Tonight is the Gosford High School Class of 1998 10 Year Reunion. Should be fun. It will be good to turn Facebook stalking into actual conversations. Everyone in 1998 had Green Day’s Time of Your Life as their year 12 song. The vid is below. Peaceout.

Stu Crawshaw has just had his paper, Moving beyond the shock absorber: The place of youth ministry—past, present and future, published on the Briefing website. I read his original and heard it presented at the 2006 Theology of Youth Ministry Conference. It’s brilliant! He has profound insights on the historical movements within youth ministry, and thoughtful ideas on its future direction. Much of the document is the theory behind the Soul Revival youth ministry.
Having hung out with Stu at Bible School this year, I look forward to reading it again after seeing + hearing lots of his thinking embodied. GO READ IT!! There’s nowhere to leave comments on the Briefing website – so feel free to chat about it in the comments here… (pic from here)
Youthsurge & Garage Hymnal have teamed up to change the world in 2009. Here’s a snippet from today’s media release: Youthsurge and Garage Hymnal are teaming up to shatter conceptions of what bible-based youth ministry looks and sounds like. In 2009 the two groups are planning to raise the bar for evangelical youth events, with new programs, new sounds and a new vision.
“People seem to assume that you have to choose between great worship or great bible teaching. What we have in common with Youthsurge is that we don’t like choosing, we want it all!” says Andy Judd, keyboardist in Garage Hymnal.

Currently working on a Genesis essay. Here’s a quote from Wenham that won’t make the cut, but is still worth a read: “The size and complexity of the universe as we know it is beyond the imaginings of the ancients, yet they worshipped and adored the creator of the little world they knew. How much more should modern man be awestruck by the wisdom and power of the God who can create and sustain the universe revealed by modern science, and be amazed by his love for mankind created in the divine image and redeemed by grace.”
