How Sharp the Edge? Christ, Controversy, and Cutting Words. It has spoken courage to me because I get spanked for the words I use in the pulpit also.

i think it's a fascinating move. the new wave of autonomous protestant churches creating "campuses" is nothing new in my opinion, but...at some level borrowing the Catholic model. Lead Pastor oversees the campuses and Campus pastors...like the Pope oversees all of the parishes and cardinals, priests, etc... Protestant multi-campuses have been using technology in ways that if the Catholic church would also use, could really change their organization.

Will Catholic parishes pipe in sermons from the Pope? Does this open up space for protestant multi-campus churches to have productive conversations with the Catholic Church?

Surely there are some organizational lessons Protestant multi-campus churches can learn from the Catholic Church...and vice versa. Surely there are some technological lessons the Catholic Church can learn from Protestant multi-campus churches.

I'm seeing a conference now...loswhit leading worship, groeschel and pope benedict co leading a keynote.

i carry a moleskine, but the sketchbook one without any lines.

i'm a whiteboard addict (two entire walls in my office are whiteboards), so, this allows me instant "whiteboards" when I need them. whether i'm jotting through a new teaching idea, a system, a list of assumptions, etc...

sweet!
