While I give you an update on what&#8217;s been up in my life and how that has unfortunately sidetracked Wired Jesus way too much, I also reflect on <a href=\"http:\/\/bradstine.blogware.com\/\">Brad Stine<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.godmen.org\/\">Godmen.<\/a>  In a nutshell, Godmen seems to be a postmodern version of PromiseKeepers but charged with a healthy dose of 21st Century reality,  WWF, and a radical vision of Jesus.  The result?  An amazing response by guys turned off by a wimpy version of Christianity and an angry response by Christians, particularly mainliners and evangelicals, for selling out to a jock culture.  Check out the links and judge for yourself.  Between GodMen and my situation here, it just illustrates that the larger culture inside and outside the church don&#8217;t really get the changes that have happened in the last 15 years and what that means for being church right now.

However, the arrival of my new MacBook Pro and the departure of my old Dell, should be a sign of better things to come &#8211; once Apple fixes the faulty line in port.
