I’m back home after spending the last few days at Together for the Gospel (and/or traveling there and back). As usual I found myself unable to update the site while on the road. At some point I’ll provide a few reflections. But for now, let me post just a few links I collected along the way.

Drew Marshall – Last Saturday I was a guest on the Drew Marshall Show (and, for a time, so was Spencer Burke). I found this a particularly interesting interview since Drew started out quite hostile but, it seemed to me at least, that over the course of the time we spent together, he started to get me a little bit. Just be warned that it’s not always entirely family-friendly since Marshall tries to toe the line of shock jock.

Farewell Emerging Church – Speaking of Spencer Burke, here’s an article from WORLD saying that the Emerging Church is now officially dead.

Jennifer Knapp – I was sorry to read this. I’ve always loved Jennifer Knapp’s music (Kansas would easily make a list of my top-25 Christian albums of all time). After years of denying rumors that she is a lesbian, she has just come out of the closet.

  • Foggy future

    On the Far Side of Obedience

    To be human is to be finite—to be limited in our knowledge of past, present, and future. We exist within strict boundaries of time and space, so that we cannot see beyond our present location or beyond our present moment. This is a feature of our humanity and not a bug…

    A La Carte (October 13)

    A La Carte: I miss the stars / Count the cost / Shame as the vicious trap of sexual sin / Clouds of shame and unbelief / When you’ve been blindsided / Book and commentary sale / and more.

  • For All the Noise We Make…

    We must be as eager to hear the Scripture as to hear the sermon, and we must be as expectant that God will speak to us through the Word as through the message. Rightly do many churches preface their Bible reading with words like, “Listen as I read God’s holy Word.”
