when i went to church this morning i found a nice surprise in my mail box – the reading packet from “the simple way.” they sent the packet to prepare me for my time with them in october. the packet is composed of various articles that will help me to understand how to interpret what i will experience. here’s what is in the packet:
- “the cost of short-term mission” by jo ann van engen
- “that they may be one” by bob lupton
- “downward mobility” by bob lupton
- “myths” by chris lahr
- “downward mobility in an upscale wiorkd” by shane claiborne
i’ve scanned over it all (and so has pam) and it has made me even more excited about going ti e hang out with the people of “the simple way.”
