		<title>A Sustainable Faith</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This April I&#8217;ll be speaking at the Sustainable Faith conference in Florida.  I&#8217;ll be joined by Shane Claiborne, Spencer Burke and Cheri Honkala.  The primary question around which we&#8217;ll be gathering is, &#8220;How can we be sustainably committed to justice over the long haul and not become overwhelmed by the enormity of it’s scope and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Be Careful Little Eyes&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m diving into a number of places where the term &#8220;mimetic&#8221; and &#8220;mimesis&#8221; keep coming up.  I will have to talk about that more later, but for the time being, you must read this article.  It is about mirror neurons, which apparently are highly adaptable cells that allow your brain to actually imitate the actions [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Two-Sided Coin of Humanity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I watched a Lenten documentary tonight.  It wasn&#8217;t about Lent, technically, but it was one of the most powerful descriptions of our human condition that I have seen in quite some time.  The documentary was called Pray the Devil Back to Hell and tells the story of the courageous and powerful women of Liberia who [...]]]></description>

		<title>A New Metaphor is Emerging&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems popular these days for people to virtually ponder and verbally process where we all are in the conversation/movement/revolution/whatever-name-will-not-offend-you-and-create-another-retaliatory-blogpost called emergent/emerging/emersion/emergence.  And though I&#8217;ve certainly not read all such posts, I have read enough of them to notice a trend in the language to describe this shift.  (Disclaimer:  I mostly gleaned this from blog [...]]]></description>

		<title>Peace By Piece Conference</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
If people like Pete Rollins, Chris Haw, Karen Sloan and a bunch of neo-monastics are your kind of people, you need to go to the Peace by Piece conference in two weeks.  It&#8217;s incredibly affordable, and you can find cheap fares on Southwest if you&#8217;re anywhere nearby.  I&#8217;m really looking forward to my time there, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Primal Altruism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve been discussing the Didache at Journey, and last night we had an interesting conversation about the verse &#8220;Abstain from fleshly and bodily lusts&#8221; (1:4).  I know-  you think you can guess what follows this.  But you&#8217;d be wrong.  Here&#8217;s what the Didache says immediately following that verse:  &#8221;If someone strikes your right cheek, turn the other [...]]]></description>

		<title>Church:  The Place Where We Do Weird Things in Groups</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every once in a while, when I&#8217;m doing something I do regularly, I&#8217;ll have this moment where I realize how strange and odd it is that I am doing it.  This morning it happened in yoga class.  I go there every week.  I&#8217;ve practiced yoga for years.  But today, for whatever reason, I was sitting [...]]]></description>

		<title>Avatar&#8217;s Giving People the Blues</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
This weekend my husband and I went to go see the movie Avatar.  Neither of us had high expectations, other than that it was to be a virtual feast (literally) of cinematic tricks.  On that expectation it delivered far beyond what I could have imagined; the world of Pandora was absolutely breathtaking.  I distinctly recognized [...]]]></description>

		<title>Merry Epiphany!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Three cheers for Epiphany!  Today is the day we remember the story of the wise men/magi/camel-riding, gift-bearing mystery men from the East who traveled halfway across the known world to visit the Christ Child.  I love the day so much I devoted an entire chapter to it in my book.  Here&#8217;s a snippet:

		<title>What do you do when a revolution isn&#8217;t sexy anymore?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite the Christmas vacation away from my computer screen, I&#8217;ve followed a bit of the blog banter around Andrew Jones&#8217; (aka Tall Skinny Kiwi) blog post declaring the end-date of the Emerging Church Movement.  What I say below is in no means a way to throw criticism back in Andrew&#8217;s face, as he has brought [...]]]></description>
