.bE: What do I love when I love my God?
April 23, 2007
If you are going to be in Atlanta this Thursday, April 26th, I’d encourage you to stop by Grandma Lukes in Little Five Points, between 7-9pm. My friend Jake and I are putting together an alt.worship gathering called .bE, whose theme is “What do I love when I love my God?” The service is sponsored by Trinitas Church, the church plant that Jake is doing in the Little Five Points area of Atlanta. It really will be more of a worship installation, so I’d encourage you to come anytime between 7-9pm; you don’t have to be there right at 7. I think it’s going to be a very unique alt.worship experience. We’ve done our best to incorporate Derrida, Levinas, Kierkegaard and Christian mystics into this worship installation, hoping it will be a very postmodern alt.worship experience.

A question about your emphasis on the “very postmodern”nature of this event:
Do elements of creativity, sensory experience, individual piety, meditation, ritual actions, etc. in worship necessarily constitute the experience postmodern? Is this worship postmodern or is it merely alternative? Sometimes I wonder if contemporary theological thinkers confuse the two. What makes this worship experience explicitly postmodern? And, for that matter, what makes it explicitly worship?
I’m not trying to be argumentative, I promise. I’d just like to hear your thoughts.

Well, by golly, the B in .bE appears to finally have graduated to being a capital letter — at least on the poster. Congrats to the B.
