Friday blog roundup, May 30: going green, Sex in the City, book signings, oh my!
Here’s your weekly roundup of noteworthy blog posts from around the Gospel.com community. Lots of good stuff here this week:
- Jonalyn Fincher (of the Soulation apologetics ministry) muses about the claim that “if churches cater to men, then the women and children will follow.” Is it true that churches can win over entire families by focusing on the “man of the house”?
- The Internet Ministry Conference blog reminds us that the deadline for early bird conference registration is coming up soon—June 3. Complete with an amusing video to help make the point!
- Over at The Culture Beat, Jim Dahlman talks about “going green” as part of faith. Is eco-friendly living an aspect of the Christian call to stewardship? And don’t miss Alex Wainer’s reflections on the latest Indiana Jones movie.
- Jim Watkins takes issue with the premise of Sex and the City, and provides some useful data about cohabitation and sexual activity before marriage. (If only the filmmakers had employed Jim as a movie consultant during filming!)
- ThinkChristian wants to know: how far do you live from your church? Take the poll and share your thoughts!
- The Outflow blog asks whether or not the church is filled with passionate Christians. People got outrageously excited when World of Warcraft hit local Best Buy shelves—do you see the same level of excitement about the infinitely more important Gospel message in the church today?
- Dave Zimmerman writes about a supremely hot summer day, and what he learned from it, over at Strangely Dim.
- What’s it like to sit on the other side of the author table at a book signing? Lisa Rieck shares an author’s perspective over at IVPress’ Behind the Books blog.
That’s all for this week. See you Monday!
