The New Christians

From Harpers Magazine, 2005:

Last summer, Marcus Goodyear interviewed me for The High Calling, an online magazine of Laity Lodge in Texas.  (In fact, I can remember exactly where I was: sitting next to Michael Toy‘s pool during a day off from the Church Basement Roadshow.)  Marcus posted Part One of the interview last week.  Money quote: At TheHighCalling.org,…

Adam Walker-Cleaveland’s posts have lessened in both frequency and profundity since he graduated from Princeton Seminary and entered the workaday world of church ministry.  But occasionally he drops a gem that reminds us of why Pomomusings charted the course for emergent movement blogs.  He posted on friendship in the internet world on Monday.  Money quote:…

Thanks to David Crumm for the heads-up that most PBS stations will this weekend show Soul Searching: The Journey of Thomas Merton.  Today, Crumm interviews the filmmaker, Morgan Atkinson at Read the Spirit.  Money Q&A: DAVID: People talk about The Seven Storey Mountain as a runaway bestseller, but I don’t think people will get a…
