		<description>Hi,
There&#039;s an article in the most recent edition of Sojourners on the online segregation of Christians. The author basically calls it the online equivalent of Dr. King&#039;s quote, &quot;the most segregated hour of Christian America is eleven o&#039;clock on Sunday morning&quot;. I thought you might want add your thoughts by blogging on this issue.

		<description>I think there is a difference between &#039;Ministry&#039; and &#039;Calling&#039;

your ministry is your family and your close friends. These people need to come first.

your calling is your church. I think a lot of pastors have forgotten this.

		<description>this was good. most pastors don&#039;t have a grasp of the basics because they want to &quot;do big things for God&quot; or &quot;stay busy for Jesus&quot;. it really is in the simple things consistently over time that we see God work, i believe.
