Lost and not found

The content of sites like this become baffling to me. I thought that this was a big deal in the Diocese of MN - this emergent/ence/ing stuff. I guess it was only a definition, identity used in the chaos that was/is surrounding the Episcopate in MN and what is institutional Christianity in the 21st century. Oh well, I have saved the site for future reference, if this emerging/ence/ent stuff has any relevance beyond bookstores and urban anti-institution types.Happy Holidays as the gift is…See More

Disgusted Discussion on Discourse of Discontent

I thought a place of alliterative discourse would be handy for those that are terrified of commitment to other oblique forms of interaction. I am practicing for a return to academe to pursue the allusive concrete statement in written or oral discourse. How am I doing in my practice runs?

"Just dug out my Advent Liturgies to decide whether an edit is due. It looks like these are a 2005/6 edit/update. I betcha I could ramble on about liturgies, the Viqueens, the MN Goofers, the Twinkies, or any such thing and NO One would notice or…"

here i sit all broken hearted; thought I had to blog but only quoted.

Thought I was goin' to say something then realized - I really have never had anything to say.Have been thinking about ecclessia and baselia in terms of Jesus saying "these are my mother, my sisters, and brothers - those that do the will of God."

"I love my "old" MacBook with the camera. I probably won't make any of the meetings due to a prior commitment to DIW Clericus which meets on the 2nd Wednesdays of the month. I will be following the discussion thru the podcasts that…"

"sometimes this what I feel like when I think about MSN, the BCMS theology paper, discourse around discipleship. Since I'm new to this site I'm probably breaking protocol by replying. If this is a faux paux mea culpa!"
