Hi, folks. I’ve been thinking it’s time to get together. What do y’all think? I’d also like to invite other folks from around town.

Here are a bunch of options for getting together. I’d love some feedback on them.

Two & Three

One thing we’re committed to with the Radical Love Project is the practice of deep empathy (loving your neighbor as yourself), listening to each other, exploring together how God is working in us and in the world. We get together on Tuesday evenings at 7, and you are all invited.

We haven’t settled on a location, so get in touch if you’d like to come.

Movies

I have three movies on my desk:

• The Gods Aren’t Angry is one of Rob Bell’s tour movies. In it, he talks about where we get our ideas about God, and how we can see God as loving.
• Everything is Spritual, another of Rob Bell’s movies. In this one, he’s talking about what the universe is really like, and how God’s presence is everywhere.
• Ordinary Radicals: A conspiracy of faith on the margins of empire is about Shane Claibourne, Tony Campolo and others who call themselves “Red Letter Christians” and are working to live out Jesus’ vision with a radical politics of love.

There are lots more available, including One punk under God with Jay Bakker, and lots of short Nooma videos as well.

I am not sure where to host a movie night, but it could be fun… maybe Cozmic Pizza? I hear they have a projector. (A place where food is purchased gives us an opportunity to be creative in how we come together as Christians around food and hunger.)

But the question is, is anybody interested? Which movie? (Or do you have another you like?)

Dinner in the park

Of course, there are park nights. You are all very welcome to come and join us. We just get together and spend time with folks we might not encounter otherwise. We bring socks and food, but mostly it’s about our loving attention. (Which is good, because some weeks all we can come up with is peanut butter and jelly!)
