SCL Old Guest Post – No Luck

2025
Here is a guest post I wrote for SCL back in the day (2011 in case you’re wondering). It wasn’t run because I didn’t actually write a full blog post for Jon, I just sent him an outline of ideas. But I decided to fill it out and present it to you today.
What role should luck have in Christianity? We do see people casting lots, which would seem to us to be a game of chance, but it also a way for God to communicate. Christian broadcasters should announce Stanford’s quarterback as “Andrew Providence” or “Andrew Blessing” rather than “Andrew Luck”.
Similarly, gatherings with food should be called “pot blessings”.
That’s how long ago I wrote that – Andrew Luck was a college player. Since then he has gone into the NFL as a player, retired as a player, and then joined the executive ranks.
And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.
Jonah 1:7 KJV
