Etc., Etc., Etc.

I love in The King and I, the king's love of the phrase, "etcetera, etcetera, etcetera." I hear it in my head every time I think of that word.

Today's etceteras:

1. I'm up at Tapestry today talking about doing theology and how we approach the Bible (inspired partly by reading Coffeehouse Theology and partly by a conversation from last time I posted at Tapestry). Read What's It All About, Alfie?

2. I think you guys have forgotten that Artuality is a festival in which many can participate! Come on, are you telling me none of you have watched a movie and been struck by something? Anything? Bueller? Bueller? To participate in this month's Artuality festival, blog about something movie related--how a movie made you look at something in a different way, how it showed you Christ's love or the joy of Christianity or a piece of what the resurrection means, or how it inspired you artistically perhaps--and come back and link your blog using Mr. Linky so that we all can read about it. Read Artuality: Bullets Over Broadway

3. Blog Nosh has a fiction short story up today, "The Letter." It's a haunting story with a poetic rhythm to its prose. I highly recommend taking a moment to read it.

4. Later today (hopefully), I'll get up my thoughts on The Violent Bear It Away by Flannery O'Connor. I finished it a week ago and have been mulling some things over.

See ya in the funny papers!
