And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt. - Sylvia Plath

ebay atheist
I saw this on the emerging lives community blog and thought it was interesting...
"An atheist, Mr. Hemant Mehta, started an unusual auction on eBay. Up for bid? Mehta's attendance at a Chicagoland church of the highest bidder's choice. Off the Map was the winner and they've asked Mehta to attend a number of local churches and report back on what, from an atheist's standpoint, the hits and misses were at each. He was at Willowcreek last night. Go here to track the eBay Atheist blog."

I loved the link. I found it so intriguing. I thought you guys might be exctied to know that your new church was mentioned on the site. Perhaps you already knew.
"Wouldn’t it be more useful to send Hemant to a wider variety of churches? Why not send him to an emerging church likeSojourn, or a social justice oriented intentional community likeReba Place, or uniquely ethnic Catholic church like St. Sabina, or to a brand new church plant like Via Christus, or a mainline liberal church, or a pentecostal church, or a traditional Baptist Church, etc."
Pretty exciting!

Wow.
That was an engrossing read and for the most part not too embarrassing either.
