The New Format
Epinoia Café is just over a year old now. I think that nearly everyone who has participated in Epinoia in its first year has gained something from it. Most of us have spent time re-evaluating our spiritual lives with the guidance and support of this small network of friends. Within days of Epinoia’s birth it [...]
Upcoming Format Changes
At some point in the next week or two I’m going to do a little experiment. I’m going to completely change up the format of Epinoia Cafe. It will be sudden, and it will be drastic. It’s possible you won’t like it. But, on the other hand it could be a breath of fresh air [...]
More stories, on tradition and innovation
When one news agency is on to something, it’s not long before the others pick up on it. First Time ran the story on Rob Bell, that I posted a few days ago. Now, it’s U.S. News & World Report with a cover story on “A Return to Tradition.” The story does a general survey [...]

Tickets are $15.
Dualism: Enemy of the Faith?
The Ongoing Adventures of ASBO Jesus, a website that I subscribe to has been running a series over the last couple of days that’s really hit home with me. I thought I’d share.
Thoughts?
Where Do We Go From Here?
I’ve got a few questions on what we’re doing here on Epinoia and where we as a group would like to see it go. I’ve got some grand visioning that I’ve put on the back-burner all summer, but it’s time to turn the heat up on some of the things we’ve discussed in the past, [...]
One More Thing Before I Go
More food for thought…
“Postmoderns have had it with religion. They’re sick and tired of religion. They’re convinced the world needs less of religion, not more. They want no part of obedience to sets of propositions and rules required by some “officialdom” somewhere. Postmoderns want participation in a deeply personal but at the same time communal [...]
