Weekly Offering for the Youngsters (under 30s)
I'd forgotten about this little gem, and would like to introduce you to it: Geez magazine, a pretty wack publication they self describe as 'holy mischief in the age of fast faith', and 'a bustling spot for the over-churched, out-churched, un-churched and maybe even the un-churchable. For wannabe contemplatives, front-line world-changers and restless cranks.' So be forewarned, it's no trad piece by any means--its publisher and co-editor is Aiden Enns, former managing editor of Adbusters magazine. There's an interview by CBC radio's religious affairs program Tapestry that will give you an audio introduction, or you can start with their homepage: http://www.geezmagazine.org/ . They're 'unapolagetically Christian' (yay!), ecumenical in personal backgrounds, and Canadian.
Where the name came from... it's not the penguin movie and it's not a fetish site...
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good tidings, who publishes peace, who brings good tidings of good, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, "Your God reigns". Isaiah 52:7 RSV
I have a Masters of Theological Studies, and some other papers beginning with B. I like art, music, cats, bran muffins and photography. I love the Latin version of The Grinch. I teach high school Latin and sociology at a private Christian school (Hi Guys!!).
