The Anti-Manichaeist

I am glad to be able to point to Bart Campolo’s new and improved blog and how he’s blogging about his ministry, as a pomo revivalist, roviding his own interpretation to the revivalist spirit that got sparked twenty years ago at the Haystack Revival.   

My POV is that, while the US has never been a “Christian nation”, if it were not for so many revivals like that one in our history, things would have been far worse than they have been.  This is why we shd be praying for another revival.  We shd be praying that we will go beyond political labels and denomination groups to focus more on being the Church.  This would include learning from our Christian brethren and sistren in the two-thirds world and Europe.  

Anyways, I think I’m going to have a change in focus in my blogging in the coming weeks.  I am going to blog more about what I am reading for my classes and less about political stuff.  I am going to work out my end-game strategy for the politics of MN and focus more on schoolwork and seeking a teaching position at a college somewhere for next year.  

There are plenty of bloggers out there to write on faith and politics and I’m sure the topic will come up relatively frequently in what I blog about regarding my classwork, as it always seems to do so….
