One of the joys of blogging is the virtual relationships I have made over the years. One such friendship is with Mike Erich - the Mad Theologian. I have had so many wonderful conversations with Mike over the years about the bible and our shared faith.Mike passed away on Wednesday. He was 61 and a resident of Utah. I am saddened by his passing. Many of us prayed for his healing from cancer. Here are a few things that I think of when I remember Mike, the Mad Theologian:
- He loved to discuss the scriptures even when we disagreed.
- In our disagreements, he always afforded more grace to me than I to him.
- He really helped me to understand a different way to look at the bible.
- He faithfully offered prayers on the Daily Prayer blog.
- He had a heart for God and wanted all to know His love.
I already miss Mike. He is one of the kindest men that I have never met in person.
Please join me in praying for Mike's wife, family and friends.
And please visit Mike Erich - the Mad Theologian to read more about Mike from his friend Jared.
I'm so sorry for your loss. He was so young. May the Lord grant you and his family peace during this time, and for the time to come. God bless you.
