Tulip Driven Life 2.0

Hello everyone,

I've get some big, exciting announcements for the Tulip Driven Life.

Over the last couple years that I've been posting to the TDL, there has grown a stream of supporters who have frequented the blog. It's not a large number, but it is a steady number. I have come to realize that, if this blog is ever going to have a higher ceiling, there will have to be quality, daily postings that are not overly lengthy. This is something I simply do not have time to do on my own.

Therefore, I am pleased to announce that The Tulip Driven Life will now be welcoming several other bloggers who believe that the teachings of the TULIP should guide and shape our lives. So far, 4 have agreed to come on board, with two more pending.

The four that have joined are:

Sean Rice
Nathan Fox
Christopher Denman
Thomas Clayton Booher (my Father).


I hope to have a brief bio and perhaps a picture of each of them up in the next few days. They will each post once a week, and I too will post once a week. However, my posts will be different from the others because.....

I AM WORKING ON A BOOK BASED OFF THE TULIP DRIVEN LIFE!!!!

That's right, I know you've all been screaming for this. The book will be based off the blog, and will be an e-book, which will probably be $0.99 on Amazon. Tomorrow I will post the introduction to the book, which will explain what it is all about and give a brief summary of the contents of each chapter. Then, once a week, I will post a portion of the first several chapters of the book. So, that will be my postings for the next couple months, at least.

The others will write on anything and everything they want, and I look forward to seeing what they have to say. I hope you will stop by and read their musings as well.

For now, enjoy the new layout for the blog and the new background logo which is pictured below. It's still a work in progress, but I think it looks fresh and is a nice change for this new stage of the Tulip Driven Life. I think the new default layout will make it easier to peruse all the different postings on the blog, which will be especially important now that there will be daily postings.

For His Glory,
Thomas F. Booher

Why Pastors Shouldn't Preach In Jeans (Especially Skinny Jeans)

By: Thomas F. Booher I can't think of a better way to get labeled a legalist than to title a post like this. Hopefully by the end you will not see this as legalism and will see this as what it is- my attempt at describing what I believe is proper ecclesiology as defined by God in Scripture. So then, what is church? What does Scripture say we should be doing and not doing on Sunday mornings? That's what I want to explore. The Bible says to gather together in Christ's name; to teach, encourage, and admonish one another; to sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in our hearts to God (Heb. 10:24-25; Mat. 18:20; Col. 3:16). There are to be deacons (Acts 6:1-6) and elders (Ti. 1:5) in the church who act as overseers, and in the case of elders, are the shepherds of the flock who teach the word and rebuke with authority (Ti. 1:9).  God must call one to be a pastor/elder (Eph. 4:11). As such those who are called by God to preach the word are held to a ...

The Stone Choir/Corey Mahler Invert God's Revelation

https://coreyjmahler.com/the-european-peoples-and-christianity/  *****EDIT: Some have said that they, or at least Corey Mahler perhaps believes, that the European religions were deviations from Christianity, believed by Noah and his sons. Over time, sinful man and demons twisted these European religions, which I think their argument is that it was originally Christian/derived from Noah and his offspring. Nordic paganism had the most in common with Christianity, even with Odin sacrificing himself on a tree, and therefore the Europeans were the most ripe and ready to embrace Christianity and continue to advance the cause of Christ more than other peoples/races/nations over the last 2,000 years since Christ.  To that I simply say, I appreciate the context given, but even if all that were true (maybe it is, maybe it is not), it doesn't change the fundamental points of my post below. Syncretism, Odinism, etc., even if it was somehow a distorted derivation flowing from the true...

William Gouge's Domestical Duties: Quotes and Comments

 I hope to begin a post here that I periodically update, of quotations from William Gouge's Of Domestical Duties. I am going to quote from this version primarily: https://www.monergism.com/thethreshold/sdg/gouge/Domestical%20Duties%20-%20William%20Gouge.pdf  The book has been said to have been as popular as Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress and Matthew Henry's commentaries in its heyday. Gouge was one of the chief members of the Westminster Assembly of Divines, which gave us the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms. In short, the substance of what Gouge wrote was held by most all the Westminster Divines/Puritans on home and family life, regarding marriage, children, duties of husband to wife, wife to husband, children to parents, parents to children, and also servants and masters to one another.  Here is an extended quotation of Gouge that I will start with, and add to later. Enjoy.  "The third reason taken from an husband's resemblance unto Christ herein, ...
