Date: 01/27/2012

In August of 2011 President Obama put into law a ruling that has caused the Catholic Church to be concerned.  In his attempt to overhaul the health care system in America, he put into motion a law that requires all employers to provide birth control products as part of their medical coverage.  This law is to take effect in August of 2013.   For most people this isn't a big deal, but for those wh ...

To Shape Your Life, Become a River.

Date: 01/27/2012

Rivers are a dominant motif in my personal journey, so it's no wonder I woke up Wednesday morning with them on my mind. In fact, of all my contemplations, rivers are probably my most frequent. So what's the big deal? I wasn't sure at first, until I stopped thinking about the purpose of these rising thoughts and simply let them happen. That's often our first mistake throughout daily life: over ...

"The Concept of Woman"

Date: 01/18/2012

In light of yesterday's spirited discussion on Facebook around women's leadership issues, sparked by Michael Frost's re-posting of Mars Hill teaching pastor Mark Driscoll's very controversial radio interview, I wanted to recommend a wonderful not-so-little (1,100 pages in fact) tome of a book written by Prudence Allen.

Letter from a Birmingham Jail - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Date: 01/16/2012

The Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. wrote this letter while incarcerated on a charge of parading without a permit. It was in response to prominent white religious leaders of the Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist and Roman Catholic churches, and Reform Judaism, who were against his protest marches, fearing violence. In this letter, MLK draws upon theologians from each of the clergymen's own tradit ...
