The Irony of the Tea Party

Last updated on: September 30, 2011 at 1:45 pm By Tim Suttle

I’ve got a new article up at the Huffington Post called The Irony of the Tea Party. It’s going to be interesting to watch the reaction. Hope you’ll read it & pass it on to a friend! Here’s an excerpt. As the country gears up for the 2012 presidential election season it seems obvious it’s going to be ugly. When it’s all said and done billions will be spent trying to differentiate (i.e. mudsling, smear and annihilate), opposing candidates in... Read more

The Failure of the Mega-Church

Last updated on: September 15, 2011 at 6:32 am By Tim Suttle

I’ve got a new article up at the Huffington Post about the failures of the mega-church model. I couldn’t say all that I wanted to say in the article because of the limits of space. A couple clarifying things I will add here are addressed specifically at some of the comments & the tweet from Rick Warren. I have spent most of my professional life living between the worlds of the small church and the mega-church. In Satellite Soul, we... Read more

Great Article by Rustin Smith

Last updated on: September 8, 2011 at 1:38 pm By Tim Suttle

Rustin Smith is a good friend of mine. He wrote a killer article at Immerse Journal about Johnny Cash & what it means to be an artist and a human being in the world. There is a little something here for the music lover, the pastor, the artist, and just the person who wants to live a life that is true in a world that is challenging. This is brilliant writing & you should read it and follow Rustin here... Read more

The Church Planter as Mythic Hero

Last updated on: September 6, 2011 at 6:50 pm By Tim Suttle

David Fitch has a great post on the mythic figure of “church planter.” I’ve been on staff with three church plants in the past 15 years. That said… Fitch is right on target. I know it is a bit of a caricature, but his sketch of the church planter is on target and a little scary. It’s totally worth the time to read the blog post so have at it here: http://tinyurl.com/3wc7upu Read more

Andy Osenga’s Indie Christian Music

Last updated on: August 8, 2011 at 2:21 pm By Tim Suttle

I’ve got a new article up at the Huffington Post. Here’s an excerpt: The entire music business is in flux, and contemporary Christian music has not escaped the changes. Digital recording platforms have revolutionized the way music is made — and who can make it. Digital distribution has change the way music reaches the consumer — and who will profit from it. Grassroots and independent models have become more and more successful over the past decade. “Indie,” which was once... Read more

The Ethics of the Google Search

Last updated on: August 4, 2011 at 2:46 pm By Tim Suttle

This is one of the most interesting video clips I’ve seen in a long time. I’m shocked but not surprised to learn that the algorithms and filters employed by sites such as Google, Facebook and more and more of our news outlets actually control our internet experience. Those sites mine data from your search history in order to learn what you like and don’t like. They then filter out things that you may not typically see, showing only the kind... Read more

May the Right Hand of the Lord b used to Slap You!

Last updated on: July 27, 2011 at 9:33 am By Tim Suttle

That’s what one of the comments says underneath this video on youtube.com – if it were a caption content for a video, that would be a winner! There’s something about the moment when the first guy takes off running that just makes me laugh so hard I want to cry. About halfway through the video a woman stands up and picks something up off the carpet. I think it was the wallet of one of the runners & she went... Read more

For my smoking hot wife… Lord hear our prayer

Last updated on: July 25, 2011 at 1:36 pm By Tim Suttle

I like NASCAR. I know I don’t fit the profile, but I can’t help it. I’m also a pastor, which means I pray in public a lot. In a million years I would never be able to pull this off… it’s hilarious… it’s totally wrong… but I bet this guy’s congregation loves him. Read more
