Some favourite posts

Here are some of my favourite posts over the last year — ones that I wish that more people had read and commented on, to start a conversation.

If you’re reading this, I hope that you might look at two or three that strike your fancy, and promise to comment on at least one of them.

• Mugabe, Verwoerd and Human Rights Day
• Missional ecclesiology — what is it?
• Worshipping God and Mammon
• Ubuntu and moral regeneration
• A generous orthodoxy – Brian McLaren in Pretoria
• Come again? Left, right or the excluded middle?
• The youth of today, and yesterday
• Capitalism versus communalism – who owns the blogosphere?
• The church and money (synchroblog)
• House Church
• Christianity and shamanism
• A conspiracy of silence — South African church history
• Swinging London — in retrospect
• Nevius, Allen, Kasatkin – missional church planting
• Consumerists, collectivists and welfarists
• Christian community — what is it?

When I started this blog a year ago, it was an experiment. So many blogs on my blogroll had moved from Blogger to WordPress that I thought I’d have a look at WordPress to see what it could do. The “new and improved” Blogger had lost a lot of its functionality, and the new owners, Google, seemed to be in no hurry to fix it.

In the end I decided not to move my Notes from underground blog from Blogger, but to use both, and to use whichever seemed to be best for the task.Most of the Blogger bugs are fixed now, and there are still somethings it does better or more easily than WordPress.
