out of the country …
I'll be in San Jose Costa Rica with Kzona fellowship this weekend, then in a village called Fraijanes next week. I probably won't have much online access.
Here's a song I wrote recently. It's partly a creed, really, and partly a praise song. Let me know if you find it's useful. (You can leave a comment at youtube.) Most of the photos are from Africa.
If you're interested, you can get a CD of my music here (or download), and there are a number of other songs at my youtube channel, which is bmac2056. A friend and I are also working on getting a live recording online ... from the 90's, I think. Back when I had hair?

generational shift
I think many if not most of us felt it yesterday - that we are entering not just a new administration, but a new generation of leadership.
People are talking about "boomer" and "post-boomer" perspectives, and perhaps some will use the language of "modern" and "postmodern" too. A friend of mine in Europe said we should consider ourselves having moved from the 9/11 era to the 01/20 era. However we define the shift, President Obama embodies it, and today I'm thinking about a parallel shift that is taking place in many of our Christian communities. I'd like to explore the theological shift by making 8 connections with the President's Inaugural Address.

If you wanted to take in one event this spring …
I'd highly recommend you consider joining us in Albuquerque in March ... Fr. Richard Rohr, Phyllis Tickle, Alexia Torres-Fleming, Shane Claiborne, and I will be sharing at a historic gathering of Roman Catholics, Protestants, and others. We'll continue and expand the conversation about what is emerging, what God is doing, what we're all helping create at this critical time. Spread the word - we already have 250 registered, but there's still room for more. You can get all the information here ...
