« Previous Entries Sunday, February 10th, 2008Defining and Defending the Blog
This past week fellow Daily Scribe blogger Nick Norelli asked the following questions on his blog - “Is a blog a blog if it doesn’t allow comments? And if it is then is it a blog worth reading?” My initial response was to answer “no” to both questions. Something may perhaps fit the technical […]
Monday, January 21st, 2008Book Review - Rising from the Ashes
I recently finished reading Becky Garrison’s new book Rising from the Ashes: Rethinking Church (we have also been discussing this book over at Emerging Women for this month’s book discussion). This book is different from the typical offering on this subject in that it consists solely of interviews Becky conducted with a wide […]
Sunday, October 14th, 2007Podcast
If anyone is interested, I am on the latest Nick & Josh Podcast. I haven’t listened to the finished version yet, but I think (hope) I was vaguely coherent for it. I talk mostly about Emerging Women and some of the issues women face in entering into the whole emerging church conversation. […]
Thursday, August 30th, 2007Priestess Clawson Responds
And now for today’s entertainment… The anti-emergent mafia strikes again granting me a place of honor (dubious though it may be). Over at the fairly new diatribe of hate entitled Wonky73 - A Crazy Man’s Utopia (I am so not kidding) the author lists offenders guilty of “emergy oozy chaos.” After reading the […]
Sunday, August 12th, 2007Women in the Emerging Church
To clarify my post below and to address (some of) Brother Maynard’s good questions (since this is way too long to post in the comments). Yes, the last post was a rant and therefore did make use of hyperbole. I know that there are men in the EC who do support women (and […]
Friday, August 10th, 2007To the Men of the Emerging Church
So after reading Dave Fitch’s article on why he isn’t an egalitarian over at the Church and Postmodern Culture blog (and then Makeesha’s great response), I am just left wondering what the deal is really with men in the Emerging Church. So you get these high profile men writing stuff that equality isn’t biblical […]
Saturday, June 23rd, 2007My Blog Turns 2!
So my blog officially turns two today. I know that in the grand scheme of the blogworld that isn’t very old, but its been quite a journey for me. I think the process started a little over two years ago when I attended the 2005 Emergent Gathering in Nashville. We had […]
Monday, June 4th, 2007Faith in a Dress
So I’ve posted about this over at Emerging Women, but I’ll post something here too. Pam Hogeweide and Erin Word are the guest editors for the June issue of the Porpoise Diving Life e-zine (”Picking Up Where Purpose-Driven Peters Out”). This issue is called Progress: Faith in a Dress and is devoted “to […]
Saturday, April 14th, 2007Colossians Remixed 1
Over at the Emerging Women blog, I am hosting this month’s book discussion on Colossians Remixed by Brian Walsh and Sylvia Keesmaat. I read this book about a year ago. At the time it was the first “deeper” book I had read after a year and a half of “mommy brain” syndrome. […]
Monday, January 29th, 2007NW Emerging Women Gathering
I returned home last night from the NW Emerging Women Gathering outside of Portland, OR. It was a refreshing experience of connecting with some amazing women. I got to see some old and new friends again and meet some more. The gathering was helpd at the Edgefield Manor which is this […]
Monday, January 22nd, 2007Sexism once again…
(cross posted at Emerging Women)
So the discrimination against women continues. I got online this morning and read this post over at Scot McKnight’s blog Jesus Creed regarding the removal of a female seminary professor by a new administration because she was female. Read the news brief here. Since reading it, I have been […]
