Some jury duty reflections

August 22nd, 2009

I spent the last several days in jury duty for Dekalb County, Georgia, starting on Tuesday and ending on Friday.

Jimmy Carter leaves the SBC

July 22nd, 2009

I want to bring specific attention here to the recent letter that Jimmy Carter wrote, concerning his departure from the Southern Baptist Convention after six decades, due to its doctrines concerning women.

The Out of Bounds Church

June 23rd, 2009

A few years ago, during the process of earning a PhD, Steve Taylor wrote The Out of Bounds Church? to show the ways the church was and is changing.

June 16th, 2009

I believe this will be an image that we will look back on and remember the way many remember Tiananmen, twenty years later.

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.

The irrelevance of the far right

March 5th, 2009

There is a growing irrelevance that the far right is experiencing in this country, and many believe that it is entering what will be an extended loss of influence due to a failure to recognize that people in the United States have moved away from its mannerisms. Interestingly, this is an area in which the church is proceeding at the same pace as, or actually faster than, the rest of culture: as the lords of the political Right flail for the remnants of their influence, the lords of the Religious Right do so as well.

President Barack Obama

January 20th, 2009

Welcome to President Barack Hussein Obama. I've never watched much of an inauguration before. Before the primaries of 2008, I had never voted before.
