A must-read about Robert Webber<\/a>.
\nAnd Francis J. Beckwith, President this year of the Evangelical Theological Society, has converted to Roman Catholicism. He tells his story<\/a> with loads and loads of comments. (I can’t get a link specifically to that post, but I’ve tried. Now see here <\/a>and here<\/a>.) and some tongue-in-cheek commentary<\/a>, too!
\nWe’ve got some White crowned sparrows<\/a> in our backyard and they might be nesting. We saw our first Northern Orioles earlier in the week on a walk. Trees are filled with warblers — those busy bodies who won’t sit still long enough for me to grab their distinctive markers.
\nChicago’s religious leaders<\/a> — a nice section in the Chicago Tribune.
\nEmerging story of the week: quest + interbay = one church = cool<\/a>.
\nNew blog of the week: check out Kent Anderson<\/a>, a fine pastor and friend.
\nKeep your eye on this blog, too: Bill Donahue and friends<\/a>.
\nSBL resolution<\/a> regarding archaeological sites in Iraq.
\nHow depressing is this<\/a>? Especially for those of us who have “mature figures”.
\nDuring American Idol my e-mail “ding” goes silent.
\nDo you write like a male or female? Try this<\/a>. (HT: Tamara Dull)
\n1. What to do with leisure <\/a>time?
\n2. What troubles young people<\/a> the most? (HT: Brad Boydston)
\n3. At last<\/a>.
\n4. Evidently according to this Danish blogger<\/a>, I’m the “grand old man” of the emerging church.
\n5. Very responsible piece on emerging and the SBC by Zach Roberts<\/a>.
\n6. Lots of us will be watching for more on Herod’s tomb<\/a>.
\n7. Dream come true<\/a>!
\n8. Excerpt from a book on divorce that looks like one worth reading — from Wineskins <\/a>magazine.
\n9. Our piece at Out of Ur blog<\/a>.
\n10. And name your son “Beav” — what a hoot<\/a>!
\nSports:
\nBilly Muldowney Watch: Hes got 2 wins, 3 losses, and an ERA of 5.24
\nThe Cubs are hitting a bump in the road — but they had a great winning streak to get up and over the waterline.
\nAnd Tiger Woods … what is it 9 of his last fourteen tourneys that he has won?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
