I\u2019m not speaking this week, but I\u2019ll be at Emmaus Community on December 10th, and then at an Emergent cohort (Up\/rooted) on December 11th, in Park Ridge. Details can be found here<\/a>.
\nGood site to add to your links: Joel Garver at Sacra Doctrina<\/a>.
\nThe new, cool blog of the week: Phil Shepherd at Drive Thru Society<\/a>.
\nVery serious paper on missions and world religions<\/a>. (HT: Matt Stone)
\nNot only \u201cwise counsel\u201d but also timely: Phil Monroe\u2019s worth reading<\/a> friends.
\nKaren\u2019s got a good set of thoughts about praying (communing?) to\/with the dead<\/a>.
\nGood site, and I like to one post, to be aware of: Cheryl Schatz<\/a>.
\n1. The Pope and Islam<\/a>.
\n2. Good interview<\/a> with one of our favorite artists, Fernando Ortega. (And I know Karen\u2019s done an interview, too.)
\n3. Rangel contends<\/a> if we had a draft we might not go to war so easily. Anyone followed this discussion during Rangel\u2019s career?
\n4. Daniel Sharples has a nice start to a memoir<\/a>.
\n5. What I like most about the emerging movement is that it is being appreciated and implemented and adjusted and critiqued almost everywhere. Here\u2019s a good one from Mark Devine<\/a> (and the previous one he gets after me a bit \u2014 nicely though).
\n6. Good scan of \u201c missional apologetics<\/a>.\u201d (HT: Matt Stone)
\n7. Nice post by Ted on the challenge of love<\/a> and being gracious.
\n8. Thanks to Tony and Jess<\/a>.
\n9. That\u2019s the car I drive <\/a>(mine\u2019s got 110K miles on mine).
\n10. Good post at Blind Beggar on \u201c Third Place<\/a>.\u201d (HT: Steve McCoy)
\nOn our walk yesterday, Kris and I spotted two migrating Buffleheads.
\n $\"Bufflehead\"$ <\/a>
\nSports:
\nFirst, the worst dressed teams<\/a> in sports. Lots of hockey teams show up. Notice that golfers have to be rated as the best-dressed professional athletes.
\nSecond, nice to see those NCAA basketball games in full swing now. Marquette beats Duke.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
