Friday May 5, 2006

Emergent: Pastor Paul Martin has turned a corner in his presentation of “Examining Emergent,” moving from the problem to The First Step Toward a Solution.

Humor: Idle hands and a mischevous imagination – Electronic Road Signs and Me (HT: Hip and Thigh).

Blogspotting: Matt Brown commented on The People Who Shape Our World. “Clearly, “Time” thinks that entertainers are the most powerful, “transforming” force on earth. If they are, what does that say about the world we live in?”

Theology: The Together for the Gospel crew have released the final version of their affirmations and denials. Expect much discussion and controversy to begin.
