Compassion in Politics: Christian Social Justice, Non-Profits, and Life Theology

Just giving you a heads up. Not sure why… Sorry….

I haven’t done all the political breakdown I promised last week. I encountered some tech issues that significantly slowed my progress. Sorry.

Upcoming: I’m thinking of doing interviews perhaps. Also, I picked up UnChristian over the weekend and will be doing a couple posts on the book (commentary, questions, and perhaps some light criticism)

If you have any comments or suggestions for my blog, feel free to drop them in the comments or email me at nathan_debate [at] yahoo.com

Greetings,Well, my blogging has fallen off a bit of late.  I feel like I have my groove back today thanks to a weekend that allowed me to spiritually re-charge and re-focus. 

thanks to cotigchez for the flickr photo. 

I just arrived in Nashville about 7 hours ago and this seemed like a great opportunity to provide an update.  Well, I should have some more politically oriented posts coming up in the next couple of days, hopefully an update of the critiques of “God is not great,” and some discussions on corporate accountability…Also, I’m going to make an effort to make the blog a little more artsy and fun with some colorful pics.  When they get posted, feel free to provide feedback… I’m toying with launching another blog about creativity & innovation.  Thoughts? questions? concerns? Oh…and hope everyone is  having a great week!Ps.  Its great to be home in Nashville again!  God totally blessed me and my father, who helped out greatly, during our travels…

While this isn’t perhaps as cool as Edwards new hairdo, I think it looks very pro-fesh! So, I want to send a big hand of thanks to tech guru and all around great guy Ross Karcher @ DC Tech Events. I would be remiss if I didn’t also give props to Dheeraj Chand has offer to advise me further as well as Mr. DC Unconference himself, Justin Thorp, whose basic theme and organization I borrowed. Oh, I would be highly remiss if I didn’t also give props to Jared Goralnick who encouraged me to get a legit blog on wordpress. I hope its purdy and a lot more useful for readers. If you have any suggestions for extra wordpress widgets to add, I have open ears.

So feel free to kick the tires and give the new interface a test drive. I’m hoping to fix the case of the shrinking widget post box and add an iconEto the RSS feed link. Please….explore, kick your feet up, comment, and come back…

So how can I pimp my blog? Ideas? Suggestions?

For some reason I feel like doing another dance….

(pick the OkGo video of your choice…) And afterward scroll down to check out Talking Points Memo, the New GigaOM Show or one of the other 200+ shows on Vod Pod.

New Update: I included a link to my Facebook, My Blog Log, and Twitter. Friend me.

Hey! Thanks for coming to my blog. I just returned to DC from a nice respite with friends and family in Nashville. At the moment, I’m packing up my earthly belongings in DC to pack into my comparatively miniscule dark green Saturn to head back to my hometown of Nashville. Although thats not written in stone, it certainly feels that things are moving in that direction…

What does that mean? Well, transistions are always interesting….like entering a new part of your life. So change is around the corner, which is hard because for the last 2 years the DC area has been home. Alternatively, the move south to the vivrant, musical town of my youth is optimistically re-freshing.

Just a heads up, that means my posting, which has lagged a bit since Wednesday, is going to slow down a bit… However, soon I will be back in the swing of things probably by friday or next monday…but perhaps sooner. Again…thanks for your ongoing support. Ya’ll have a good one….ya hear.
