What you do for fun and re-creation?

Reading, playing games (board games, card games, even an occasional role-playing game), listening to music, listening to podcasts.

What do you see as some of the biggest challenges facing Anglicans today?

The perception that Anglicanism is either ineffectual and harmless, or aggressive and bigoted.

What do you see as some of the biggest opportunities for Anglicans today?

There seem to be an awful lot of people looking for the kind of spirituality that we're so good at keeping secret among ourselves -- people who feel "out of step" with the world and in need of a spiritual focus, but who can't see themselves encountering God in the churches they're most familiar with.

What do you want Anglimergent to be? and what other Anglimergent resources, gatherings, activities or events would you find helpful for your ministry?

I'm in a relatively new volunteer role as head of communications at Redeemer, and would like to meet other people who are doing similar work.
