddenly popped up unexpectedly. C. S. Lewis once called these "serendipities." Of course, our God is serendipitous to the max. Such simple things are the very things that matter to him. In fact, such little things matter to most people -- things like a warm smile from a stranger, or a squeeze of the hand, or an encouraging word, or a careful compliment, or a bouquet of flowers to say "Just because," or even a tip to a tow truck driver. Serendipity is allowing Christ to work through you to touch lives and show his compassion in very ordinary -- i.e., amazing -- ways. 

Though the word "serendipity" may be dated, its meaning never will be. 

Greek Loves Participles!

Good Sunday morning! I was up and at 'em before 6:00 this morning. I couldn't wait to get started on my day. First stop? Bojangles for coffee, Bible reading, and preparing for tomorrow night's class. The topic this time around is the Greek participle -- and my, oh my, does Greek love participles. 

There are 7,941 verses in the Greek New Testament, and 4,277 of them contain participles. Here are the participles found just in Hebrews. 

Incredible. You can't even make it through the first chapter of this epistle without a solid understanding of how the Greek participle functions. 

Time permitting, I hope to walk the class through the famous "warning passage" of Heb. 6:4-6, where the transition from present tense participles to aorist tense participles is crucial for our understanding of this text. 

Now I'm off to Richmond to (hopefully) record one of America's great church organs. It's all a part of the book I'm writing on the church/kingdom. One chapter will deal with church music and its various expressions in Christendom, from high church liturgical churches to churches that do not permit musical instruments of any kind in their services and everything in between, including Country Gospel. I also plan to get into the Hillsong controversy. So much to do! 

Have a wonderful Lord's Day.  

Just Sayin'

Saying you want to learn Greek but don't want to study is like saying you want 6-pack abs without exercising. 

Everything Has a Cost

Today I treated myself to a cut of filet mignon at the Outback in Danville. But it wasn't free. I had to EARN it. I had to earn it by finishing a half marathon. 

I started out at the back of the pack because I don't like to slow up faster runners. I ended up coming in 47th out of 58 participants. 

At mile 8, I began to tire. 

No, Dave, no! That delicious piece of meat is waiting for you! Keep on going! By mile 12 it was a slugfest. All I had to do was run was 1.1 more miles and I could sink my teeth into that juicy cut of cow. My salivary glands kept me going.

Then it happened. The race was over. It was but a short drive to the restaurant. My server plunked down right in front of my starving eyes this perfectly cooked piece of meat. 

I finished my meal in less than 10 minutes, eating rather faster than a respected professor of New Testament is expected. Never had beef tasted better.

Now I am safely ensconced at home and about to take a long nap to let my stomach digest my food before my next gastronomic indulgence tonight. Such is my life these days. By the way, my mantra for training nowadays is, "everything has a cost."

Even a filet mignon. 

Race Goals

My goals for tomorrow's half marathon:

1) Use the race to build fitness and strength.

2) Stay injury-free.

3) Stick to disciplined pacing.

4) Let go of my time goal.

5) Have fun.

Auditing Our Days

If we audit our day and discover that we are doing a lot less than we thought we were doing, it might be because we are too comfortable in our comfort zone. Often we don't realize that we are dragging our feet or applying too much pressure on the brakes. Learn to manage your day efficiently. A lot of people think they are doing real work when they are actually wasting their time. 

Our Crazy Conformity Culture

Grateful that Matt and Candace and Ben are standing up to our crazy conformity culture and fighting for our children and grandchildren. If only educators taught critical thinking, vulnerable people would be less likely to fall for all this insanity. 

I'll Miss This

Mowing, that is. 

I look forward to this "chore" every spring. 

But now that fall has arrived, all that is about to change. 

Next week we'll have our first frost of the year. 

Then it will be time to put away the mower for the winter. 

Yes, I'll miss this. 

Textual Criticism: A Demanding But Not Impossible Field

After my workout at the gym this morning I returned to my farm office to work on my chapter for the post-conference book on textual criticism. 

There is nothing I love more than writing for a general audience and taking the deeper things of God and attempting to make them plain for everyday readers. The great A. T. Robertson once called the Greek New Testament "the Torchbearer of Light and Progress for the world." If this is true (and it is), then any light we can shed on the text of the New Testament ought to help us gain light from it. Textual criticism is an intricate and demanding field of study, but it is not an impossible field, even for beginners. The Bible was given to reveal truth, not obscure it. God surely intends that we understand it. Hence, understanding the Bible is vital because our doctrines of God, man, salvation, and future things (to name but four) rest on a correct hermeneutic. This is the method expounded in my essay. I hope to finish it this weekend, Lord willing.

Thanks for reading,

Dave

Is Your Weight Training on Track?

The single most important question to ask yourself if your weight training plan is on the right track:

 "Am I getting any stronger over time?" 

