    Coming Soon: Exclusive Interview with Rob Bell

    In December Rob Bell, author of Love Wins, said goodbye to his church in Grand Rapids to pursue new ventures in California. I recently had a chance to talk with Rob about his new calling. The interview includes his thoughts on vocation, ministry, and how both are impacted by one’s eschatology (yes, he goes there), as well as the danger of labeling some callings “Christian” and other “secular.”

    The interview will be featured in the February SkyeBox Newsletter. You can subscribe on the right.
