Contemplative Advent? Whatevs.

Greetings! I'm sure you are beginning to think about what to get me for Christmas, right? Well, I got something for you! If you are viewing this on the FPC Website, then there is a document attached that you can download that has all of our Advent Worship Services as well as some resources to help you prepare for the celebration of Christmas! Just what you wanted? I know, RIGHT? Well, if you are worried about what to give me, first off – nothing. The Worship books contain material owned by others and used under the Creative Commons Liscence. Nothing is for sale, because it isn't all mine to sell. If you use it to worship God, then that's a good thing.

So, have a Contemplative Advent, a Mery Christmas, and a Happy New Year!
Zach

I Am Legend

I've been waiting for this movie to come out on video for some time now. I don't see movies as much as I used to, but this is one I've been waiting for. Fortunately I got to see it on a home theater system. This film is definitely enhanced by larger viewing real estate and surround sound. If you aren't familiar with it, a genetically engineered virus has mutated humanity into vampire/zombie types. Dr. Robert Neville (Will Smith) is one of the last living humans, and he is working on the cure. It's based on the novel with the same title by Ricard Mathison . There are a few things of interest from the film theologically. Actually there are a ton. The relevance of human contact, concepts of God, the position of hope in human suffering, the expectation of sacrifice upon those who feel compelled to challenge the root causes of suffering, and the significance of community are just a few. Without spoiling the film, I'll just say a thing or two about God's...

books?

Hi friends (and family)! I'm in the process of editing my old sermons and publishing a book that can be ordered on line. I also have a book of poetry that I wrote in seminary that I may consider publishing as well. Family members already have a copy. Just wanted to throw that out there in case any are interested. If you are interested, please post a comment in response to let me know. I'm going to do it just to get it done. I do not expect it to sell. Hearing that some folks are actually interested in the project might motivate me to get it done more quickly, though! Peace, Zach
