Culture Makers - Forthcoming Actions/Creations

Let one another know what you're thinking...and how you could use others' input to refine things.

Culture Makers - Reflections

How have the last couple public gatherings stirred you? How are they altering your thinking about life, particularly life as a follower of Jesus? What questions remain? What observations have you made? Etc., etc.

Conversation Guide

A few quick thoughts to keep the gears oiled (to keep conversations alive and helpful):

1. Understand the point (see above). The goal is honestly to create dialogue that leads to community formed theology. This is not a teaching platform, it's a place for dialogue, and we hope it is a lot of fun for you.

2. Nobody wants to read a post of more than 200 words; you can write more but know that people will skim what you write. The fewer the words, the better.

3. Everybody wants to be engaged, drawn-out, etc. so learn to ask good questions. If you come across as the authority, you will be, because nobody will take the conversation any further.

4. Take the time to return and address the questions people ask from your posts. Leave too many unanswered and people will stop asking.

5. Don't be a jerk; relationships matter more than answers.
