Software Developer, part-time pastor, and I raise chickens. Who can't love a chicken?
For Christianity.stackexchange.com, my religious background:
- Grew up in a Protestant, evangelical, nondenominational "Bible Church" (-1990)
- earned a M.Div at a Baptist Seminary (2008) and pastored a very small Baptist church (2004 - 2008)
- Currently serving in an Episcopal Church, and yes I did that site. (2008 - present)

How does one discern between thoughts inspired by the Holy Spirit and those produced from themselves Welcome to C.SE. This is a good question, but it might be difficult for this site to answer. |

Why did God wrestle with Jacob? Welcome to C.SE. I invite you to our FAQ. I'm not really sure I see how this exactly answers the question, though. |

Why isn't God mentioned in Esther? This seems a bit tenuous to me |

What is the significance of the Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden? Welcome to C.SE. This answer really seems to stray from the question asked. If you could source more of your claims, and be tighter with the connection to what is being asked, it would improve the answer greatly. Additionally, you may want to check out our FAQ. But welcome! |

Why isn't God mentioned in Esther? +1 for separating out canonicity from content. Welcome to C.SE, btw! |

How to know whether God truly spoke to you? K... Ultimately, I'm really thinking this is pastoral - and my VTC is not that this isn't a good question, just that it isn't a good fit for what we can do here. Please seek out a personal guide (Pastor, Priest, Minister) who can know you. As a doctor, I'm not going to diagnose from a distance. As a pastor, I can't really do it either. |

Are there any other books, divined by God, regarding Christianity? +1 I really like how you picked out what would have been the leading contenders! |

Are there any other books, divined by God, regarding Christianity? Put another way, as much as I'd love to be able to add "Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis into the canon, and as inspired as I think it is, I can't. Inspired Scripture lays the framework - everything else can only hope to further the understanding I originally received by God's direct inspriation in the original canon. |

Are there any other books, divined by God, regarding Christianity? Maybe I'm reading too much into rpeg's question here, but I really think he's after "What's divine but not in the Bible?" That is exactly the thrust of the duplicate I nominated in my VTC. |
