December 5, 2009 at 8:25am1. Support an independent artist -- all purchases of "In Our Midst" go toward studio time to record and mix the next album.

2. Support a new ministry -- help get the word out. And since the lyrics are based in scripture, help get the Word out.

3. The music is gorgeous.

4. The full art/lyrics booklet is beautiful.

5. Its hard to find progressive Christian music.

6. Your friends and family will thank you.

7. We'll thank you.

8. Buying directly from the artist means your dollars will go directly to the ministry vs. to Apple through iTunes (they have enough).

9. Can't think of #9.

10. It's only $10 if you buy more than one!

Affirming a Faith together...Easter Sunday, 4/4/10

At church we read together a beautiful new Confession of Faith from a contemporary liturgy writer, Doug Gay, professor of Practical Theology at the University of Glasgow who seems to be working on emerging church issues and alternative worship resources for a new generation http://www.gla.ac.uk/departments/theology/staff/douglasgay/

What do you think of this a a new Creed or Confession of Faith??

"We Believe in Life" by Doug Gay

We believe in the God of life,
The world maker, the starlighter,
The sun shiner, the beauty maker;
Provoking evolution from nothing but words of love,
We believe in life.

We believe in the risen Jesus,
The cross bearer, the tomb raider,
The hell-harower, the death deifier; 
Embracing resurrection as the first-born from death,
We believe in life.

We believe in the God of Life,
World-maker, cross bearer, life-giver
Trinity of hope leading creation to its liberation
We believe in God
