Tokens: Hear the Plight

Hi all. A quick reminder that this Thursday is the final Tokens Show of the year, called Hear the Plight.



Even though I've only been able to go to one, I know the quality that goes on there, because of the people involved. Sheryl and I won't be able to be at this one, but having Scot McKnight, Ashley Cleveland, and Odessa Settles should make for a great evening. You can visit www.tokensshow.com for more info, but it will be a great night and if you're in Nashville, I highly recommend taking the time to attend.

Cohort Goes Techno this Thursday

Greetings all,
Our next Cohort gathering is this Thursday, September 3 from 11:30-1:00pm at the Flying Saucer in the Pool Room:
11 10th Ave. South
(Located Behind Union Station)
Nashville, TN 37203

Topic: Technology, Worship and the mission of God. Does our technology help or hinder worship. Is texting the pastor during a sermon a wonderful contextualization of the gospel, or something that makes us a worse kind of people? Taylor Burton Edwards (director of worship resources for the the UMC General Board of Discipleship) leads the conversation this week.

Tent City Benefit with Phil Keaggy

Everyone is invited to a benefit for Tent City on Wednesday night at Otter Creek Church of Christ, 409 Franklin Road. There will be a reception for Tent City residents at 6pm, and then a concert by Phil Keaggy from 7 - 8:30. As a part of the evening as well, an art show of pictures taken of Tent City residents will be given to the Temple, a Jewish synagogue in Nashville, for display.

It will really be a great night and I hope as many of you as possible can be there.

Christian Scholars' Conference

As an addendum to Phil's post below about the Tokens Radio show, the Christian Scholars' Conference is taking place the next three days on the campus of Lipscomb University. In addition to the 71 paper and panel sessions, there are four main sessions, featuring plenary speakers Billy Collins (US Poet Laureate, 2001-2003), Marilynne Robinson (Pulitzer Prize Winner, 2005), Hubert G. Locke, and Barbara Brown Taylor. Those sessions are free and open to the public, and will doubtless be well worth your time. Times and additional details can be found here.
