This weekend marks five years since the birth of this blog. It’s hard to measure how much the thoughts and conversations I’ve had here have marked my journey, but I know it’s significant. This blog began in a time of personal transition, and in many ways, that transition continues. My best hope is that the [...]

I received a review copy of A New Kind of Conversation. The subtitle is Blogging Toward a Postmodern Faith. My first impression was that this was a book about blogging, and how this online conversation is helping shape postmodern faith. I thought it might be interesting. But on a closer look, I realized it was [...]
From the How I Spent My Thanksgiving Break department comes a new blog design. The new look went live yesterday, though I still have a few tweaks to make here and there. I’ve used the Thesis theme for a few different sites, but this is the most extensive reworking of it that I have done. [...]
Hello to all who are thinking about blogging. I’ve been at it since mid 2004, and I think I have one important lesson to share. There may be other lessons I could offer, but I think I am more qualified than anyone to talk about this particular topic. Google seems to think I am too… [...]
Last night, while watching Michael Clayton, I started playing around with a new template for this blog. That might not have been the best idea, because I missed about three, or fifteen, important developments in the plot. But at least I have a new template to show for it. My sidebar had built up about [...]
In addition to the bits I posted here last week, I have posted some more indepth reflection on our time in Austin on the Hodos Project blog. A few have wondered aloud why I am maintaining a separate blog for the Hodos Project. The Hodos Project blog is streamlined and focuses on updates for those [...]
I’ve started a new blog to share the more specific details of our church planting journey with friends and supporters. The blog is called The Hodos Project. Hodos Project is a code name of sorts for this early stage of our family’s transition to Austin to form a new faith community. Hodos is the Greek [...]
Things have been quiet around here as my blogging energy has gone toward getting Creativityist off to a strong start these past few weeks. In spite of the attention I’ve given over there, I have no intention of dropping this blog. It will continue as an outlet for my personal and theological wonderings…and wanderings. I [...]
It’s been a hassle, but I think I finally got ecto connected to my blog. I’ve never been in favor of an offline editor, but I’ve found that sometimes I just didn’t want to hassle with the wordpress backend. Maybe the ‘convenience’ of Ecto will lead to more blogging. I guess I have 20 remaining [...]
I fancy myself a blogger, but I guess I probably need to actually blog more than one or two times a month if I want to fancy myself so. Life hasn’t brought anything major our way, but there has been enough going on to keep me from putting a lot of energy into writing (or [...]
Our family blog was pretty much dormant for the fall until we finally added a post a few days ago. Hopefully it will be active again in the months to come as I think I’ve finally found a setup that will work for Sherri to post without having to jump through a bunch of technical [...]
Hmm….when you go two weeks without a post, people start to wonder if you are still alive. I am…but thanks for the emails. My brain has certainly been working a lot, but spare energy is going other places besides the blog right now. I hope to reacquire some momentum for the blog soon, but in [...]
Let me tell you about my good friends, Josh and Josh. They have time — too much apparently. They gladly fill my inbox with all of those links that waste time and kill braincells. Being that I am a giver — and that I don’t like crap in my inbox — I created a blog [...]
