My review of Patty Griffin's latest
Children Running Through is up on
BlogCritics In short, you need to get this album. There's a good reason why it's one of the best reviewed albums of the year. If you haven't listened to Patty before and you like eclectic folk/americana/country/jazzy type stuff, find out what all the fuss is about.

blog post today about Rev. Richard Cizik, head of the Washington office for the National Association of Evangelicals. This guy rocks and he gets it about environmental issues. And it's just icing on the cake for me that he is pissing James Dodson and other right-wingers off. It's about time we have people who aren't practically nutcases speaking for evangelicals.
It's nice to see the tide starting to turn among evangelicals in small ways. We are starting a discussion group at our church for those of us who care about these things. I was amazed and heartened by how many people are thinking about climate change, sustainability and other issues.
