25 More Christian Blogs You Should Be Reading (Editor’s Picks, 2013)

Last updated on: August 28, 2013 at 8:03 pm By Christian Piatt

I’ve agonized quite a bit while assembling this list. As is the case with anything like this, some great resources and people will be left out. Still, as I reflect on the 25 voices I’ve collected here, I’d argue it’s one amazing roster of practitioners, thinkers, writers and artists. In order to help winnow this down to a manageable list of candidates, I used a few criteria for selecting candidates: First, I didn’t select anyone already on the Readers’ Choice... Read more

I’m Awesomely Humble!

Last updated on: August 27, 2013 at 4:54 pm By Christian Piatt

This reflection is part of a larger weekly lectionary study, called Heretic’s Guide to the Bible. Click the link or the banners above or below to learn more. Amy once offered a sermon on humility at our former Church in Colorado. One guy, who I’ll call Hector, always had something interesting to say in response to the sermon, but this week was a chart-topper. And although it was one of the funnier moments I can remember in my time in... Read more

Everyday Sunday, Breaking Bad, Drunk History and Hot Toddlers (HB CultureCast)

Last updated on: August 26, 2013 at 5:36 pm By Christian Piatt

This week, we’re featuring an interview that Christian did with Trey Pearson, front man for the band, Everyday Sunday. Trey and Christian chatted it up at the recent Wild Goose Festival, talking mainly about why a guy who has sold hundreds of thousands of records and landed scads of number-one songs within the Contemporary Christian Music scene would walk away from it all and go independent. His insight into the Christian music industry is truly fascinating. You’ll not want to... Read more

Why the Christian Blog Survey is Freaking Me Out

Last updated on: August 22, 2013 at 10:30 pm By Christian Piatt

Last year, I posted an article listing 25 Christian Blogs people should be reading. It actually was a repost from Matthew Paul Turner, which I put on my blog without edits for two reasons: 1. I’m lazy and the list was good, and; 2. I’m a narcissist and I was on his list Since then, I have gotten THOUSANDS of hits on that piece, with many folks grateful for the resource. Never mind that I didn’t really do anything. So... Read more

Church Sign Epic Fails, Jesus vs Religion (Pt 2 of 2)

Last updated on: August 20, 2013 at 5:28 pm By Christian Piatt

It was sooo cool. Jesus got all up in religion’s grill and was, like, “You…me…octagon.” And he did it in this “Rocky vs. Ivan Drago” kinda voice. Awesome!!! Read more

From a Restless Hypocrite: No Rest for the Wicked

Last updated on: August 19, 2013 at 7:51 pm By Christian Piatt

The following is excerpted from the larger weekly “Heretic’s Guide to the Bible” lectionary study. To read more, or to find out about how to subscribe, CLCIK HERE or on the banners above or below in this post. There’s rich irony in me writing about Sabbath. I’m one of the most notorious violators of days of rest that I know. Technically, I have one “day off” a week. But of course, I am writing this lectionary study on a Monday!... Read more

Why wild Goose Matters (Sojourners Exclusive)

Last updated on: August 19, 2013 at 5:27 pm By Christian Piatt

I just got back a few days ago from a campsite outside of Asheville, N.C., the site of the third annual Wild Goose Festival. For those who are unfamiliar with the event, imagine and old-fashioned days-long outdoor revival, combined with Bonaroo and a traveling circus. For several days, authors, activists, artisans, musicians, and seekers converge to engage in spontaneous community, share ideas and to inspire one another. It’s not every day that you can walk by a makeshift tent and... Read more
