Why am I writing a blog? The simple answer is to invite conversation with my worshiping community. I am the pastor of University United Methodist Church in College Park, MD, and I have found the oneway communication of sermon very frustrating. No doubt, they may too! So, although I am quite nervous about blogging, my desire for a larger venue of conversation compels me to embark on this journey.
My hope and my prayer is that we find new ways of sharing what is important to us. John Wesley, the primary founder of Methodism, spoke of holy conversation, conversation where our deepest longings are shared. Maybe it is a bit too much to see that occurring in a blog, but who knows!
Let the adventure begin.
