Saturday, May 10th, 2008So it’s the end of the week of Easter 7. Are you still celebrating Easter? After all, today is your last chance before the season of Pentecost begins. Probably not, huh.
I understand. It’s hard to keep our eyes on easter, even for seven weeks, let alone for a whole year. [...]
Friday Fun
Friday, May 9th, 2008With all the talk of the new MarioKart for Wii — I want this accessory for my vintage SNES.
Ricky Williams, part deux.
If you’re a pastor, Scot McKnight’s running a great series interviewing ’seasoned’ pastors. (I feel like I just described pastors like I do my french fries…) Wisdom begins here.
Dude - you get [...]
Reading the News Through the Lens of Faith 1
Thursday, May 8th, 2008Aaargh- so much going on in the world and so little space to post. So little time to talk and respond in the midst of also juggling the other parts or our lives.
Well, let’s take a few moments to talk. There is so much going on in the world, so many stories being hit up [...]
Videos that Make Us Laugh and Think 1
Wednesday, May 7th, 2008I love this video. It combines the power of visual media with the simplicity of parables, something I think Jesus would like.

And like errant elementary school children we have passed up opportunities to understand these things more deeply, to experience their transforming power, and even [...]
Check this stuff out!
Monday, May 5th, 2008Thanks for checking out our blog. We’re going to start in with the heavy duty stuff tomorrow (the start of a discussion about the relationship of pop culture to the church), but for today, just take a second to click on all these links. It’s all stuff that we like! Some of it may be [...]
Reading the News Through the Lens of Faith- 4
Friday, May 2nd, 2008This article on race in America really caught my attention, maybe because it had so many facets to it. It’s focus is on the growing number of people in America who identify themselves as multiracial, as coming from a number of racial backgrounds- black, Caucasian, Hispanic, Native-American, Asian, etc.
But it was about so much more [...]
