A kingdom response to recession

March 16th, 2009

I'm a somewhat regular listener to NPR's All Things Considered. Today, there was a story about a church near Grand Rapids that is trying to respond to the city's worse-than-the-rest-of-the-country economic situation.

International Women’s Day

March 8th, 2009

So today is International Women's Day, which is a major day of global celebration for the economic, political and social achievements of women.

In community, we tell each other stories

January 14th, 2009

I'm a big fan of community, especially lately. I'm also very afraid of it. I tend to be a quiet person until I get to know people, and I often feel awkward until then unless we are having a conversation about which I am very passionate.

Safety

December 21st, 2008

My wife generally likes Christmas music, and Christmas movies, and all that stuff. This year she hasn't been into those things as much, but typically this is the case.

On marriage and the State

December 14th, 2008

In the last month or so, much has been made about marriage and its relationship to the State.

Decomposition of Christian power

December 7th, 2008

To finish my series, I want to put the things I've looked at together a bit more. I've tried to show how the problems in how historical problems in how the church has looked at politics, culture, and pneumatology have led, in some ways, to current trends in American evangelicalism.

Entering Advent 2008

November 29th, 2008

As we enter into the Advent season, I want to provide something to contemplate. As I posted previously, the Atlanta Emergent Cohort recently hosted an event called tnevdA, a reversal of the traditional 25 day countdown to Christmas. The event was a beautiful evening of worship and thought.

Decomposition of Christian culture

November 22nd, 2008

To continue my series, I want to briefly look at Christian culture as it typically exists.

Atlanta happenings for Thanksgiving week

November 20th, 2008

For those in the Atlanta area who are interested in such things, there is a lot of great stuff happening in the next week or so.

Congratulations to Barack Obama

November 5th, 2008

Major congratulations to Barack Obama, to the United States, and to the world. We have seen an historic moment and a significant one. I feel like there is an incredible potential for good change.
