1.  Over at Kingdom Conversations I am continuing my series on modern day parables.  So often, the church does not take the time to consider the power of stories–especially parables.  So far I have written on business, Vietnam, Police, gas, and resumes .  My good friend Mark has also taken some time at Kingdom Conversations to write about The Other Mark.

2. The State of the Union:

3.  Andrew talks about new ideas for pastor transitions.

4.  Charlie talks about the politics of division.  I commented over there saying that I thought pro-choice and pro-life are not as hard-line as they sometimes like to think.

5.  Cat talks about living in grace.

6.  The Houston Chronicle argues that Christians are afraid of losing power (HT: Jim West)

10.  Goooooooooooooooood Morning Afghanistan.

11.  Good ol’ Calvin and Hobbes:
