Calling all ReKnew friends in D.C.!

A member of our board (Joel Pilger) is developing a video for ReKnew and he needs some volunteers this Saturday. Here’s what he had to say:

I’ll be shooting in DC this Saturday morning. I need a few ReKnew fans and/or supporters that would be willing to appear on camera holding up Manifesto statements.
 
Who am I looking for specifically? CHARACTERS!  Meaning, people that stand out visually / are not generic. For example, just imagine something like:
  • An older black couple standing on the steps of the Capitol, holding up signs:
    • “DON’T CONFUSE THE KINGDOM OF GOD”
    • “WITH THE KINGDOM OF THE WORLD”
  • Several skateboarders standing in front of a picket line of angry protesters, holding up signs:
    • “GET YOUR LIFE FROM CHRIST”
    • “NOT FROM THE RIGHTNESS OF YOUR BELIEFS”
These are just examples. I’m open to suggestions / alternatives / ideas.
If you’re willing to help Joel out you can contact him via Facebook or Twitter here:

Our goal is to post content to the site at least three or four times a week, with two of these posts (on average) being fresh content from me addressing particular theological topics. The other posts will be things such as videos, quotes of the day, featured articles from elsewhere on the web questions from readers, and so on.

Before I begin unpacking ReKnew’s theological vision in subsequent posts, however, today I want to offer four preliminary words about the theological convictions I’ll be espousing.

I guess Greg’s editor doesn’t follow his instructions very well.  :) Greg is a great theologian and apologist but he’s not the most brilliant when it comes to technology.

A ReKnew Manifesto

As our curious name indicates, ReKnew exists to encourage believers and skeptics alike to re-think things they thought they already knew. We want to promote a beautiful, Jesus-looking vision of God and his kingdom. We want to promote a host of related theological convictions that we believe were compromised or lost in traditional Christianity—especially since…

J L via Compfight We don’t usually do this, but Jessica Kelley (Henry’s mom) over at Jess in Process wrote a piece about her struggles with doubt, and we got her permission to reprint it in its entirety.
