Wanderings and Wonderings: September 2007
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 30, 2007. Last Thursday one of my friends hosted a dinner with his out of town friend- -Stu, a claimed prophet. I came in with little expectations and left probably feeling all things from surprise, healing, and skepticism. I believe he opened with "what if I told you you never have to be stressed again? Besides speaking to some individuals he also talked alot about how God doesn't always have to work within a church building- he had many beliefs and lists about the components of true, ...

Wanderings and Wonderings: October 2007
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 28, 2007. Jim Meets Leadership Theory. The character "Jim" from the Office: who is he? How does he fit in with Leadership models and culture, where are Christian fellowships missing students like him? OK So in August a fellow InterVarsity staff said that many students now want to be like the character Jim from the office- Jim isn't the boss, he doesn't make too many waves, he's an opinion leader and a generally funny and likeable guy. However is Jim a leader? The character of Jim represen...

Wanderings and Wonderings: December 2007
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 28, 2007. In earlier posts I've said that I've actually found two churches in DC- I split my time between two congregations- an gospel-style Catholic congregation in Anacostia and a non-denominational, contemporary congregation that meets in movie theaters near Georgetown University. While this is true- when I'm back in Southlake at White's Chapel I'm struck with how not "mine" these churches- and the church I went to in college was. But really my job effects my choice in church in more ...

Wanderings and Wonderings: February 2008
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 14, 2008. Thrill of the Chaste. So as with most of my writing, I document themes in my life. I believe God puts a lot of things together in my life- -all point towards the same genre, idea, or theme for two reasons. One, I get a very interdisciplinary, diverse education on any given topic- quite liberal arts of the Lord! Two, to get a point home- after hearing similar messages for weeks, I start to pay attention and learn something. So all of these things came together, thinking about ...

Wanderings and Wonderings: Seek the Welfare of the city i've sent you to
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2008/07/seek-welfare-of-city-ive-sent-you-to.html
Monday, July 21, 2008. Seek the Welfare of the city i've sent you to. I awoke last night to the sound of jack hammers and road crew equipment. It was about 2AM. I sat for almost 30 minutes wondering-I wanted to call and complain to someone and say seriously, who does that kind of roadwork on a residential street in the middle of the night? Would/could they even stop the construction? How do you decide what's a battle worth fighting for? At the end of this summer we're challenging students to consider mak...

Wanderings and Wonderings: November 2007
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 26, 2007. While visiting Philadelphia, I visited this church Circle of Hope. http:/ www.circleofhope.net/blog/. I'd heard of the church through New Monastic connections- it's a church many of the "simples" in the philadelphia area attend and a favorite in "Emergent" church circles as well. Definitely an interesting, alternative service. Besides that though it gave the guise of a regular contemporary-type service that- sometimes painstakingly attempts to do. This was referencing the Myer'...

Wanderings and Wonderings: City Friends
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2008/05/i-think-if-my-life-had-soundtrack-best.html
Saturday, May 31, 2008. I think if my life had a soundtrack, the best times of my life would be set to John Mayer's Room for Squares or classic James Taylor. When I say the best times of life- I don't necessarily mean those trial-by-fire or challenging best times of life. I mean more the generic "best times" of life where I am genuinely content and satisfied. I might as well smile.). We met so many people! An artist who lives in his studio inside the old Sears building (http:/ southsideonlamar.com/) ...

Wanderings and Wonderings: March 2008
http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 31, 2008. A couple of weeks ago back visiting my old InterVarsity chapter at WM, I heard they'd done a survey of the fellowship. They found that only 5% of the students present at the weekly Large Group meeting were spending more than 10 minutes 3 times a week in prayer and Bible study. Sunday, March 23, 2008. Stations of the Cross around Anacostia. There are 14 "stations" of the cross. The whole event lasted 3 hours! EGGstravaganza: alternative easter break 2008. Being a Catholic school, G...

http://wanderings-and-wonderings.blogspot.com/2008/08/21-days-in-darnall-day-2.html
Monday, August 25, 2008. 21 days in Darnall: Day 2. Today we attended the Protestant Student opening service where there's a chance to meet new students who are looking for Christian Fellowship. We met two girls and a guy from Darnall hall who were interested in a Bible study. Beyond that, found some facebook pages online listing different students living in the dorms! Pray for opportunities to make contact with more students! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Support the ministry financially.
