Rob Bell

is “on tour.” which sounds a little bit weird. I mean the “on tour” part – just because it’s not like he plays killer riffs or something. But I could be okay with it. Logan Square Auditorium in Chicago on the 30th of June. They’re calling it the Everything is Spiritual tour, which, for a title, sounds like a good start.

Rob has been something of a thought mentor for me for several years – mainly through his audio from his church Mars Hills, his DVD shorts called “Nooma“s and then a time that I got to latch on to a chance Ty got to go hang out with him for a period of two days in Michigan. Ty and I got to watch him speak, eat dinner with his family, and talk to him about how he forms his stories – his narratives about the Real. It was enough to make him a minor hero of mine – someone I want to be more like.

Anyway, he’s on tour.

mother’s day extends

Chris Ridgeway | 15 May 2006 | 08:43

And now for a short announcement:

Her children have made extended Quest across the land to find nothing less than the Right One, but have now pronounced it good, and with great amounts of unnecessary fanfare do indicate that The Mother Unit now owns one of These:


…for listening-to-mp3s-and-podcasts-and- all-those-tv-preachers in a variety of new and exciting settings: while-reclining, while-walking/stalking-the-neighborhood, while-secretly-feeding-cats-at-the-back-door- without-the-father-unit-noticing, even while-driving (Safety First). The USB cable and iTunes 6.1 software should be no problem for this Kim K Disciple, and we wouldn’t be surprised if she develops a new insatiable shining to hip-hop.

well, maybe we would.

It hardly sums up our real gratitude towards our Mom, but this year it was how we wanted to say:

Happy Mother’s Day.

love,
Chris and Erika

Whoa, a party for me and Ashley. Glow sticks, magic markers, and three of my friends as scheming masterminds, behind it all.

huh.

I got a cool white tie out of the deal :)

About Me

Chris Ridgeway

Retro-identity idea: define yourself by magazines. Me? Wired. Paste. Atlantic Monthly. Discipleship Journal. Or this: For ten years I've worked as a leadership coach, spiritual director, and free agent missionary with Great Commission Ministries on its mission to reach the next generation--I currently serve as the national Staff Program Manager for GCM, helping train and equip church planters, campus missionaries , and other missional leaders. My area of curiosity is the impact of an information society on Christian theology, especially a doctrine of scripture. Does text messaging modify our view of the Trinity? Oh yeah, and I'm inexcusably addicted to breakfast diners. New home base: Orlando, FL. Home home: Chicago-ish.
