Earlier this year I took on the job of editing the journal of the Anabaptist Association of Australia and New Zealand, On The Road. This month my first issue came out!

‘Sponsored by Elusive Brethren and Right Wing American Fundamentalist Groups’
Increasingly I just can’t tell whether fundamentalists are joking or not. Or whether their site has been hacked. At http://christiannews.co.nz/, the subheading is ‘Sponsored by the Elusive [sic] Brethren and Right Wing American Fundamentalists’ and they have a barcode to the right, the mark of the beast for many fundamentalists.

Anabaptist blog: radref; and some things I was going to blog about

The baptist vision blog / meetings for a house church
James McClendon’s work is so important, and I feel ignorant for only having read some of it years ago summarily. I think his idea of a ‘baptist vision’ is good for Anabaptists, as it puts us in touch with our brothers and sisters in similar traditions like the Baptists (capital B!) and the Churches of Christ.

Ben Witherington has a blog
I’ve always liked the New Testament scholar, Ben Witherington, and now I’ve discovered he’s got a blog, with a wide range of topics, not just theology.
