Announcing a New Resource Blog
The board of the Association of Lutheran Resource Centers has begun a blog! It’s a new opportunity for learning about and highlighting best resources, This is a team effort to serve pastors, teachers, and lay leaders around the church. The blog is best suited to announcements and posts from the board that benefit from “tagging” about different topics. The posts become part of a “feed” that anyone can subscribe to or put on their center’s website. The blog provides a way of categorizing and saving the best resources through posts, pages, and tags. It also makes more public and visible what resource centers have to offer. Unlike a listserv or e-mail group that requires joining, anyone can browse a blog.

Among the many privileges of the work I do is the opportunity to explore resources from a wide spectrum of writers, producers, and publishers. To this rich mix, add the bonus of regular conversations with colleagues, pastors, and teachers whose passion for learning and teaching is contagious. The result continues to be an almost insatiable appetite on my part for reading and learning, hearing and viewing books and tapes, lectures and presentations, travel related to study, and opportunities of all kinds for continuing education.
You will find here a “working list” of some resources which continue to be life-giving and faith-stretching! Continue reading…
