Well, it is less about me sharing than asking others to share their Gather article / video links... I'm looking for recommended reading today, so hope you have something for me Jennifer!

This is actually from yesterday, but it was part one of a two-part series and part two is coming next weekend. On Speaking of Faith, Krista Tippett is having a discussion about the "new" evangelical leaders. Jim Wallis was on the show this past weekend and Tippett has written a gather article about it here.

I've seen Wallis speak, read his wonderful book God's Politics: Why the Right Gets it Wrong and the Left Doesn't Get it and highly recommend Tippett's piece.

Next week, she'll be talking with Rick Warren, author of the very successful book, The Purpose Driven Life. That should be a good program, too!

Thanks, Diana! I haven't seen Wallis speak or read the book, so this will be pretty cool.

I just logged on and have only read one article besides this one listed on my My Gather page. The first one is worth promoting:

Joel Carillet's Article

Mark thanks for speaking up...I saw a blog post about it (in that infamous RSS reader, spinning past) but hadn't delved in.

Duckie One picked a winner. I love Joel Carillet's work, written and photographic.
Gary, I'll e-mail you the answer. I wanted to know the same thing, not dumb at all. Look how many people can't do it! Julia helped me out.

Julia, my favorite radio show is KFAI's Louisiana Rhythms. And I've recently heard one of the best show's yet. Karl Smelker hosted it on Friday, November 23rd. It's in the archives, but will be gone this coming Friday. I wish I knew how to podcast it. You can have a listen here. Just scroll down a tad to Louisiana Rhythms and stream it. I thought it started slowly for the first seven or so minutes, but then picked up with the most danceable tunes ever.

And the best talk program I've heard lately has been Truth to Tell, when they turned the program over to seventh and eighth graders who discussed discrimination in the school amongst their peers.

What I found intriguing is that during the middle of the day these kids had our ear. Imagine, listening to children and giving them the opportunity for respectful dialogue with one another as well as listeners. (Hey, I just remembered that I called in and talked for a minute on-air.)
