Two new resources

Bruxy Cavey is releasing a new expanded version of his book The End of Religion (see my review of the first edition here). He’s hosting a book release party tonight at Tyndale University College & Seminary tonight from 7 to 9 (map). If you’re in the Toronto area you may want to check it out.

Rick McKinley, author of This Beautiful Mess, is blogging. His most recent post, Leading into mission, is a sample of what you’ll read:

Pastors need to lead and quit waiting around. Or YOU need to lead. Pick a place, get some friends give yourself to it. We are suffering in the church not from persecution but from our own apathy towards the things God cares the most about. All that can change pretty quick if someone would simply lead. It takes hard work, lots of conversations and lots of prayer and faith but soon you find yourself in the middle of something that is so big and redemptive that you could not imagine giving your life to something else. But if no one leads nothing ever changes.
