Bob’s back home again<\/a>.
\nI’ll stop raving about Jim Martin’s blog<\/a> when he grows stale; no sign of that happening yet. Wise stuff, and a great post on a night he’d like to forget (except who cares about the Cowboys?).
\nJohn Frye’s got the makings of a great series<\/a>.
\nMaybe one of the more thoughtful posts about how our faith and the business world, even justice system, intersect can be found at T.N. Freeman II’s blogsite<\/a>.
\nDo movies connected to Christianity help the Church’s evangelism? According to Barna, no. Skye Jethani posts at Out of Ur on this<\/a>, and the comments provide a nice thread through an issue. And recent news reports are asking if Hollywood is now trying to get the Christians out to movies.
\nThe answer to this question<\/a> is “Not quite yet.”
\nBiggest flops in the NFL Draft<\/a>.
\nWhat is emergent? YSMarko <\/a>has a nice post on this.
\n1. I’ve told students for years the real “pastoral” epistle of Paul’s letters can be found in the heart of 2 Corinthians. Why? Because Paul divulges his heart. So does Jamie Arpin-Ricci in this post<\/a>.
\n2. Some Australian officials for cheerleaders have told the Australians to cover up the midriff<\/a>. Now I’d like them to add a codicil that insists that young men be banned from showing off the tops of their gross boxers.
\n3. Is John Frye<\/a> a Lumberlogian and a Theolojack?
\n4. Very good post by Brad Bergfalk<\/a> about the importance of preaching on Easter Sunday. And I’ve heard Brad preach, and he’s got the gift.
\n5. Anthony Smith<\/a> is starting a good series on McLaren’s new book. I’ll take a crack at it myself.
\n6. I’ve not seen this before, but Br. Maynard’s<\/a> got a great idea for parents to use with their kids.
\n7. Fr. Rob Merola<\/a> on a good Easter Sunday (and a long one).
\n8. Online sources for The DaVinci Code<\/em> by Stephen Shields<\/a>. Very good source.
\n9. Cars and Gas Mileage: Good report<\/a>.
\n10. Ted Gossard, at Jesus Community, has a nice reminder about intergenerational <\/a>gatherings.
\nI agree.<\/a>
\nBarry Bonds: we watched the ESPN game last Sunday evening between LA Dodgers and SF Giants, and were swamped with Joe Morgan’s fawning over Barry Bonds. Tell us about the game, Joe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
