Six Weeks to Go

May 8, 2008

Shelly and I now have only six weeks until our official “due date.” We are growing in anticipation (and anxiety) as we continue these days.

The pictures is one of many from a Baby Shower we were given by friends from Camp Lakeside, Kansas State, Saint Paul, and family. Here is a link to other pics from that day (May 3, 2008).

We do not know the gender of the child, and find that we are in the minority with that decision. However, is has been fun to guess and to hear people tell us the theories they have for determining the infant’s sex.

More pictures and posts to come!

Everything Must Change – deepshift.org

May 1, 2008

0n the 25th and 26th of April, I was blessed to be able to join Brian McLaren at one of his DeepShift gatherings as part of the Everything Must Change Tour.  He and his team were here in Kansas City to engage people about how it is that we are called as disiples to a revolution of hope, impacting the world in the way of Jesus. 

Here is an audio clip (mp3) of me reflecting on a short segment of this event.  In invite you to listen and offer your reflections.  If you listented to this, what could make this form of media better?

New website for Everything Must Change.  The basic media for the tour will be on this website in a few weeks.
