farewell to a legend (g’bye Josh Brown)

Monday, April 27th, 2009

It appears that blogger/podcaster Josh Brown has all but entirely given up on Web 2.0. Just over a month ago (After enigmatically going from a habitual blogger to only posting pics of his [adorable] kid), Josh posted a note, aptly entitled, “Why I Don’t Blog Anymore.” That in and of itself is a bit of [...]

New Venture: Open Table Theology

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

There are a lot of thinkers out there, thereĀ  are a lot of tinkerers out there, there are a lot of voices that don’t always have a platform to speak from out there, and there is a lot to learn from all of those people. My hope is via “Open Table Theology” to bring some [...]

my hope for emergent village

Monday, April 20th, 2009

There will be a small conference, starting this Friday, with 24 people discussing the future of Emergent Village. I wanted to take a minute and type out some thoughts/hopes for the future of EV, since it’s been instrumental in much of the conversation and many of the friendships I have grown into over the past [...]

Saturday Link roundup (on a sunday)

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

I worked a ten hour shift yesterday, then went to a bachealor party last night, so I didn’t have a chance to write out the roundup for the week. (Though, to be honest, I probably could have done it yesterday, I’m probably just lazy). First up, my friend Paul responded to my post on becoming [...]

conversing with the other

Friday, April 17th, 2009

I grew up a narrow minded person. Either you agreed with me, and were right (right can mean either correct, or conservative here- back then those words were interchangeable to me), or you didn’t and only needed to be shown how wrong you were. As you probably can guess, this approach doesn’t go over well [...]

Did I kill emergent?

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

So, there I am, just hanging out at work, and all the sudden I get an email. Who is it from? Emergent Village. (Emergent/C Newsletter) “Ok,” I say to myself (not outloud of course, becuase that’s just wierd to talk to yourself out loud in public… if I were at home I probably would have [...]

Thoughts on Pluralism

Monday, April 13th, 2009

I could say 2.0 here, because I have posted on this topic before, but that would be too much of a steal from Adam’s blog series, so we’ll just say “Thought’s on Pluralism” and leave it at that. It’s been a couple months shy of a year since I wrote that first post, and looking [...]

Cobb Cohort meets Tuesday

Saturday, April 11th, 2009

They haven’t updated the main website but, according to the facebook group page, we will be meeting Tuesday night at Johnnie MacCrackens, 7:00. If last months meeting was of any indication, showing up a tad bit earlier than 7:00 will probably be of great benefit. If there are as many people as there were last [...]
