PeaceBang
The manic mind of the minister -- Auntie Mame Meets Cotton Mather. Blogging about Unitarian Universalism, UU Christian spiritual practice, occasional cultural and political ravings, and the inner life of ministry. PeaceBang is the alter ego of a small town pastor serving an historic New England Unitarian Universalist congregation.
Welcome, Boston Globe Readers!!
July 25, 2008 on 10:07 am | In Greatest Hits, Shout-Outs |Boston Globe religion reporter Michael Paulson gave me a shout-out on his blog today so I thought I’d give any new stoppers-by a more substantive, truly Unitarian Universalist-oriented entry to read than my latest cultural commentary. But for now, that dog is prancing by the door and that can’t be good. Get that leash, Max! Mama’s comin’!
[Post-doggie walk, we’re back!]
The archives are pretty well-organized, and if you’re new to blogs all you need do is scroll around under the categories to the right that appeal to you and click to find related entries. I do everything from theological reflection to sermon excerpts to “random rants” to movie and book reviews (I was one of the only religion writers –however minor — to lambaste Elizabeth Gilbert’s best-selling Eat, Love, Pray last year, causing quite a furor in the comment sections) … and for those of you who are planning to go whale-watching this weekend, you might enjoy this reflection on whales. Hey, we’re nothing if not varied in our offerings here at PeaceBang!
Want to weigh in on the songs that make you cry? Dozens of other readers did so recently here. Blogs are fun. PeaceBang aims to be fun, provocative, interactive and to help demolish the stereotype of clergypeople as pious, one-dimensional characters who are so focused on ancient ideas and scriptures that they don’t have both feet firmly planted in the here-and-now, with a dash of hot sauce to go with their spiritual and pastoral dimensions. Visit often, comment freely, and see you around the blogosphere. Or at the MFA tonight. Or at Fenway this weekend, if someone wants to invite me!!
Peace.
Bang.
