Highlight(s) of the week: (1) Amanda and I took Giselle to get her pics with Santa (because we’re pagans like that). (2) We also had a chance to go to Longwood Gardens with our friends, Ron and Juli. (3) 3 semesters of my MDiv have been completed. 3 to go!

Book(s) I’m reading: Most interestingly, The Great Emergence: How Christianity Is Changing and Why by Phyllis Tickle.
Blog posts to check out:
  1. Tim’s post on “You Can’t Ruin Christmas,” which is a reminder to focus on the right things about Christmas (but with a twist).
  2. Sojourner’s wonderful Advent article (reminder?) on the myth of redemptive violence in the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still
  3. Peter Rollins’ post called “The Rapture,” reminding Christians that God really cares about the earth and the people who attach themselves to it
  4. Adam WC’s post on homosexuality called “The Bible & Homosexuality: Enough with the Bible Already,” which I disagreed with, but I think it’s worth considering.

iPhone app I’m happy about: (1) “Open Table,” which allows you to make restaurant reservations from your phone (as long as the restaurant is registered with Open Table). (2) Have you ever wanted to try a new beer and didn’t know what to get or maybe what one was like? Then, “Beer Brands” is for you! It has listings of hundreds (thousands?) of beers.

Something(s) that blew my mind: (1) What Eagles am I watching on TV?

Had a good laugh at:

Job update: still working at Calvary, but still looking. Had an interview for a youth pastor position and waiting to hear back.

Seminary update: 3 semesters done, 3 to go!

Looking forward to: (1) Continuing to observe Advent through candles and fasting. (2) Christmas! (3) Getting together with Todd tomorrow