This is really what it all boils down to. If your gym performance is consistently increasing, then you know that your plan is working. Since muscle growth happens so slowly, I take pictures weekly in order to track my progress. 

I've taken some pretty cringeworthy photos for sure. I'm certainly not where I want to be, so doing what I've already done won't get me there (i.e., back to the Alps). Improvements can take several forms, but for most beginning lifters like me, gradually adding more weight to your exercises is where the focus should be. It's a long struggle for a large-boned ectomorph like me, but I will keep fighting. It will take dedication, hard work, eating the right amount of macros, lifting smart, and getting enough sleep to improve the process. Fitness also depends on age and genetics, which, of course, I have no control over. However, having average genetics is not a death sentence. Don't worry too much about your genetics. Lifting weights to the best of your ability is an ongoing process, and that's the fun of it for me. I am competing against myself. And to all you fellas with great genetics or who started weight training at a younger age, good for you! 

Looking Forward to Another Half

Rainy mornings are for being lazy and such, but I never really do that. I went for a run first thing -- a mere 4 miles, a mile of which was running sprint intervals at the track. 

I am not an efficient sprinter, however, so I spent most of my run doing my normal jog. Now let's suppose there's a half marathon coming up not an hour away from your farm and, in fact, you just ran this trail a week or so ago. Well it's true. Come to find out today that the Danville Half Marathon will be run this Saturday. 

I am still scratching my head about why I didn't know about this race before today, but I was able to sign up for it at the last minute, and so half marathon #39 is now on the calendar. As you know, I love the idea of running for charities, and the proceeds from this year's event will go to the Children's Miracle Network which, as far as I can tell, supports over 170 children's hospitals. That's pretty amazing. In the meantime, I'm focused on figuring out my race schedule for next year. I don't know yet what it will include. A 10K here, a marathon there, possibly even another ultra. I will definitely add in some triathlons, though I'm very much on the fence about whether I will do the Alan Stone Memorial Run-Swim-Run again at Virginia Beach. That was my first ever ocean swim and it was pretty brutal since we ended up swimming against the current. Many people know I grew up in Hawaii as a swimmer and surfer, but I actually do very little open water swimming nowadays. If I do decide to do this race again, I will have to train harder for it this time. The rest of today I plan to write, so I better sign off for now. 

Here's to getting and staying fit,

Dave

Chills Down My Spine

My organist son sent me this amazing video. 

It's a splendid arrangement of an iconic melody. This instantly reminded me of all the organ concerts Becky and I attended in Basel. But this one is simply one of the best organ pieces I've ever heard. 

What follows is only my opinion, so stop typing. What strikes me is the way in which this music simply lifts up Christ. It's a turning toward the Center, an act of solidarity with all God's people of all time, a repudiation of the man-centered worship that far too many Christians today think is true worship, a Christological focus and one that appeals to the aesthetic senses. In music like this I find a dignity and awe that feeds my spirit and leaves me with a renewed reverence for the things of God. With such music I can worship God with all my heart, soul, and mind, whereas contemporary "worship" music leaves me empty. I do not find God easily in a service centered around a performer. I am distracted by innovations. I prefer music that is God-centered rather than man-centered, music that has a sense of mystery and holiness. Not all Christian music is worship music. Much of the music I hear today is unoriginal and boring. But when I listened to this video my son sent me, I began weeping when the piece ended and the sound of the organ reverberated throughout the cathedral. It's nice to see an organist who understands he is not only playing the organ but the entire building. His timing as the sound decays across the sanctuary is impeccable. He plays the music as it asks, without any personal ego or flashiness. Amazing. Such God-focused music should be the pinnacle of humanity. 

As a musician myself, I can say that this performance is the result of a lifetime of work dedicated to music. Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!  

Going Leaf Peeping?

After my morning workout today, I drove to Farmville to get in an easy 10 mile bike ride on the High Bridge Trail. 

The day was perfect for cycling. 

I noticed that the leaves had already started to change color. 

From what I've read, the fall foliage this year should be amazing, due partly to the 5 inches of rain we got recently. Plus, the nights being so cool has really jump-started the trees. Clear sunny days + cool nights = vibrant colors. The lower down you are, the later the colors peak. A friend of mine who lives in Wilkesboro, NC, sent me this foliage chart. 

I'm looking forward to climb Hanging Rock in a couple of weeks to see the foliage as well as get in a hike. 

I love Fall! 

Steady and Strong

Scripture says that we are "God's masterpiece" (Eph. 2:10). Each of us is a unique work of the Lord. But the way he is at work cutting and grinding and buffing and polishing me is different from the way he is doing that for you. In both cases, he works slowly and patiently, usually working delicately with small, precise strokes rather than a sledgehammer. So we must be patient. This morning's without at the gym lasted for only 1 hour. 

I do this only 3 times a week, for a weekly total of 3 hours. 

