The Daily Scribe

Good news every one! The Daily Scribe is back. It went away for a while but is now back with a vengeance. It’s basically a guild of bloggers that together aggregate their feeds into one spot so that you don’t have to jump all over the web looking for good content. The content is made [...]

Friday Is For Playlists

It’s been 3 weeks so this list is a bit lop-sided. I found some old Weezer b-sides earlier in the week so they’ve been strong. As well as Sufjan’s Christmas post-Thanksgiving.

* Bonus: 670 different songs this week which would last 1.7 days; or 3.12 gigabytes of music

Most Commented Blogs

After the infamous Ken Silva post got 50+ comments (before I turned them off), I got curious as to what my most commented posts were. So I added a new plugin to the 2nd sidebar. It gives you the Top 10 Most Commented Posts. You can download the plugin here if you’re interested. It’s got [...]

Now that I’m [...]

The Consumptive Church: Different Starting Points

The Context For My Starting Point
Derek made some solid points about what the church is in the comments yesterday. We sort of jumped off on a rabbit trail discussing the nature of the church, which led me in to a rather generic cliff note version of the competing narratives that I perceive to be out [...]

My Apologies

After much consideration, and as much as it pains my inner child, I’ve decided to take down my last post about Ken Silva. I was rude. Kind of a brat. And too sarcastic for some people. I apologize both to my readers and to Ken for being an all around jerk. I can’t lie. I [...]

The Consumptive Church: The Context For My Starting Point

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about consumption (really all year) in the context of economics. Over the last few weeks I’ve been trying to make the connection in my head between consumption and it’s relationship to the church. So I think I’m going to try and develop some of these thoughts more fully and [...]

Ken Silva Is A Great Watch Dog

We’ve got 2 new blogger awards that I’m announcing here . . . FIRST, the CYBER WATCH-DOG BLOGGER AWARD. After Ken Silva combed through my comments and found me using the word “shit” (read to the bottom of his last post), he has further pointed out the error of my ways. Ken is a great [...]
