Tokens Show

Hi all. A brief plug, reposted from my blog.

Last December, Sheryl and I got to go out and see the Tokens Show at Lipscomb University, directed by Lee Camp, of whom I've spoken fondly before. We really had a great time at this Prairie Home Companion meets theology discussion. Here are a couple of videos from it, and one from a previous show.

Joy To the World


Closing Monologue: Silent Night


Class and Grass


Tuesday, March 3, at 7pm, is the next Tokens Show, and it will feature will feature musicians Vince Gill, Sonya Isaacs, Odessa Settles, and Buddy Greene; interviews with Will Campbell (author of Brother to a Dragonfly) and Brad MacLean (on his work on death-row), and much more. Sheryl and I had an absolute blast at it and if you're in the Nashville area and can make it, I can almost guarantee that you won't be disappointed.

What Are You Wondering This Month

Greetings everyone,
The Nashville Cohort reconvenes this Thursday, November 6 from 11:30-1:00pm at the Flying Saucer in the Pool Room:
11 10th Ave. South
(Located Behind Union Station)
Nashville, TN 37203

This month we're spending time exploring the things we are all "wondering" right now in our lives with God. Our experience of Jesus following in Nashville's culture is unique and often produces interesting revelations and reflections. These are the sessions where we honor that process and share our considerations.

Come with some of your freshest wondering and we'll spend out time discussing that, or anything else that tickles our fancy this Thursday.
