When did it become 2008? Our apologies to
the Jesus Radicals for sending you
information on last summer's conference.
They are indeed hosting a conference this
summer: It will be in Columbus, Ohio, August
15-16th. The title of the
conference is "Another World is
Necessary: Anarchism, Christianity and the
Race from the White House." Click here
for complete information or contact Nekeis
ha
Alexis-Baker.
In the meantime, we are delighted that our
friends at the Cornerstone Festival
took us up on our offer to share the news
and sent us information on their summer
seminar. The Cornerstone
2008 seminar schedule is now online. The
program includes EPers Bill Cavanaugh
and Michael Budde as well as those like
Miroslav Volf and Shane Claiborne that EP
endorsers
might find of interest.
They have also posted their film and pop
culture-related programs. "The
Imaginarium" will be doing a theme called
"Hail, Britannia!" on (somewhat
subversively) empire. And "Flickerings"
will make connections with Miroslav
Volf's presentations and offer a program on
Balkan Cinema, with other films
on reconciliation.
So, again, our apologies to Jesus Radicals.
Please do send us your own news of summer
conferences, seminars, and other
gatherings.
