Welcome to my blog On the Other Side Of Midnight. This session consists of a bible study on “Sexuality and The Bible.”
But first, a necessary, albeit brief, introduction:
“I AM SHE” Rev. Dorinda G. Henry
- Masters of Theological Studies and Certificate in Black Church Studies; Emory University, Candler School of Theology, Atlanta, Georgia.
- Bachelor of Arts; Theology/Religious Studies, Seattle University, cum laude, Seattle, Washington.
- Founder, Executive Director, The TIP Institute, writer, preacher, public speaker, human rights advocate.
For more details, please visit my website: www.tipinstitute.org
I am not a biblical scholar! I am a woman with a particular “call” on my life and this is but one of the many ways that I have been given to carry it out. I am an open and freely thinking woman with a mind of my own. As I enter into this dialogue, know that I am bringing along with me, my education, personal experiences, and scholarly opinions and suppositions of others.
Toward that end, I hope to assist and insist that you approach the bible from a critical point of departure. To do that, I may have to first dis-empower you to empower you. That is to say that I hope this class challenge and shakes your faith in ways it has never been before. I seek to aid you in developing a deeper understanding of the bible and the imago dei (the image of God).
While in seminary, I had the opportunity to “sit at the feet” of many renowned scholars, preachers and teachers who nurtured my fervor for authenticity. Chief among them was a New Testament scholar, who wrote, “Theologia Habitus Est!” – Theology is a way of life. It resonated within me and remains a guiding principle for my life and one that I hope will inspire you as well.

“THEOLOGIA HABITUS EST!”
In the beginning i must say WOW!
ReplyDeleteI spent many a day and night pondering this trying to understand how this fit and what it meant!
Now I know i don't have to fix your plate man!
I've got my seat belt fastened and from what I've read I'm tightening it up some more. I can't wait to see the interaction of my other blog sisters and brothers. Thanks Rev. Henry.
