My good friend, Robin Dugall, emailed me this photo earlier this week. I've been thinking about it ever since.

Did you notice who is giving this lecture?
Chuck Colson. Who would have thunk?

Chuck Colson at Q, right? I saw this on Scotts blog the other day and have been thinking about it a lot too.

Yes. indeed. I believe it is Chuck Colson. I'd be interested to see if it is actually a part of his presentation, or was from someone else's...
Anyway, I don't think I've see the idea of creation/restoration put as simply before.

Came over from Bro. Maynard. Love the graphic....Brilliant! We are in the middle of the story.
(But I really think it's Drew Carey speaking.)

Also here from Bro Maynard's. I like this. Any telling of the J/X message that doesn't include original unity, and the hope of grand reunity, is indeed only part of the story. I'm tending to see Gen 1/2 and Jn 17 as bookends, with a lot of activity in the middle all pointing back to a single ideal. Not transient unity, not "our unity" vs. "their unity," but the mysterious, universal, grand unity of all things Jesus more than hints at in Jn17 - what Colson is calling restoration.
