Some Recent Writing

I’ve been doing some writing recently that hasn’t appeared here.

In case you didn’t catch this, I wrote a well-received (and much posted and tweeted) article at The Gospel Coalition, entitled “Five Necessary Shifts for Missional College Ministry,” which was a distillation of chapter 3 in my book. I’m working on another article for TGC that I hope will run in the next week or two.

My friend Brad Baker, college pastor at Saddleback (Rick Warren’s church) in Orange County, CA, asked me to write up this article for his website, collegeministry.com. I called it “Why I Love Ministry to College Students (and you should too).” Some nice resources at Brad’s website for college ministry, worth checking out.

I also wrote a piece that will appear on the Immerse Journal website next month, on “Open Source Ministry,” a very interesting topic. Some very good articles there recently. Immerse does a good job of combining the print and online components of their journal.

I’ve also been writing some talks on Proverbs for Elements, our ministry here at PSU, not to mention this week’s sermon on Jonah 3, entitled “Am I Fish Vomit?” Yep, that’s the title. For reals.

One more thing–I’ve been working with some friends on a new website. Hoping to unveil that soon. Will let you know when I do.
