I’ve seen this on a few other blogs….. so here’s mine.

You scored as Emergent/Postmodern.
You are Emergent/Postmodern in your theology.
You feel alienated from older forms of church,
you don’t think they connect to modern
culture very well. No one knows the whole
truth about God, and we have much to learn
from each other, and so learning takes place
in dialogue. Evangelism should take place in
relationships rather than through crusades
and altar-calls. People are interested in
spirituality and want to ask questions, so
the church should help them to do this.

If you haven’t taken a look at Patrick Mead’s Blog then stop what you’re doing and check it out. He always seems to have insightful, challenging and encouraging things to say. I know you will be blessed by his words.

Patrick Mead has a powerful post over at his blog. Here is one paragraph:

“The most worshipped God I know is the god in the mirror. We spend our money on him, our time on him, and want to make him happy and comfortable. Even in our worship we want to please that god that stared back at us as we shaved that morning. If something upsets us we act as if the True God was offended for… He would have to be offended if we were, right? Somehow we have bought into the idea that this life, this world, and this church are about us. And yet, God — remember God? — doesn’t act like that even though it really is all about Him! Instead, He stoops to conquer us with love. He gets on the floor with us even though — like those lovely little souls in St. John’s Villa and Sunshine Children’s Home — we have no real hope of getting much better. He feeds us, cares for us, showers us with rain and sunshine and, more than this, loves us deeply just because we exist.”

Check out the rest of it here (scroll down to the post for Monday, May 16th 2005). You will be blessed by it. By the way, if you haven’t read It’s Not About Me by Max Lucado, do yourself a favor and read it as soon as you can.

The Rolling Stones will be touring this year. You’ve got to admire them. When bands like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin couldn’t hold it together, the Stones just kept on going — putting out new music and touring. And it’s not like they haven’t had adversity. They’ve had band members leave, they’ve had band members die, one of them has had cancer, and there have been numerous scandals. But here they are, in 2005, with a new CD and a tour. Amazing. I hope to get to see them on this tour (I saw them back in 2002 and they were great).
