Here is a reality so profoundly deep to adoptive parents that we can hardly take it in. Thanks to Dawn Husnick<\/a>.
\nA time most of us simply cannot even imagine<\/a>.
\n Save fuel money<\/a>; eat beans. Marko, this one\u2019s for you and your small group!
\n Fr. Rob<\/a> rivals Steve McCoy with pictures: talk about some cool pictures.
\nKris is keen on replacing the curtains to the front window, which is a big one, and she really does want to know what I think of her ideas, and the problem is this: I have no maps in my brain for knowing anything about such things. I\u2019m determined to say nothing but encouraging words to her ideas.
\nI have to mention these reviews of Praying with the Church<\/em> for one reason: it expresses what I hoped for \u2014 evangelicals in search of a short, readable guide to prayer books. Thanks to Drew Moser<\/a> and to Matt Wiebe<\/a>.
\n1. I spent Monday evening and Tuesday until about 1pm with a clutch of youth pastors in Estes Park, and come home to find this incredible story about a junior high boy on Marko\u2019s blog<\/a>.
\n2. Now that I\u2019ve become a bit more sensitive to junior high ministries, I have to brag like a madman about how great it is that Don Johnson<\/a>, at Montecito Covenant, devotes time every year to teaching junior highers. Did you see this Marko?
\n3. Greg Newton<\/a> has wandered and wondered his way right into the missio Dei view. Good for him.
\n4. I\u2019ve posted a couple of times about women and ministry, but I got it wrong and Andrew Jones (TSK)<\/a> gets it right!!!!!
\n5. Michael Kruse is a serious blogger, and this series (not done yet) on theology and economics<\/a>, whatever your view, is worth storing at a place for serious reading.
\n6. Well, I\u2019m wondering about what those in the PacNW are thinking about the prediction<\/a>.
\n7. When I see studies like this <\/a>I have ambivalent feelings \u2014 glad that marriage is recognized, saddened that it comes off so rough for happy single folk. I\u2019m inclined to think that it has to do with deep, meaningful relationships. I\u2019d like to know the age of the average nun and monk, because many of them I run into seem like they are 90 and spry.
\nWe didn\u2019t know when the interview I gave would appear on CBS TV, but here\u2019s the link<\/a>. Kris said, \u201cDon\u2019t blink or you\u2019ll miss it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
