Sunday Conversation

Lara Arp led us in a great conversation about "Practice" and where it fit in our lives. We had several visitors who were treated, along with the rest of the congregation, to the "Return of Neeki". Looks like I'm going have to practice clapping and singing at the same time! =D Welcome back Neeki!

Tuesday Conversation: Fort Worth

Loren, Stephanie, Cara, Morton and I met at Panera and talked about Borg's "Practice" chapter.

Sunday Conversation

Cara and I are out of town, so I wasn't there to hear the conversation. I'll try to post a synopsis here later :)

PS There was no Adult Conversation

Tuesday Conversation: Fort Worth

Alan, Becky, Loren, Heidi, Morton and I met at Panera and a good old-fashioned discussion about Biblical authority, Adam, Eve, sin, Heaven, Hell, etc, etc, etc. I think in the end, a good time was had by all. :)

Open Heart, Closed Heart (Sunday Conversation)

Kyle did a great job of facilitating a conversation that centered around Borg's ideas of "open" and "closed" hearts and the "thin spaces" in between. Lots of great comments from all gathered. Paul led the music and treated us to a great solo of John Lennon's "Across the Universe".
