The Possibility of Alternative Orthodoxy
Hello Tablers! Important housekeeping matters first, because if you’re reading this on your phone you might not have time to scroll down past paragraph one…
We’re gathering at Pantages Theater this week, and at the Plett Ranch next week. More details regarding next week in a subsequent blurb, but for now you should know that the gathering time will be the same as usual (not including the drive time from Winnipeg, which is around 40 minutes) and will be followed by a pot luck lunch – basically, our first Souper Sunday of the season. Everyone is welcome to stay for lunch and to hang afterward, but (as always) you can come and go as you need to or are able to.
Kids Table is ON! They are meeting in this cool room at Pantages that’s like a castle turret, looking down over their parents from a vaunted position…basically, the architectural equivalent of where Freud suggested they already think they live in the universe. Hmmm….
Serving Teams – the awesome groups of people that help our “mobile” gathering happen every week could use some help. There are presently some people that are on two or three different teams, and if a few more of us step up they can occasionally have a week off. That sounds like a fairly practical type of kindness to me. If you are interested, you can reply to this email, or talk with Jane Penner on any given Sunday. Jane coordinates all of this. For my part, I can’t say “THANK YOU” enthusiastically enough to Jane and the folks on these teams. You turn everywhere we go into a place of welcome.
Talky Bit – I want to do an idea mash-up that addresses the legitimate confusion around what it might look like to both “stand in the Christian tradition” (a phrase I often use to try to place our community in it’s wider historical context), and also to think about what we believe in new ways, which is what I’ve begun to explore in this seasons chats. So just to give you something to chew on, here are two definitions. The question is…what does it look like to bring these two things into the same lived life? Here you go:
or·tho·dox·y
ˈôrTHəˌdäksē/
noun
noun: orthodoxy; plural noun: orthodoxies
1.
authorized or generally accepted theory, doctrine, or practice.
“monetarist orthodoxy”
synonyms:doctrine, belief,