That's only 3 hours out of 168 hours in a week. 

Can anything lasting be accomplished by such a small investment? But think about this: Between now and my hoped-for trip to the Alps next August, there are 9 months. That's a total of 108 workouts in the gym, not counting all the cardio I do the other days of the week. I can't expect to arrive at my goal overnight. All that cutting and shaping that God is doing takes time. Becoming an instant athlete makes about as much sense as becoming an instant heart surgeon. That's why Paul so often speaks about our roots as believers growing down into Christ. It's like planting a crop. Corn doesn't sprout up overnight. It takes work, dedication, sacrifice, self-discipline, and especially time. I don't often get weary in my workouts, but when I do it's usually because I've become impatient. Then I remember how James closes his letter:

You see farmers do this all the time, waiting for their valuable crops to mature, patiently letting the rain do its slow but sure work. Be patient like that. Stay steady and strong (James 5:7-8). 

Don't give up. Don't give in. The "fruit" of patience is well worth the wait. 

Missions in Reverse

As I was heading to class last night, these two young people came up to me and introduced themselves. They work among Chinese students who are studying in the U.S. 

The ministry with which they are associated is called Ambassadors for Christ, and their vision is "reaching Chinese intellectuals for Christ in this generation." For more, see their website. I could not have been more delighted to have met them. Knowing of my 13 trips to China, they traveled to campus specifically to meet me, and it was a kind providence that allowed that to happen almost "accidentally" as it were. I gave them a copy of my beginning Greek grammar in Mandarin as well as a copy of Seven Marks of a New Testament Church in the same tongue. 

One of the most comforting truths that have been revealed to us in God's word is that nothing happens to us that God does not will or permit. I clearly saw the hand of Providence at work last night in arranging this meeting between this couple and me. I will pray for their work among the sizable Chinese expat community here in North America. This is "missions in reverse," and it is beautiful to behold. Thanks be to God. 

P.S. I loved this from their website:

"God may not call you to foreign missions, but he has called you to a lifestyle of missions. God may not call you to be a minister, but he has called you to share the gospel. The place we are is our mission field." 

Amen. As one of my colleagues once said, "Life is a mission trip. Take it." 

Sin Is the Problem

A notable trend today in the church is to embrace certain causes that are "newer" and "better." Often this means adapting moral theology to Marxist insights. This desire to be respected by the world will always backfire and lead to conclusions that are detached from the foundation of the faith (the Scriptures) and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It fails to fully take into account the depth of the fall. Efforts at social justice can't succeed unless the underlying problem of sin is dealt with.  

Ezer As "Beneficial Adversary"?

Just back from my Tuesday morning run. 

During my run I listened to this YouTube featuring Jordan Peterson and Piers Morgan, two of my favorite intellectuals. 

The topic was something like learning how to be disagreeable and even confrontational at times and the need to have disagreeable people around you because they tell you, not what you want to hear, but what you need to hear by not pulling any punches. Jordan Peterson has profoundly shaped the way thousands if not millions of people see the world and the political landscape in particular. I am grateful for him and for this interview. I just wish he hadn't used some very imaginative Hebrew exegesis to tell his audience that "beneficial adversary" is "the word God uses to describe Eve in the Garden of Eden." This is linguistically untenable (no Hebrew lexicon of which I am aware translates ezer as "beneficial adversary"), and, while Jordan Peterson, who is not a biblical scholar, can be excused for not knowing any better and assigning an inappropriate translation to ezer, what about those pastors who week in and week out engage in such, let's say, careless exegesis in their pulpits? The real danger is that if we hear enough of these fallacies, then we are no longer able to recognize the truth at all. One of the things I often to say my students is that every decision in life is ultimately an exegetical decision. Thus, to Peterson's point, the idea that a wife is supposed to help/support her husband when he is in line with God's word and go against him when he is not, while possibly true on a psychological or theological level, simply cannot be supported linguistically. 

Anyway, please watch the interview/discussion if you can. These types of respectful conversations are all too rare nowadays. 

The BEST Abs Workout Ever (GUARANTEED!!!!!)

Perform 3 sets of plate pushaways, fork putdowns, and fridge door closes. Repeat daily. 

Pardon the sensationalistic blog title, but I'm trying to mimic YouTube. Most of your typical ab routines are a waste of time. You can't spot reduce body fat. Period. Doing chest exercises won't burn fat off your pecs, and doing ab exercises won't burn fat from your stomach. Belly fat loss is the result of a caloric deficit over time that burns fat from your entire body, eventually catching up with your stomach. No amount of ab training on its own is going to get you a six pack. You just need to work your abs as you would any any other body part. For me that means 1) planks and 2) hanging leg raises done twice a week at the gym. 

But getting down to a sufficiently low body fat is mainly an issue of diet combined with building up the abs. 

Train hard but train smart!
