Traditionals, Moderns, And Cultural Creatives
The following quote got my attention: “In virtuality, the 10% creative core no longer needs permission from 1% structural gatekeepers.” Do the creative elements in our churches feel constrained by the “structural gatekeepers?”

Is Evangelical Liturgy Like “Jumbo Shrimp”?
Helpful thoughts on how a prelude can help focus the congregation into “worship mode.” The big question: where do you put the announcements?

For [seminary] Nerds, By Nerds
The only thing more difficult than learning an ancient language is retaining an ancient language. Helps like these seem to strike the right balance between helping and hurting. You don’t want too much information or you’ll just use that as a crutch. But having no vocabulary/grammatical leaves you (at least, me) frustrated. If you’re good little boys and girls, I may just post a similar site for Greek.

Because It’s All About ME!
I have a running quasi-debate with a family member about whether Facebook promotes a false sense of community. The greater danger may be that it actually does the opposite of promoting any kind of community at all. Narcissism and community, in my experience, don’t mix very well. And if you need to see whether you are narcissistic or not, take the test.

  1. How’s about: “reThought” or “reRead”. If you’ve got a brand, make it work for you.

    or The Growler (hear what others are growling about)
    jd

  17. For a comment on one of the links, I’m convinced that Facebook helps to foster connections, but not true community. With community you have emotional and relational reciprocity. With connections, it’s typicall all just one-way

  18. Stephen McAlpin says:

    ReConnect (links)

  19. James Tavernier says:

    ReSync

  20. Greg Sullivan says:

    “I Won the T-Shirt”

    More Hebrew, please

  22. Just going back through these right now and laughing out loud to myself over
    “Chronicles of Linknia.” (The Cronic[What?!]cles of Narnia.)

    I’m so close to going with “The Mother Linker.”

  23. Jared, we decided to go with your title, “The Post Where We Link to Stuff You May or May Not Find Interesting and/or Amusing?” as our subtitle.

    Actually it was Seminary Nerd’s preference.

    Because you’ve already got a shirt, I’m sending one to Roger Moran in your honor tomorrow.
