Jon Trott) is part of the community <a href="http://jpusa.org/">Jesus People USA</a>, in turn the sponsor of <a href="http://cornerstonefestival.com/">Cornerstone Festival</a>. This year's line-up of outstanding speakers can be found on the official <a href="http://www.cornerstonefestival.com/cstoneXchange/2008/">CornerstoneXchange</a> Seminar program page. Cornerstone Festival, by the way, has been Christianity's premier arts festival for nearly three decades, and we're just getting started. A few of the speakers include: Miroslav Volf on Identity, Otherness & Reconciliation Shane Claiborne (& the "Jesus for President" Tour) William Cavanaugh on "The Theopolitical Imagination" Michael Spencer (aka Internet Monk) Anthony Smith (aka Postmodern Negro) Karen Sloan (Flirting With Monasticism) Andy Whitman (Paste magazine) on Music Crystal Downing (How Postmodernism Serves [My] Faith) and (A Good War is Hard to Find) Gordon Melton on "Witch-Hunters & Cult-Busters" And then there's Mimi Haddad, who happens to be the President of <a href="http://cbeinternational.org/">Christians for Biblical Equality</a> as well as a dear friend to my wife Carol and I, offering "Mama Don't Preach." There will be some dozen or two other speakers (a few listed below in the tags, many more on the afore-linked pages) and the usual mass of bands and musical troubadors of every style and substance artistically known to humanity (they may or may not have the kazoo artist back this year). Carol and I sure hope to see you at Cornerstone Festival this year!
