Tuesday Video

Hello everyone,

I mentioned on Monday we were going to have a video and discussion the next two Tuesdays (this past Tuesday and next). Many had said they wanted to come but obviously couldn't make it last night. We watched half of the video and had some fantastic discussion. We're watching the rest next week and I assume there will be even more powerful insight and broad discussion.

The video is an interview with three evangelical ministers who have very different takes on how Christianity engages with culture, specifically politics. Two of these ministers have been very influential for your minister. Greg Boyd and Shane Claiborne have written powerful books on this topic. The other interviewee is Chuck Colson, whose accomplishments are also impressive.

I'm posting the video below in this post so that if you wanted to come but couldn't, now you have the ability to catch up on what we saw. The video is well over an hour, so find a time to catch the whole thing. I'd encourage everyone to come next week and be a part of the larger discussion we'll be able to have.
