Where We'll Be This Sunday

Tuesday, January 15, 2008

First of all, thank you to Cait from East Baptist Church for inviting me and welcoming me and sitting with me and guiding me through the service. And thank you to Pastor Kevin Adams. And a belated thank you to the people over at the Quaker Meetinghouse, you were all kinda blindsided by our appearance...but you rolled with it.



So, I bid you welcome. Since this is the inaugural post, and since this project is still in it's infancy...just a weensy little baby of a project...I'll begin by telling you a bit about why I sent you the link to this blog. For the next 50 weeks (two have passed already) I am accepting invitations to other people's churches. The other day at the East Baptist Church, a man asked me why? What am I trying to reason out here? I thought about it for a moment and realized, I don't really have a thesis. I'm not out to debunk anyone's faith. I'm not out to prove anything. I don't want to promote religion...I guess I just want to find a common thread. There are many roads that arrive at the same place -I want to travel down them. I want to see what you see, I want to feel what you feel. I want to cut behind the mystery. (Little Robbie Robertson reference, in case you didn't notice) And I want to write a book about it. So, let's go, shall we?
