I like the new series Bob Robinson&#8217;s got going on <a href=\"http:\/\/vanguardchurch.blogspot.com\/2006\/01\/greed-is-good-is-it-always.html\">Christian ethics<\/a>. We should all get over there for some discussion.<br \/>\n2.

I like thist post on what &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/jimmartin.typepad.com\/place\/2006\/01\/for_adults_only.html#comments\">adult<\/a>&#8221; means by Jim Martin; maybe it shows my age.<br \/>\n6. Pray for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jesustheradicalpastor.blogspot.com\/\">John Frye<\/a>&#8216;s &#8220;emerging&#8221; work in Russia.<br \/>\n7. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jordoncooper.com\/2006\/01\/secret-message-of-jesus-by-brian-d.html\">Jordon Cooper<\/a> is blogging some about Brian McLaren&#8217;s forthcoming book about Jesus.<br \/>\n8. Ted Gossard has been blogging some time. Here&#8217;s a nice thought on <a href=\"http:\/\/communityofjesus.blogspot.com\/2006\/01\/being-vulnerable-in-jesus-community.html\">vulnerability<\/a>.<br \/>\n9. Michael Kruse has a nice <a href=\"http:\/\/krusekronicle.typepad.com\/kruse_kronicle\/2006\/01\/emerging_church.html#comments\">review of Gibbs and Bolger<\/a>.
