New blog, new season - Go to bensternke.com

Amazing how time flies! I started this blog over four years ago to document some of the questions I was wrestling through as I tried to figure out church and ministry and culture and Christian witness in a rapidly changing cultural landscape.

And while today certainly doesn't end the asking of those kinds of questions, it does mark the end of this blog. I am heading into a new season of life and it felt like a good "line in the sand" to start a new blog with a new direction and focus for my writing.

The new season is that I am planting a church in Fort Wayne along with several others who have been meeting, worshiping, dreaming, arguing and praying together for the past 18 months or so. I will be cycling out of pastoral oversight duties at Heartland, but will likely continue there for a season in a part-time capacity as we get a foundation in place to plant.

As we head into this exciting new venture, I'm going to be learning and wondering and asking and reading and risking and doing, and I am eager to share that journey with others. I will be sharing the vision we have and the questions we're wrestling with and would love it if you'd join the conversation.

So starting today, I am blogging at bensternke.com, and won't be blogging here any more (Update your links please! I think my RSS feed should stay the same, though). Hope to keep hearing from y'all on the Interwebs!
