Happy New Year Music
My first podcast for the new year is going to be on the state of Christian music, which I think is something of a misnomer. Often people will slap the label Christian on some product to draw the devout consumer when the reality is that its a product that would be considered second rate in the large …

Merry Christmas
Okay, I didnt get a podcast done before Christmas but let me share this with all of you who have stuck by Wired Jesus over the past year. Visual media and worship is kind of my thing and recently I did a study for a local group of pastors on preaching on Christmas. If any of you pastor people woul …

Thought Of the Year
I found this while cruising for images on Google on the blog My beloved monster and me A journey through life with MS as your companion. Thought of the Year There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for, and why it is here, it will instantly dissapear …

Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown
Its been a while since I posted on the blog or a podcast. I think I need to get in the habit of my friend, John Armstrong, at ACT 3, and do a morning of nothing but recording podcasts and then post them over several weeks. Might be a fun Christmas project. So, do not give up up, the fight against …

99 Balloons
Yesterday my wife asked me if I had seen 99 Balloons on YouTube yet. I said no, but I saw it on MTV years ago in German. Turns out she was not talking about Nena and 99 Luftballoons but rather something she had seen on Oprah. I have to be honest. Im not an Oprah fan. But Carla said I had to watch …

Moved InÂ… Kinda
The moving truck arrived, the boxes are all in the same house, I had a good first day in the office with the staff, so life is good. Im not sure I will get a podcast off this weekend - I preach and Carla wants me to do something about all the boxes around the house and in the garage. But next weeke …

The Apocalypse Is Coming
Okay, I have seen the signs. Civilization is ending as we know it. Not because of AIG and the subprime crisis. Not because of the Russian invasion of Georgia. Not because of the mideast conflicts. The divine sign of judgment is the episode of Design Star that my wife just turned on where these as …

Nothing To Do With Anything

Print Is Dead?
Chicago is buzzing over the abrupt announcement by controversial sportswriter Jay Marriotti that he is leaving the Chicago Sun-Times because the newspaper business is dead and doesnt want to go down with the ship. While there is a little more to the whole thing, I think his observation of the Olymp …

Wired Jesus Podcast #44 - Shacking Up With God
After much waiting, heres a new podcast and its a review of the bestseller The Shack. If you havent come across it yet, it more than just a sentimental devotional book - The Shack has some real content that makes the very confusing doctrine of the Trinity come alive in a real relationship. Sounds …

Interesting New Book on Faith
David Yonke, the Religion Editor for the Toledo Blade, has an interesting eye for stories as I found when I used to live in NW Ohio. His latest story is about Joe Eszterhas new book, a different direction than his best seller Basic Instinct. Joe Eszterhas latest book is a shocker, but not the kind …

Great Video Via Rev. Dan at Outchurched Blog
If you havent found Outchurched blog and my fellow podcaster/Facebook friend, Rev. Dan Tripp, check it out. Rev. Dan is a Universalist with a very edgy sense of humor that I appreciate but might easily offend more gentle listeners (Be warned - not safe for kids). That being said, he recently pos …

What, No Podcast?
Okay, the podcast is written but things have been absolutely nuts with getting my oldest ready to start his freshman year in college. So, I may get it done today but probably wont have the editing done until Monday. More to come. Hang in there.

The Life of Stick Figures
Okay, this has nothing to do with the journey of faith, other than you need to keep a sense of humor and enjoy a good laugh now and then. So, during this time of political campaigning and unbridled charting, here is some data you can really use.

The Shack
I recently finished The Shack by William Young. A viral best seller, I would describe it as the heart of Mitch Albon (Five People You Will Meet in Heaven) and the offbeat, relational faith of Don Miller (Blue Like Jazz) with a Christian core that would make sense to an Greek Orthodox Christian. We …
