Everyday Justice is here!

We just got the actual copy of Julie's book here at our house tonight. It's real! We can hold it in our hands. So excited!

BTW, while it's still on pre-order mode at Amazon, it looks like you can already order it directly from the IVP site if you are so inclined.

Articles by Julie

Between German Reading class, driving to Baton Rouge last weekend for a wedding, working on Emergent Village stuff, and watching the kids so Julie can get her work done, I've not had any time to blog lately. Julie, however, has several great articles out recently. Check out the following:

Daddy's Girls at Sojourners' God's Politics blog.

Weddings, Women and Traditions at Emerging Women.

Review of Will Samson's Enough at Next-Wave Ezine.

Update - Julie has a new post up at Emerging Parents that asks a great question: what should young people do when honoring their parents conflicts with pursuing their faith?

Everyday Justice hits Amazon!

Everyday Justice, Julie's book that she's been working on for the past year and a half is finally up on Amazon.com, and available for pre-order. You can also read some blurbs about it at the publisher's page for it.

As Julie describes the book:

The book, as the title implies, is about justice - about the ways each of us can live into the way of life Jesus calls us to live. I think too often we get overwhelmed by justice issues and decide that they are just for the Mother Teresas or the Shane Claibornes of the world to care about. So this book is about the ways each of us in our simple everyday lives can act justly. In it I explore the ways that we can love our neighbors through what we eat, wear, drive, and consume. But the book isn’t just a list of do’s and don’ts, but an exploration of what it means to love our neighbor. It explores what it means not only to pursue justice with our day to day actions, but also how we can avoid supporting systems of injustice with those actions as well.

I'm so proud and excited for my wife, and I can't wait till the book is available for y'all to read as well. You'd better go ahead and add it to your Amazon Wish List right now so you don't forget. :)

Christianity 21 website live!

21 Voices

21 Ideas

21 Minutes Each

I recently mentioned the Christianity 21 event up in the Twin Cities that Julie will be speaking at next October. They've got their website up now where you can see all of the presenters. It's an amazing line up, not just my wife but all the really cool emerging leaders that I'd love to hear from. It's also supposed to be very interactive and open-source from the participants side of things too, which I love at a conference. Anyhow, if I wasn't staying home with the kids I'd definitely be there. Y'all should come too!

Julie Speaking at the Christianity21 Conference!

Julie is the latest speaker to be announced for the Christianity21 conference next fall (October 9-11) in the Twin Cities, organized by my friends Tony Jones and Doug Pagitt.

21 Voices
21 Ideas
21 Minutes Each
On Faith in the 21st Century

They have an awesome line-up so far: Alise Barrymore, Diana Butler Bass, Denise VanEck, Danielle Grubb-Shroyer, and a lot more great leaders and thinkers (including Julie of course). And they'll be adding even more great speakers to the list each day this month (I've gotten a sneak peak at the whole list) so keep checking back at that Facebook page to see who else will be there. Trust me, you should all definitely plan on attending.

Julie on the Past and Future

Julie has a good post up at Deep Green Conversation about some of our experiences driving through west Texas on our way to New Mexico a few weeks ago. The picture below is an example of what we saw and a preview of what she talks about.
