The idea that I’m about to present came about during a late night talk in college. We were talking about the limitations of our internships, of our schooling and what we wished we could get out of all of these. The result that came during the conversation was the age old system of Apprenticeship. To [...]

I have mentioned that this past summer I listened to about 9 hours of podcasts a day and grew immensely in knowledge and in spiritual maturity.

Today I was listening to a podcast about deacon structures; yeah I know who the heck AM I. (I’m an almost graduate in Music with no ministerial position, as of yet, that works in warehouse) and the man that was speaking started to talk a little about his churches volunteer structure. They allow “owners”, his [...]

After evensong was done I went over to Meagan’s to pray and say goodnight, we ended up talking about a lot of [...]
There is no Emerging Church… A defense of the Emerging Church
Posted in Praxis, tagged Dan Kimball, Emerging Church on January 2, 2008 | 5 Comments »
