1. Perhaps the “blog of the week” is the non-blogging about the Emergent-Jewish conversation. After mega-flapping about what would happen, now that it has happened, I’ve hardly seen a comment. Maybe I missed it — and do point it out, because I’m not sniping here.
\n2. [Blog to which I linked is not working: not working now. Sorry.]
\n3. David Fitch has insights about worship and technology<\/a> — and weaves in Jerome Bettis’ mother!
\n4. Thanks to Barack Obama<\/a>, it looks like the Democrats are learning that the way to oppose appointments like Judge Alito is to persuade the American public of a more Democratic orientation — instead of using stall tactics and political or media chicanery. We will see if the Democrats learn.
\n5. What I learned in logic from my mother<\/a>: thanks Hamo!
\n6. A good example of gracious, generous orthodoxy <\/a>at Jim Martin.
\n7. I have been reading Andrew Jones for about a year, and this post on emerging-missional<\/a> is exactly why. Andrew speaks with an independent mind, but one in touch with what is going on; and he speaks with perspective from the growth of the emerging movement. (I happen to think there is also an ancient-future element that is not always that missional.)
\nIf you like fountain pens and won’t get into trouble with those who love you,<\/em> I’m recommending a very fine pen by Pelikan (maybe my favorite fountain pen maker) called “Piccadilly<\/a>.” (If you buy one, tell them I sent you and maybe they’ll give me a discount.) I bought their similar Piazza Navona because Kris and I had dinner at that Piazza last summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
