RiverBrew Makes the Paper
Feb 29, 2008 Print This Post
RiverBrew (our church’s brewing ministry) made it into the paper today.
I talk about it more over on WalkTheRazor.com.
Hi, I'm Noel and I'm a recovering hypocrite. I spend the majority of my time pastoring and teaching at Riverview, surfing the internet on my iProducts, and hanging out with my smoking hot wife and four wildly talented children. I plan on spending the rest of my life figuring out how to vicariously plant hundreds of churches without ever leaving my church. Oh, and even though I work for Riv, everything here is my personal opinion and nothing more.
Oh yeah, there are two more things you might need to know. The first is that I have disabled comments on this site. If you want to make a comment, head over to Facebook and you'll notice I have imported all my blog posts as "Notes." Sorry if this inconveniences you or if you don't use Facebook, it just helps me have a single place for dialog. Secondly, I don't have a very good archiving system here so if you are looking for something in particular, you are best served to use the search function above or try your luck with the categories or tags below.

[...] If i were a comedian instead of an academic, i would have come up with some clever joke involving Saint Peter walking into the Drunken Clam to introduce this link. But i’m not. So instead, i will steal a line from the discussed group’s webpage – “to resume the Church’s historical role as making the finest beer in town” – to mention an article about a church in Lansing, MI with a homebrew ministry – something i’d heard about from some friends of mine involved a while ago.

FYI, river-brew.com (with the hyphen) is going to expire soon and I’m not planning on renewing it since I later got riverbrew.com which I prefer.

I know your advocating and living moderation, but Super Dan look a little out of it in this picture I’m not sure it’s just the false teeth.

what do you think about the comments posted at the bottom of the article by readers?

“Drinking beer! WHAT IN THE WORLD!!
This is not church…. this is the rotary club. Where do you draw the line. If you are going to be a “Christian” be a “Christian” This is one of the craziest and shadiest things I have ever heard.
I hope they have a designated driver after they leave!”
Some people are just so intimidated by different points of view.

I’m REALLY glad that the LSJ printed Brett’s picture with the article and not the one above!
Over all it seems like a positive representation of Riverview. Of course there will always be those who will be shocked & appalled by things like this.
I agree that the LSJ poll wording could be better, but results around 50/50 seem encouraging to me.
