TONIGHT at our regular Pub Theology DC gathering, we’ll be LIVE TWEETING – you can join us in person, at the Bier Baron at 1523 22nd St NW – just a few blocks west of the Dupont Circle Metro stop, or you can jump in on the conversation via Twitter using #pubtheology. Be sure to follow me (@bryberg) and (@pubtheology). Here are the topics we’ll be discussing:

  1. If you could name the street you live on what would you call it?

  1. If you received an extra burrito when ordering at your local shop would you say something?

  1. True or false: We should be wary of any efforts to improve human nature.

  2. Did you march on Saturday? Are you marching tomorrow? Does marching lead to justice?

  1. Did Jesus pay for our sins? In what way?

  1. Is hell a just punishment for sinful people?

WE’D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!  Come on down and join us for a pint, or grab your smart phone, a craft-brewed pint, and hit the Twitters! Starting at 7pm.

CANA Initiative Recap

Had a great week this week joining other instigators at the CANA Initiative gathering, which happened here in Washington, DC. I'd say it was a few days of dreaming what might come out of a network bringing a range of people together who are ready to live into and experience a new kind of faith. As Philip Clayton put it, sometimes you have to kick up the dust to see where the wind is blowing. Much dust was kicked up, including vital challenges from Anthony Smith and others on the need to expand the diversity present in the conversation from the outset. What in the world is CANA? Glad you asked. Here's a synopsis: CANA is a collective of Christian leaders, organizations and networks across the United States who collaborate to embody and act on a courageous, liberating and compassionate faith.

A Tale of Three Beers

An Irishman moves into a tiny hamlet in County Kerry, walks into the pub and promptly orders three beers. The bartender raises his eyebrows, but serves the man three beers, which he drinks quietly at a table, alone. An hour later, the man has finished the three beers and orders three more....

4 steps for talking about Jesus at the bar (or coffeehouse, or anywhere else)
4 steps for talking about Jesus at the bar (or coffeehouse, or anywhere else)

If you're like me, you've been told once or twice that being a good Christian includes occasionally telling other people about Jesus. Your reaction might go something like: “Ewww. Yuck. I’m not that interested in evangelism, or selling something, or anything like that.” But there is another part of you which senses that if more people knew the Jesus who was a radical for peace, forgiveness, love, and justice—the world would be a better place. So how does one go about doing this, without feeling like an unwanted door-to-door salesperson or an awkward friend?

POLL: Pub Theology Conversation online

As part of creating space online for ongoing Pub Theology conversation, I'm considering a new Facebook group. Vote below with your thoughts. If you think I should consider something other than Facebook, let me know that in the comments. I'm in the process of creating a new Pub Theology website, so hoping whatever I create can be embedded and accessed there.

Pub Theology 2012!

Our first gathering of the year is tonight. Here's a sneak-peak at what's on the sheet:
