At the last minute I ran off to the Renovaré conference in Atlanta. It was an interesting experience. I thought I would give you some of the great quotes from my notes: Ken Boa who has authored over 70 books on Apologetics, the Spiritual life and much more said, “If you are not content with what you have you won’t… Read more →
In the Der Spiegel Online today I found an article about what Germans believe, hope and fear. Fascinating. The first graphic is on the left but there is much more. Freedom of expression is an incredibly high value for them. Over 90% of men and women thought this. Less than half believe in life after death (48% of women and… Read more →
I was totally impressed with an addon to Firefox called Zotero. It makes the Web more useful and fits perfectly into the kinds of things that will bring us to Web 3.0.

So, this morning, once again, I submitted… Read more →

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kxup3OS5ZhQ&w=425&h=350] Go to Youtube.com I really enjoyed this video from AtGoogleTalks in the Authors@Google series. I particularly wanted to put it here because I like the way he shows how faith is not just an intellectual decision and how it makes sense of the world. Good stuff. The Q&A at the end are worth it too. Tags: apologetics, faith .
I found the mp3s for the conference “Inside the Missional Matrix!” and have been enjoying them. The conference was held on March 23 and 24. The talk that I found the most challenging was Todd Hunter’s talks “The Meaning of Missional” parts one and two. One of the great things about listening to mp3s is that if you want to… Read more →
I have been fascinated with cities and how churches interact with them. A friend of mine, Andreas Wolf, likes to talk about large groups of people, nations and cities, from a multi-dimensional perspective. He likes to think of them like a cube. His cube is a bit more dramatic looking but the idea is basically the same. You can see… Read more →
