Save the bonobos in the Congo:

\nWe’ve agreed to do some speaking in South Africa from May 4-13. Our contact person is Ds. Attie Nel in Rustenberg near Johannesburg. Needless to say, we are very excited about this.
\nNew blog of Tamara Buchan<\/a>, a Covenant missional church planter in Pine Lake near Seattle: the church is Missio Lux.
\nBut Don<\/a>, did you hear the birds? Are those “bird-sensitive-thingies?
\nI have for a long time told folks that Matthew 6:33 isn’t the nice gentle warm idea many think — so Dan Brennan’s recent series<\/a> is worth printing out and filing away for a good reminder.
\nJohn Frye’s 4th post<\/a> in a series on Jesus as the first emergent leader.
\nMichael Kruse<\/a> is one of the sharpest thinkers I’ve read in the blog world when it comes to Christians and economics.
\n1. Some are beginning to see more in the Last Supper<\/a> than they Alexandrians saw in Jesus’ parables!
\n2. Another item<\/a> to add to my list of why not to own an iPod.
\n3. Am I the only one who has not heard of the Beloit Mindset List<\/a>?
\n4. Privacy rights<\/a> could become a much bigger issue, but the article points to the reality that many simply don’t seem to care.
\n5. Br. Maynard and his family<\/a> is praying with the church.
\n6. LA Times piece<\/a> on Cardinal George’s role in the scandals of priests.
\n7. Karen<\/a> was in the news recently and reminds us all for the need to remember.

\n8. Dan Kimball’s wise and balanced words<\/a>.
\n9. Sivin Kit put me onto this clever program and it rates my blog at this level:
\n\"cash
\n10. <\/a>McDonalds has entered the coffee battle<\/a>. [Sometimes my Chicago Tribune links don’t work — so if this isn’t working, just know that McD’s is now starting to brew more coffees.]
\n11. I’m all for birding, and I don’t like cats, but this isn’t the way<\/a> to solve the problem of cats hunting our birds.
\nSports:
\nThe Bears!

\nThe Juice slashed and passed through the Buckeyes.

\nI’ve given the ugly Ducks a hard time for their uniforms, but when Dixon went down Thursday evening with a knee surgery the life was sucked from the team. They’ll be back — the Ducks are still one of the best teams in the nation.
\nThe rumor is that this is actually John Franke, Viking uberFan.
