Acrobat: February 2009
http://tcraig.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
And I must be an acrobat, to talk like this and act like that.". Wednesday, February 18, 2009. Communication Lessons from the 2009 Election. As I watched the election last year I couldn't help but notice a huge disparity between the practices of the Obama campaign and the McCain campaign. I have read a book called Tribes by Seth Godin. 1 Message- The Obama campaign found a central message of hope and transformation that captured the hearts of its supporters. The McCain campaign never found a message.

And I must be an acrobat, to talk like this and act like that.". Monday, March 23, 2009. The Future of the UMC. Here is a pretty good article on the future of the Methodist Church. While I think my tolerance for the bureaucracy. Of the denomination is not as high as the author's I think he makes some good arguments. Http:/ www.genxrising.com/2009/03/denomination-in-dock.html. And whenever anyone challenges it/them they are written off as 'jumping ship' or 'not a team player'? View my complete profile.

Acrobat: April 2007

And I must be an acrobat, to talk like this and act like that.". Tuesday, April 24, 2007. Have to admit that this year of AI has been what I had always expected it to be! I wonder if this year is actually the norm and the last couple of seasons have just been good despite the voting public! This year, of course, has reflected the incredible taste of the general public (whoever said groupthink is always good should pay attention to this years AI). As Dwight would say, "Unshun!

And I must be an acrobat, to talk like this and act like that.". Wednesday, April 15, 2009. But, redemption seems to be a dead end at this point. I can't get my head around there being any hope for deliverance. Those who had been lost returned home only to find out that home wasn't what they were looking for. So, now they have returned back to the island. So, if home isn't deliverance then what is? If redemption is found on the island, then what does that mean for the "others"? A TV show :) . However...

Acrobat: ID Part 1
http://tcraig.blogspot.com/2009/03/id-part-1.html
And I must be an acrobat, to talk like this and act like that.". Tuesday, March 31, 2009. Paul's letter to the Colossians is one of my favorite letters found in the New Testament. This letter is underappreciated in my opinion. For me, this letter addresses some of the toughest challenges we have as Christians in our western culture. The letter addresses gnosticism (been around forever, but repackaged recently as The Secret), our identity (why don't we talk about this in the church? And religion as idol.

Acrobat: Commentary vs. "What Am I Going To Do About It?"
http://tcraig.blogspot.com/2009/03/commentary-vs-what-am-i-going-to-do.html
And I must be an acrobat, to talk like this and act like that.". Saturday, March 14, 2009. Commentary vs. "What Am I Going To Do About It? So, there have been a couple of posts that I have thought about writing the last couple of weeks. One about my thoughts on the recent secession. Here is the thing, though. Why?

As I reflected on these things I wrote the following:. It’s Easter Sunday and I am living in the grace offered by Jesus. But, Monday is coming and I will judge myself based on my ability to adhere to a list of rules. It’s Easter Sunday and I live with immense hope. But, Monday is coming and I will live a defeated life. It’s Easter Sunday and...
