So many shiny objects, so little time. But I'm glad to hear you're interested in it. Because you know me—I'll write for a readership of one, if that one is appreciative enough. Not yet, Adam.

As someone drawn to Eastern cultures and spirituality, the fortune cookie drew me in, for sure... and how great it was to be re-connected to Presentation Zen (a long-time favorite). Ben Zander's and Marty Neumieir's work are also lighting me up as well. Thanks for the intro. As always, I love your style and insightfulness. I, too, was turned off to organized religion pretty early on... but the desire for connection has stayed with me (thank whatever you want to call it).

I hope to rectify that button/gumdrop situation in 2007. Mary K - wow--it's book recommendation day at communicatrix...how awesome! I'm glad my definition resonates. Would that it spreads, right? We'd all be better off, I think, traditional and non-traditional churchgoers alike. Greg - thank you for the kind words and the book reco. I hope to rectify that button/gumdrop situation in 2007.

Sunday marks my personal time. Sometimes Church is an obligation I am reluctant to serve and other times it is something I desperately long for. Thank you again for your definition of what Church should be. You might appreciate the book, "Growing an Engaged Church: How to Stop "Doing Church" and Start Being the Church Again" by Albert L. Winseman. I have also benefitted from the book, "Sabbath Finding Rest, Renewal, and Delight in Our Busy Lives" by Wayne Muller.

I've spent the better part of the last hour reading your back issues... I'd like to note that nowhere in the 2004 or 2006 years of your writing did you once mention the words "Button" or "Gumdrop". I just thought that was odd... On your current topic today, have you read "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert... I don't know why, but I think you'd enjoy it... Great stuff!
