I'm up today at Tapestry. My blog entry is Beyond Relevance.

"About a decade ago, the catchword became relevance. "But is the ministry relevant?" we all asked. It was--and is--a good question. After all, Jesus became man in order to be relevant. The man knew his communication theory.

 

Though the term's not as in fashion anymore, the way we act and think betrays our commitment to relevance, especially in science and art (I use the term here broadly). The problem is, when we stop here, we get caught up in trends and fads. As Christians, we are relevant, but we should be beyond relevant.

We should be transformational."

The post goes on to talk about the basis for this transformation as well as its reach into science, art, economics, technology, etc.
