The Gospel according to Neo
Wednesday, May 11th, 2005Church planter Matt Kruse started a blog last month. Yesterday’s post was so “postmodern”: “We preached Jesus from a movie with guns and helicopters smashing into buildings, but everyone trusted me enough and is thinking missionally enough to go with it.” His church, Edgeworth, is also launching an innovative, web-based outreach this weekend at a [...]

A new kind of Christian
Monday, May 2nd, 2005… keeps his word, unlike my promise to blog about Brian McLaren’s book of the same title when I read it last month. MK reminded me of my transgression so I’ll make an introductory comment beyond the half dozen or so brief references weeks ago. God’s timing remains ever mysterious to me. When it seems [...]

Why not fruit salad?
Friday, April 8th, 2005A youth ministry friend of mine has become something of a muse for me recently. He inspired this article last month, and now this post after a series of emails about the nature of partnerships. He made a great point about how difficult it is to prioritize working with groups whose missions contrast with our [...]
