- Christian Scholars' Conference
As an addendum to Phil's post below about the Tokens Radio show, the Christian Scholars' Conference is taking place the next three days on the campus of Lipscomb University. In addition to the 71 paper and panel sessions, there are four main sessions, featuring plenary speakers Billy Collins (US Poet Laureate, 2001-2003), Marilynne Robinson (Pulitzer Prize Winner, 2005), Hubert G. Locke, and Barbara Brown Taylor. Those sessions are free and open to the public, and will doubtless be well worth your time. Times and additional details can be found here. - Tokens Show
Hi all.
I just wanted to remind you of the Tokens Show this Thursday at 7:30pm at Lipscomb University: Stories We Live By. This one features Ron Block of Union Station, Sandra McCracken, Buddy Greene, and interviews with Barbara Brown Taylor and Hubert Locke.
Tickets are available here: http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/1B004259811E2FFF
I highly recommend it. It'll be one of the most fun and thought-provoking times you've had in a while.
Peace,

Taylor Burton Edwards recently wrote a really great article on the phenomenon of using Twitter as part of a worship service. He has some really great insights to share.

Tony Jones spoke to my Sunday School class at St. Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral in Memphis immediately after the Great Emergence Event here in December. I had never heard of the E movement before that, but I just finished Tony’s New Christians and I want to experience this first-hand. Had I known what was going on at MY OWN CHURCH the 1st week in December(despite the fact that I personally entered the event on the Cathedral Web site, which I maintain) I would have taken vacation time to attend the whole thing. My problem now is that Google searching for “emergent” anything and “Memphis” yields dozens of hits about the Event. Signal-to-noise effect keeps me from finding a local group. No cohort. Maybe a house-church? I promise I’m not a spy for Bellevue Baptist! I was baptized there, but like in The Matrix, I managed to remove the bug implant.
