    [/caption]Last week, my friend Todd Littleton posted a quote from Carl Raschke’s book Next Reformation, The: Why Evangelicals Must Embrace Postmodernity. In the comments that followed, people were interested in discussing the book more. I suggested a book discussion forum that could discuss the book, other books, and postmodern culture.

    Global Christianity

    Ready for a book discussion?

    I ran across this post this morning and thought it was interesting. The author sets out to “compare 4 nations when it came to religious attitudes, the United States, Sweden, South Korea and Japan. The United States because most readers are American. Sweden because it is the apotheosis of European secularity. Japan because it is generally presumed to be an apathetic non-Western nation when it comes to religion.

    The folks at problogger.net have put together a 31 Days to Build a Better Blog challenge. They are giving advise on how to improve your blog. In the process of participating in this challenge, I’ve decided to re-brand the blog. For the last year or so it has simply been the blog of W. David Phillips. But I want to tighten the focus a bit and be more intentional about its focus.

She, along with my denominational tribe were planning an event to train leaders in Sunday School in our state as part of a big event that will be happening over the next couple of years.

    Journeying Into Faith

    Let's All Go to Sunday School!

    Reading through books of Moses (Genesis to Deuteronomy), we see how God led the people of Israel on their journey into the Promise Land. That journey mirrors much of our journey into faith. It is a journey into the depths of a relationship with God. In this post, I want to examine how God guided the nation, how they followed, and how that carries over into the journey God has in store for us.
