Tent City Benefit with Phil Keaggy


Everyone is invited to a benefit for Tent City on Wednesday night at Otter Creek Church of Christ, 409 Franklin Road. There will be a reception for Tent City residents at 6pm, and then a concert by Phil Keaggy from 7 - 8:30. As a part of the evening as well, an art show of pictures taken of Tent City residents will be given to the Temple, a Jewish synagogue in Nashville, for display.

It will really be a great night and I hope as many of you as possible can be there.

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,

Phil
