The Wired Wanderings of a Postmodern Pilgrim
Posted in Its All About Me!, Leadership Resources on Feb 9th, 2008
Like I just mentioned, I am doing a seminar for Act 3 Ministries here in Chicago for my good friend, John Armstrong. Act 3 is a unique ministry that brings together mainliners and evangelicals for mutual conversation and mission – not always an easy thing to do – but John has the cred to do […]

Here is the much awaited, end of the year, what’s been happening podcast. I wanted to get one more in before 2008 rolled around. Here’s a farewell to 2007 and a better 2008. Click here to download podcast Pastor Links Surviving Hell – A great set of cds on how to survive stress and conflict […]

As many of you have noticed, Wired Jesus has been pretty quiet for almost two months. Simply put, the situation at the congregation I was pastoring here in Illinois became untenable and after conversations with my bishop and the congregation’s leaders, we agreed to end our relationship. So as of November 19, I have been […]

I have spent the day getting WordPress updated and I’m still doing some work to launch a new and renewed Wired Jesus in the next week or two. Over the summer I have been working to plan some changes and get some Mac training to be able to upgrade the website and do more both […]

Yes, at long last, an actual new podcast for the new year. While I give you an update on what’s been up in my life and how that has unfortunately sidetracked Wired Jesus way too much, I also reflect on Brad Stine and Godmen. In a nutshell, Godmen seems to be a postmodern version of […]

I was interviewed last week by Margaret Ramirez of The Chicago Tribune about the launch of our Nexus service using the U2 Eucharist. Well, its on the front page of the Sunday Tribune and it went out to 13 other papers in the Tribune family. Pretty awesome! I find it interesting that out of all […]

Well, I’m back from Florida and now deep in the final prep for our U2 Eucharist. Despite what you may have read via Reuters, the first live U2 Eucharist will not be in London in May but here in Chicago this Sunday. One thing that has struck me since the gathering and in being interviewed […]

Just thought I would say hello visually from Florida from my parent’s backyard. Considering all the snow that is covering the country the last few weeks, including back home in Chicago, I thought sharing the sunshine would be in order. Every year when I come down for the Creative Ministry Conference, I swing down to […]

Our denominational leadership asked me to do an article on podcasting to help pastors and church leaders better understand this “new” medium. I remember when I first proposed this article about a year ago, corporations weren’t interested and it was fairly wide open with all kinds of individuals going in every direction possible. But just […]

Its been a long time coming, almost two months but here’s a new Wired Jesus. It goes into where I’ve been and what I’ve been up to since this move as well as some personal insights into over-commitment. Sometimes we (meaning I 🙂 ) forget that rest is an important part of life and staying […]
