In Anglican History and Theology 2:

STM: Schism is our gift to the church.

Is it?

Spinks on religious statuary:

"One person's garden gnome is another person's dear friend."

You're Not Wrong...

A 3rd Year MDiv's response to watching an hour-long film of the Sarum Rite in Class:

MDiv: "This is why we need a Reformation."

Hey, Hova. JC's coming and wants a word...

Student 1: "Is that how it works? Holy Ghost lays the beats and the Jesus throws raps on top?"
2: "Yeah, but she's usually more into ambient."



Aaaaand we're back.

YDS! Preparing ministers for the church and world.

Chinese host: "When you go to the Mongolian grasslands, you drink hard alcohol.  It's just what you do."
Student: "Well, it's good we had practice last night, then."


Also: We're going on vacay for the summer.  Send in your submissions and we'll post 'em in August!

Tossed salad and scrambled eggs! Yum.

(During a discussion of various theology books)
Student 1: How about Eccentric, Kelsey?
Student 2: Which one?  David?  Julie?  Grammer?  Those are all the Kelseys I know.

Sunday Sunday Sunday!

Student 1: "Evangelical free church?  What does that mean?"
Student 2: "Hmm.  Conservative."
Student 1: "Exactly.  There's nothing 'free' about it."

Deadlines usually are a one-way street.

MDiv 1: "I got my grades!  I'm graduating!"
MDiv 2: "I'm taking [excellent and caring scholar's] class.  I may never know."

Good luck on finals!

It's your fault for being funny.

MDiv, regarding her frequent presence on this fine blog: "Is this the Truman Show?!"

Mike, can you just put some out by the candy bowl?

MDiv: "You poppin' the 'vil?"

regarding Advil and finals

Well?! How big is it?!

MAR: "So yeah, I was using Google Earth to measure distances across the Sea of Galilee."
