As you might imagine, with COVID, much of this has been moved online. So, I thought I share a couple of links so that even from the States, you could experience some Dublin Culture online.

Here are two specific events. We have been to both (the Book of Kells many times).

We will broadcast live from the Old Library on #CultureNight and we are so excited about what is in store! 🎥
Tune in to the #BookofKells Facebook account from 6pm – 8pm to hear live talks from experts that work behind the scenes. Learn more here: https://t.co/fYJDsPSveW pic.twitter.com/RfjYp90VD1

Check out the @dublinlive guide for how to make the most of Dublin Culture Night this year.

I grew up in Western New York and have started and led missional church planting efforts for a little over 30 years. As you might gather, I have opinions about the church, and I share some of them here.

3 Ways Christendom Has Been Bad for the Church

May 16, 2023

This is the fourth post in a series I’ve been writing on Christendom. The previous ones (here, here and here) were to lay some groundwork as I move into the main idea I want to dig into: the damage done to the church by aligning with the Roman Empire and,...

Christendom: An Introduction

May 2, 2023

I often write about leadership, power, and church structures. Some of the issues and ideas I've presented may seem at odds with how the church has always done things. And some of the questions I receive from readers back that up. There is an old story where one fish...

Why Ireland Quit Going to Church. A Few Thoughts.

Jan 19, 2023

I have been reading the book, The Best Catholics in the World (2021) by Irish Times correspondent Derek Scally. It has been a compelling and thought-provoking read (I still have a few chapters remaining). An added layer of interest for me is that the author...
