Wired Jesus, WordPress, and a New Year

Well, what can I say? The second half of 2009 did not go the way that I expected for Wired Jesus and there were no podcasts, much to your dismay. In the midst of it all, the new versions of Itunes don’t seem to play nice with my version of Wordpress and its [...]

What’s Up?

The summer has gone by quickly and has been far busier than I had hoped. I plan on getting a podcast done here soon but besides my senior pastor duties, I have a new sermon writing project for Augsburg Fortress (our church publishing house), a church consult on alternative worship in October, a seminar [...]

Wired Jesus in the News

Last week I did an interview for our local newspaper, The Findlay Courier, on churches, web pages, and the internet. The reporter, Sara Arthurs, did a great job and expanded out a little on the whole subject of digital ministry, mentioning the Wired Jesus Podcast. So, check out Sara’ book blog but [...]

Coming Up For Air

Hello, one and all!
I’m up for air and just wanted to let everyone know that the transition to Ohio has gone well and we’re pretty much settled into the house and I’m finding my groove here at the new church. The people here have been remarkable friendly and receptive to Wired Jesus and there [...]

Moved In… Kinda

The moving truck arrived, the boxes are all in the same house, I had a good first day in the office with the staff, so life is good.
I’m not sure I will get a podcast off this weekend – I preach and Carla wants me to do something about all the boxes around the house [...]

The Move Is Finished… Sort of

May and June have been absolutely nuts but the good news is that our transition continues. We have moved in our apartment and closed on our house despite my wife nearly breaking her ankle and ending up on crutches (not to get out of helping with the move ). So [...]

What’s Up With Tom?

Just an update for all you listeners out there. We are in the process of a move into temporary housing since we managed to sell our Chicago house in this horrible market. I’m interviewing at several congregations around the country, so I don’t know where I’ll be landing yet but should be before [...]

Podcast Alley – The World Has Changed

I just took a look at my link on Podcast Alley. It has been awhile but the last time I looked at podcasts on Itunes, I noticed that all the top podcasts are all corporate stuff. Most of us indie folks have disappeared, not because we didn’t have anything to say but between [...]

Wired Jesus Podcast #39 – Community Revisited

I can’t believe its already February and no podcast. My bad. This whole thing of being on leave from call while trying to find a new position, get my FAFSA done for college, and the Transformational Leaders Gathering took a big bite out of free time.
However, here is a new podcast with an [...]

Act 3 Seminar

Like I just mentioned, I am doing a seminar for Act 3 Ministries here in Chicago for my good friend, John Armstrong. Act 3 is a unique ministry that brings together mainliners and evangelicals for mutual conversation and mission – not always an easy thing to do – but John has the cred to [...]
