OORC??
From the Dunker Journal: Plain Roman Catholics taking a cue from Old Order Anabaptist groups.
Swinging our Arms

Research explains why we swing our arms when we walk. Click here to read.
I was taught at Tracker School that humans are naturally diagonal walkers like members of the cat, dog and deer family. This means that we move opposite sides of our body at the same time (i.e. right arm and left leg) unless we are aggravated, then we pace. That means that we move both sides of the body at the same time (i.e. left arm and left leg).
Don't believe me?
Check it out for yourself.

New Minds, No Programs
I just posted on the A Place Apart Blog a letter that I received from it's director.
The post mentions a lot of what I've been feeling about the Church lately and the timing of it was absolutely impeccable.
I'm reminded of Daniel Quinn's thought: "If the world is saved, it will not be saved by old minds with new programs but by new minds with no programs at all."
I believe that A Place Apart is saying the same thing.
