It was a really great opportunity to be able to be the Official Blogger for the Presbyterian Outlook at the 218th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (USA). Working with the Outlook staff was great, and they did a truly excellent job of reporting throughout the week. You can read their GA news here, and you can read the archives of my blogging here. Below are the blog posts I wrote during the week, the ones in bold being posts I enjoyed writing the most or ones that stirred up some controversy.

enjoyed following your posts adam. good stuff.
Great job, Adam, welcome to San Francisco.
Are there “ongoing cohorts” that formed from GA? In other words, did like-minded people find each other, and head out to work together?
What’s your next move? I know you are connected to a community in Marin, but were also looking for a (paid?) position? Ministry? Secular (editor, writer?)
I”m glad to finally be reading about Presbyterian Bloggers who were at GA and wrote, a lot, and wisely. Oh, and to not be so involved in Seminary classes at the moment – but a delayed question (clearly, 2 weeks later) – did you find people looking not for common ground conversation, but for reconciliation despite differences at all? Maybe that’s a silly notion – the whole transformation that doesn’t equate to “my side’s thinking,” but a girl’s allowed to dream, right?
