What specificall to do? Dow

  What are specific steps. I'm inclined toward liturgical reform first. Thus, lectern and pulpit (2 witnesses). Candles lit before and extinguished after (evening and morning) Etc. Second would be more homeschooling and Christian schools. (Beware: State aid is state control). This would get into history--Stark, Leithart, etc. Third would be parallel economies--Depression Scrip abounded in Iowa in the Depression, and Hy-Vee Perks, and Casey's Rewards could easily become 'money' You may not know but in Perry, Iowa in the 1950s was a store that ONLY sold things for Gold Bond stamps. Fourth, Matthew 25: 31-46. Thus the 5 acres your church has could feed many. Fifth...well, that's a start. I follow as wise one who said that we are in Jeremiah Time. My 'The Next Thousand Years A Prayer' is a plot of land. Eschatological Evangelism is jeremiads, and we must figure out a way to work 'for the good of the city'--prepping?

re: Holy Architecture

Holy Architecture Steve Jobs

 Holy Architecture: Steve Jobs

According to 'Innovators' Jobs spent much time designing the atrium for Pixar so as to maximize serendipitous personal encounters (unto creativity).
God spends much Bible on holy architecture. 7 chapter in Exodus on describing how to build the tabernacle, and 7 more in how they do it exactly that way, priests.
One could even say that the New Testament is instructions in how to build the people/house of God.

Thus, 'All Scripture is God's Breath ('breathed out by God') and is profitable...so that the man of God shall have all his furniture ('be thoroughly furnished').
Designers of worship spaces should take note. There are unknown knowns, even unknown unknowns (Rumsfeld).
Thus, old woodcuts whow a preacher on high in a crows nest, with a curved sounding board over his head, with a standing body of listeners below.
JBJ has written of a vision in which worshippers come in through 4 doors (white, red, black, green) and sit on cushions around a table.
Pews came in during the Reformation. (And read in Leithart's 'Solomon...' about the English sentence--when it came in.).
So, there's a verse about action (on the Sabbath?) that says something like 'if you know what you are doing, good--if you don't, bad'. Designers of worship spaces take note.

 Gurri's 'Revolt of the Public' applies to my condition. He writes that we're in the 'Fifth Stage' of information. So, confirmation bias. The question is what has caused my inability to walk well--or play golf (balance)? I'd hold that pneumonia plus Remdesivir, per protocol. Others opine 'covid'. Some say hospitals get a bonus for each. I do know thatin the years of my debility, I got more parts of my book--not Steiner Time necromancy, but that my mind kept working. So, I send it to you, though I'm engaged by the remark to Jobs invested uch time in the design of Pixar so as to promote serendipitous interaction unto creativity. Designers of worship space take note. God spends much Bible describing same.

The Next Thousand Years A Prayer
This is a work in progress. It’s a mess, but some gems may be mined from it. (1) The 49 books of total Bible saturation are based on James Jordan’s ‘Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament’ at www.biblicalhorizons.com. (5) The idea that the next thousand years will be ‘small enthusiastic groups’ is from Rosenstock-Huessy’s Dartmouth course ‘Universal History 1954’. www.erhfund.org.Audio and transcript at www.erhfund.org.
WHAT 12 SMALL ENTHUSIASTIC GROUPS OF THE NEXT THOUSAND YEARS ARE PROPOSED AT THIS TIME?
Jordan has said that we live in 'Jeremiah Time'. This book is part one--the 'plot of land' that said we'd be returning from Exile. I now will work 'for the good of the city'. These are enthusing times! See also Jordan’s ‘Crisis, Opportunity, and The Christian Future’. (3) Beatific Harmony came t the author as he worked through this. edencity@aol.com and Charles Howard Hartman on Facebook. The Jeremiads are ‘Eschatological Evangelism’. (4) There’s a ‘liturgy through the year, from CelebrationOfResurrectionAnnoMundi to CORAM. (3) We learn to sing each book.
It's good that I did not become one of the richest in the world (Bitcoin Pizza Day, 2009--10,000 bitcoin for a pizza) because I didn't get receipt for $10,000 donation. Would I have done it--perhaps. I played one golf tournament in which we went around 9 holes twice and took the best score on each hole, and one with large holes, and used that to shoot my age AMBIDEXTROUSLY.

#158 Greg

 #158, Romans 13:1, etc. would be benefited by 1—Chapter 5 of Gardner’s ‘Beyond Belief’ about the Revolutions of the West, and 2—The book footnoted in Leithart’s ‘The End of Protestantism’ which shows the centuries-long effort by advocates of the state against cities, church, and aristocrats.

Add to One Room School

 My brother did this with workbooks, before computers.

On 'grades' see many--training for factories
PS: The smartphone is a General Purpose Technology (see wikipedia0 and so of course this great too is banned.
 
Chuck
PPS:Bible, Liturgy, Hebrew.

One Room School

 Yes. Get Ready To Help People Locally.

Find 6, work with them.
The one-room schoolhouse (with computers) will come back.
In Iowa in the 1930s, HIGH SCHOOL girls were trained to teach in one-room schools.
Iowa had the highest literacy in the nation.
One-room schools every two mile--one teacher 1-8.
My mom walked 1 1/2 miles, her sister 1/2 mile, to each's respective school.
I attended Valley #3.
Any church can do this.
