PCCCA

I am at the Presbyterian Church Camping and Conference Association annual conference this week. Pretty cool so far. It is me and Julie and 100 camp directors. They seem to be a pretty fun lot, very open and friendly. I think they seem to look at the few non-directors who are here as potential resources to be used. I like that better than the “you dont belong here” attitude. Still I am getting tired of being someone who is in training, at school … someone not in any kind of field. I feel like i could be doing so much more, that I am ready to do so much more. Being at school is good too, when I am there and am engaged and active. When I am here in the in-between space I really want to get on with it.

Good conference though. There is a lot of talk about postmodernism and the changing nature of the church and the associated camps. I am definitly ahead of the curve here, Postmodernism is old news in most seminaries. Now there is talk of post-postmodernism. The idea that we are finnally moving beyond postmodernism to the next iteration of western thought evolution. Rodger Nishioka (sp?) from Colombia is doing our keynotes at night. I am hoping that he go there and tell us what he is thinking about the next step. Maybe I will talk about what i think the next step is sometime here.
