the context of my story today
Today I blog from this porch. (Photo shamelessly stolen from this blog). The weather is warm. The company is rich. The accents are foreign. It is hard enough understanding people in my own culture, yet alone understanding and seeking to be understood in another’s culture.
I’ve sat in 4 days of Ministry to a Postmodern Context. My official role was to provide some visual content to initiate interaction around experiences of postmodernity; to listen and reflect; and to share some of my faith communities story.
On Sunday I drive up to McCall, Idaho, for a Thinktank on Mission to Western Culture. There are about 25 participants; from South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Canada, UK, USA. It is a fascinating mix of missiologists and grounded practioners in church congregations. I am looking forward to listening and talking. But first I will enjoy the warmth of this front porch.

Ahh, but you are a loveable thief, mate!
