so, a little bird informed me that kenda dean had all her ph.d. students at princeton read the manuscript of my book (releasing in october), youth ministry 3.0. and they’re having a discussion about it on wednesday. i’m concurrently flattered, intrigued, and a bit freaked out!
i think i’d like to be a fly on the wall during the discussion, unless they all think it’s the most absurd book they’ve ever read!

i have their emails if you want to email stalk! haha! i am sure it will be well received
I’ll be that would make for good convo. Get somebody to sneak a recorder in there!
Perhaps the same little bird will report back the most constructive parts of the conversation.
Great campus that is.. I live in NJ Mark, maybe I’ll drop by the class to see what they are talking about.. :)
I am no Princeton but I know that I would be more than willing to proof your manuscript!
Marko — Yes, definitely let us know the results of this conversation! All this good stuff going on at PTS… almost makes me wish I were back there studying again. Almost :)
If there is one word I would use to describe Kenda’s scholarship and teaching it would be generosity. As a former research assistant to Kenda, she always lifts up the positive first and then usually stays there. Plus, she and I have agreed a few times that YS brings to the table a check and balance to what PTS IYM brings to the table. All in all a great thing. Plus…she’s got a new book in the pipes too…you’ll get your chance soon enough :)
