New Westminster has a conference coming up that, apparently, is about:
Church Depot (Diocese of New Westminster with the BC Synod Evangelical Church of Canada)-Ecumenical Multi-Faith Unit event. Spiritual But Not Religious!
Carriers of Memory, Crucibles of Commitment, Cultivators of Novelty—Possibilities for the Church in a Post-Religious Culture.
No, I have no idea what that means, either, but the second keynote speaker is keen on clarifying at least his part:
The Body as Church, the Church as Garden.
What might Creation, the Spirit of Gaia, our Living Dew-Hearted Mother Earth spinning in the Infinite Cosmic Mystery, be asking of the church today?
So there you have it.
Stuck (#49), you did it. Bravo. I haven’t worked up the courage yet to enter the fray on TitusOneNine. If you really are hoping to illicit a repsonse, however, I suspect your comment would be better placed on the original author’s blog site:

There are 37 comments already and a much more vigorous discussion still ongoing about The Shack than on TitusOneNine.
Stuck (#47), I volunteered to lead the Pioneer Clubs grade 5 and 6 boy’s group at our new church, and tonight was the kickoff. Not only did I not have time to allegorize, I barely had time to breathe! Maybe next week, though.
