Bible Reading in 2009

Happy New Year!!! Let’s make 2009 the year we read the whole Bible!  Found this post on Scott H’s Blog, and I thought, hey why not share it with my readers as well: Just for the record, I’m not a huge fan of reading the entire bible in one year. In general, I’d rather drillContinue reading “Bible Reading in 2009”

Welcome Forest Hills Church

I just saw that Forest Hills Church linked to my review and response to other opinions on The Shack.  Thanks so much for the link. Forest Hills Church is doing a Christmas Series called Christmas At The Shack.  Here’s where you can find the messages. On another note, I listened to an interview with WilliamContinue reading “Welcome Forest Hills Church”

Leading the Team Based Church

Just finished Leading the Team Based Church.  It was assigned reading for my Meaning of Christian Community class.  This text was a refreshing book, because it was insanely practical.  Much of my reading thus far has been really deep and hard to apply right away, but I’m already playing with ideas from this book.  Continue reading “Leading the Team Based Church”

Am I the lamest blogger ever?

Well maybe not, but I feel like I’ve been dropping the ball on the whole blog-o-sphere-a-verse lately.  It’s been a pretty busy couple of weeks.  Jocelyn was born a little early, I started my masters degree, and I am reading like a maniac.  So when I do have free time to blog, I don’t reallyContinue reading “Am I the lamest blogger ever?”

Reading YEAH!!! Writing about Reading BOOO!!!

I am totally digging my pre-session reading for the two courses that I am taking this fall.  One is the meaning of Christian Community (it’s about the church) and the other is Theology and Contemporary Media (culture).  These are two of my favorite subjects to talk about, read about, think about.  But I’ve been procrastinatingContinue reading “Reading YEAH!!!
