Why I Don’t Twitter
Back Online
So I haven’t posted anything since last week. My server was hacked last Friday and I have just got it back up again. I am now with a new host (hostmonster.com) and have left my old one (siteground.com) whose tech support used to be really great and now is nonexistent. I’ll have more updates this [...]

I have been reading a lot lately about the way things are going in the church in America. There are many ideas out there about what will happen the the western church and the ideals it is built on. From what I understand, some like Phyllis Tickle are thinking it will be a convergence of [...]
Economy and the Church
I have been reading in the blogosphere a lot about how the economy will impact the church and I had a thought this morning while driving into church. About 3 years ago, I served a church that was in an economic crisis. The church had made good plans, but it found itself in a hard [...]

I just finished the Listen Retreat for my youth group. It was a great weekend and for some it was an amazing weekend. The basic idea for this retreat is that theology is for people who don’t hear God. If we heard God (at least perfectly), we probably wouldn’t need theology. So in an effort [...]
Smitten
I have been blogging about a lot of deeper issues lately, so I decided to put a little levity into the mix. That, and I had this great visual from Maker today. It’s called the Smitten and it is for people who like holding hands but don’t want to brave the cold weather.
This picture makes [...]
Theology vs Listening
While I was away at the AMIA Winter Conference I had a thought that has been with me since. The thought came at one of those random moments and, because it hasn’t left like so many others, I am giving it some space to process. The thought is something like this:
“Theology is for people who [...]
