This weekend Trisha and I are going to Minneapolis this weekend, I am brimming with excitement. In November I bought tickets for the Bruce Springsteen show. Springsteen has been one of my favorite artist for a number of years now, while the tickets aren't the great I think simply being at the show will be a memorable experience. I am pretty giddy right now just thinking about the show.
Our other plans for our weekend in Minneapolis trip is to check out Solomon's Porch. An emergent church that appears to be doing some exciting things in the city. I first encountered Solomon's Porch through an assignment for my Pastoral Theology class at Providence College, where my assignment was to read Church Re-imagined. The book is a fascinating look at a group of people trying to make sense of the faith during changing times, one of the strengths of the book is that it is written by the entire community not only the pastor.
Up until now Trisha and I were at a loss about what to do on Saturday evening within our budget, but just today I was checking out Doug Pagitt's blog and Solomon's Porch will be host something called Mockingbirds Nest. It sort of looks like an open mic thing for expression of faith, the weekend just gets better. Well I should start packing for the weekend.

Glad you are coming and that you are going to the concert. Maybe we can hook-up at the show.
