A fresh start, so take a whiff...

Well, here's to a brand new year and a brand new online journal.

My reason for starting this journal is twofold:

First, the place where my old journal is located at is shutting down their journal section and changing it to something else. I don't want to have to start my journal there all over again, so I decided to start anew somewhere else.

Secondly, I have become more and more immersed in the Emergent Church Movement (formerly known as the Postmodern Church Movement). Because of this, I wanted this to be a place for me to wrestle with deconstructing Christianity and the church, to share my thoughts and to see what happens as I continue to be on this journey to become "A New Kind of Christian".

A little information about myself:

My name is Adam. I am 34 years old, and I live in the lovely state of Arizona. I am a worship and creative arts pastor at a seven year old church plant in the Northwest Valley of Phoenix. I have been here for almost three years; before that, I was a youth pastor at my homechurch in Colorado for six and a half years, and in Dallas for a year and a half.

I am married, have been for eight years now, and I have an eighteen month old daughter, named Noelle. I also have a ragdoll cat named Kramer.

Between work and my family, I don't have a lot of extra time, but when I do, I play my guitars, play my X-Box, and read books.

So, there you go.
