the 7

1. In the last “The 7,” I linked to Ed Stetzer’s “contrarian” entry on some questions and concerns regarding the multi-site mode of church multiplication. Here is the second part in that series. Particularly interesting is the interchange between Ed, Greg and Geoff Surratt. Check it…

2. Kitschy sermon series. Blah. With that in mind, I loved this. I couldn’t resonate more with Drew…

3. Very interesting post on the issue of tithing in the early stages of growing a church plant via A.J.

4. J-Vo continues to pump out great post after great post. This post regarding workaholism particularly caught my attention because I’ve been there, done that. And need to continue ask myself the questions he lists at the end of his entry…

5. Ed Young Jr.’s “Church Pirates” vid has received quite the buzz. On Todd Rhodes blog, there are 147 comments alone, mostly challenging Ed’s thoughts. Bob Hyatt [here and here] and Brant Hansen bring their irenic thoughts to the table. [I don't think Ed thought through this very well. Too many holes. And then he put on video and posted it on his blog. Unfortunately - but maybe appropriately - is getting posterized, er, sharpened.]

6. Scott McKnight’s insightful thoughts on plagarism

7. And another classic from Brant: Ministry Without the People.
