\nAnd some of Albany Park, near North Park University:

\nAnd a slide show of flooding at NPU<\/a>.
\nA hint of what is to come in Blue Parakeet<\/a>\"\"<\/em> is in the new E-Quality online magazine<\/a>.
\nDan Kimball’s going through a life change<\/a>. Marko is always good for a laugh and a link<\/a>. Tony Jones<\/a> has quite the post on talking with the Obama group. One ordinary guy<\/a> as reported by a missional pastor. TSK in Vegas on missional and the internet<\/a> and this report and link<\/a> are of value. Jelani Greenidge was one of my students and I think his call here toward civility<\/a> is a good one. Don Johnson compares stewardship to sobriety<\/a>. iMonk on the real prosperity gospel<\/a>. Ted Gossard<\/a>, one of our steady readers, reviewing LL Barkat, another reader.
\nFitch<\/a>.
\nKruse Kronicle<\/a> has sorted it out. Excellent.
\nRoland Martin<\/a> speaks out for the middle class.
\nI’ve gotten out of practice of indicating where we will be speaking, and I do this because folks give me the business when I’m in their area and don’t let them know on Weekly Meanderings. And as we begin a more vigorous speaking schedule, my Weekly Meanderings get thinner … so my apologies in advance. But here goes for the speaking schedule:

\n1. Say it ain’t so Joe<\/a>.
\n2. Antiestablishmentarian<\/a>.
\n3. Robert Sungenis<\/a> was a very divisive evangelical who is now a Catholic. Wherever he goes he stirs up strife and now he’s stirring up strife about the Catechism.
\n4. Food mistakes by parents<\/a>.
\n5. The future of standalonebloggers<\/a>.
\n6. David Brooks<\/a> is always reasonable, even when you disagree with him.

\n<\/a>
