This weekend's conversation was amazing. Tripp and I will have the podcasts up very soon. They will be on The Greensboro Abbey's site. Look for them in the "Abbey Sounds" section.
I had a great time with you all. I just e-mailed Anthony Smith with this idea and I want to pitch it to you all here. I really would like to see the cohorts from Charlotte, Raleigh, and The Triad get together maybe once a year. I propose...for discussion, that we look at gathering at the Franciscan Prayer Center in Stoneville, NC in the fall. It is just north of Greensboro, so it will not be a long trek for anyone coming from the surrounding cohorts. I know the rector there. Plus it is beautiful new facility. You will fall in love with the place...I promise. Let's have some serious conversation on this.
I think we did some good tilling and seeding this weekend. I want to make sure we water, fertilize, and tend. I believe Emergent folk are attempting to embrace God's present future that is becoming from ancient roots rather than fighting to maintain a sentimental religious memory. That motivates and excites me on a daily basis. I hope it does you as well.

Word Up
I like the idea of a Carolina cohort gathering. I say Carolina because I think it'd be great to include SC folks, as well.
Let's talk about dates and costs and get something on the calendar!
Steve,
I like where your heads at! I'll check on some dates, get a price tag, and try to get that out this week.
