props out to our buds

something very cool, we made the national council of churches "2006 Yearbook of American and Canadian Churches" and they cite two of the 21st century trends: blogging and the Emergent Church:

wfn.org | 2006 YEARBOOK SIDEBAR: the church and blogs: "Scores of EC proponents are using blogs to advance these ideas and stimulate dialogue. Lindner says it is not possible to generalize them into a predictable demographic class, but she offers examples of prominent EC bloggers: John O'Keefe, founder of www.ginkworld.net, 'an emerging/postmodern site exploring what it means to be a follower of Jesus in today's world;' Spencer Burke, former pastor, founder of http://theooze.com Web site, 'dedicated to the emerging Church culture;' Mark Driscoll, founder of Mars Hill Church (www.marshillchurch.org) in Seattle; Mark Pearson, founder of www.cityside.org.nz in Au[c]kland, New Zealand; and Karen Ward, founder and pastor of the Church of the Apostles, www.apostlechurch.org, in Seattle."

besides us, you can see our good bud spencer over at the ooze got props [thanks for the call to let me know about this spencer], so did our bud karen over at the church of the apostle [i love what she is doing in the kingdom] and so did our bud mark at mars hill [abrasive at times, but a great guy]. also, mark over at city side got props, i don't know him but look forward to doing so.
