Patron Saint? I dunno how I feel about that :)

Glad to know you're still "lurking" but you (are and) will certainly be missed not being on the forefront. Hopefully you have some outlet for voicing your opinions unbeknownst to us stuck in the web 2.0 world. Perhaps you'll pop into a cohort sometime soon.

ps: Stop making me feel guilty about still playing WoW, I'm damned good at it and I don't wanna stop!

Ah, but you are a far better blogger/writer than I, it will be a pleasure to have your voice in the mix.

I agree with Adelle, I'm nearly certain that Wallis would never approve of left/right language. I'm going to assume that whoever wrote the press release either didn't clear it with the next level up, or that there was just a complete failure in editing. If sojourners does indeed continue with left/right language, or more specifically support thereof, then I'll probably have to send some letter of discontent, and stir up some questions.

Good job on picking up on this, I normally only read through the front page stories, not the press releases, so I would have missed it.

Twilight!
Ok, ok kidding.

I cannot more highly recommend "The Silmarillion" perhaps you have read it (you said you read Tolkein in HS, but most people just mean LotR when they say that). Also, it's not fiction, but Kevin Roose's "The Unlikely Disciple" was a good non-academic read (about a semester he spent at Liberty University).

:) I'd never wanted Home brewed to go the way of the Nick and Josh podcast. You guys do good work, keep it up.

Aye, I can see the point that you both bring to the table, and Derek your questions are certainly cause a fair bit of introspection. While I, again, do affirm the Lordship of Christ, I think that I am a bit more on the side of learning, and helping others learn, more than, say, an approach that arrogantly throws such ideas out. I'd rather walk the line and proclaim my belief in the Lordship of Christ, while remaining respectful, understanding, and conversant with the beliefs of others.

Perhaps I'm not as heady in regards to such proclamations like an evangelical would be, perhaps not even as much as Paul was. Perhaps I err too much on the side of caution, but I think a healthy respect for the beliefs of the "other" demands a lack of impetuous prostelyzation.

@Derek- Will we see you at the Cohort tomorrow?
@Andrew- Baseball! Bravo! Watch some games between two really good teams, let yourself get sucked in to a close game full of stressful pitches, and you'll be set.

Wow, and i thought getting a post tweeted by emergent village was cool. You definitely got me beat here, :). *jealous*

Tim- thanks for the thoughts, I think we're definitely thinking along the same lines.
Checked out your blog and added it to my reader, you've got some good stuff over there. My question though, why the crap are you a yankee's fan?
