REFLECTING THE GOSPEL IN CROATIA

Reposted from my website blog 1 Comment You haven't heard from me in a while because I have been in Croatia and it's not smart to announce to the cyber-world that you are not home. I've been dusting off my library skills to catalog for Evangelical Theological Seminary in Osijek. I have been here several times before, beginning in 1993 just after the war for independence from the former Yugoslavia. The library is in a beautiful new building whose glass sides inspired lots of photos I call this one "Theological education should reflect the cultural context." "Theological education should reflect history." The image is the 1902 synagogue that was bought and restored by the church in the 1970s. "Theological education should reflect the Gospel of Jesus Christ." I worked with these wonderful people: Deborah, Ana, Joske, and Tiana. The main library reading room is full of light. But the basement stacks were much more fun to photograph. Come back tomorrow for pictures of the synagogue you saw above reflected in the seminary wall.
