What is Communion for?
So this summer has been cruising along at a hellish blast out here in philly at BSM. I have found myself quite comfortable in this funky church. The people who work here all care deeply about what it means to live and be a church in Philly, and it definitely shows–in the friendliness of those…

GA 2008
Just a Note: Watching most of the moderator candidates tonight was not only boring as hell, but completely disheartening. Yes, I know these people care about the church, and yes I know they care about God, but I certainly wish I heard a bit more about Jesus and a bit more about service and care…

moving.
It’s d-day…. A and I are moving to Philadelphia. We spent the last few days packing up his apartment (I had packed my stuff a couple weeks ago), keeping and getting rid of various things, especially recycling paper that had been in A’s possession for far too long.
