As some of you may remember, I keep track of Jesus Creed conversation, see The Death of Blogs. The recent exploration of Christ-and-culture through interaction with John Stackhouse's, Making the Best of It, has been excellent and I would commend it to you, see Christian Realism 1 (note: which gives significant attention to Anabaptists) and Christian Realism 2. One comment refers to Mirslav (sp?) Volf's Soft Difference:  Theological Reflections on the Relation Between Church and Culture in 1 Peter. Wow! Soft Difference is well worth prayerful consideration. Has anyone previously come across this piece? Would love to have the reactions of others.

BTW, I've interacted w/both McKnight and Stackhouse at separate InterVarsity conferences on campus ministry and they have a lot of challenging material to offer the follower of Christ. Some posts in the past which have included material from them:

Scot McKnight
accessibilism?
Grad & Faculty Ministry Staff Conf.
Resurrection Reflection
Secondary Calling Challenges
Spiritual Discipline of Singing/Music?
University Professors and Faith

John Stackhouse
Crazy and Conflicted about Sex
The Vocation of Student Mission

FYI, their thoughts on the Evangelical Manifesto: Scott McKnight, John Stackhouse
