February Cohort
February Cohort tentatively scheduled for Saturday February 28 at noon.
Location: TBA
However - we discussed having a weekday Cohort as well hopefully starting as early as this month, if you have a day preference, post a comment, or email me at mpjm223@gmail.com
We had a great conversation at the January cohort ranging from serious to light hearted. Our group included people of many denominational backgrounds (Catholic, Disciples of Christ, Lutheran, Methodist, and Presbyterian) many working directly in ministry, but some "lay" people too. We shared where we saw God working in our ministries and our lives and look forward to meeting again together this month.
If you are interested in joining us, do not hesitate to contact me or even just show up!

Meeting with Emergent Detroit
For the near future I plan to meet with a cohort that will be meeting in Ferndale, the Metro Detroit Emergent Cohort (North Metro Detroit). The next meeting is May 15th. I believe it is wiser for the time being to meet with this cohort that has already started rather than split my efforts from theirs. When the time seems right to begin meetings of an additional cohort on the south/ south-west side of the city, we can do so.

Article on "Ancient-Future Faith"
A recent article from Christianity Today discusses the trend towards incorporating ancient practices into worship and discusses "emerging" trends among many young Christians.

Faces of an emerging Church
Across the country, small groups of Christians are attempting to model their lives off of those early Christians from the book of Acts who tried to live a simple life of obedient faith in community with other Christians.
For example, you may read...
A Boston Globe Article, "The Unexpected Monks"
http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/ideas/articles/2008/02/03/the_unexpected_monks/
about A Christian Community in San Francisco called "Seven"
about another Christian Community called "The Simple Way"in Philadelphia
An article from "Christianity Today" called "The New Monasticism"
An article from "The Christian Century" - "The New Monastics"
