I want to thank all of you (over 100 so far) who have asked me to continue blogging even though I lost my job with the General Board of Discipleship in Nashville.  I figured my blog would simply fade into the shifting sands of history, but I have received an almost constant flow of emails and calls asking me to continue on my own.

Okay, you asked for it.  I will continue my Monday/Thursday posting schedule to examine trends, practices, popular misconceptions, disturbingly weird issues, and cultural shifts that affect the Christian church in the U.S. — specifically The United Methodist Church.

So, spread the word: I’m back and glad to be here.
