Isn't it time for Ski and Bishop Katie to be at another schwaermer conference?
I checked and found out they were not too far away, at Little Rock, for The Dirt Conference. They still advertise Dirt, and it was over several weeks ago.
I linked it, as always, so the Mequon, New Ulm, and WLC students can look up the information.
The idea is to learn how these Emergent Church types emerge, so newbies can figure out how to copy them without soiling themselves:

Gateway Church

Call it venting. Call it a rant. Call it “up on my soapbox” if you want. But, I have something I need to get off my chest, an observation I made last week at the Dirt Conference and realized is true for us most of the time."
Before the Dirt Conference was a story conference. I believe Ski and Katie have already gone to more conferences than I have in my entire life.
Ski must be recovering because he has not blogged since July.
I would write more, but most of The CORE websty is restricted to MEMBERS ONLY. That means only 15 or so people on the entire planet can read the good stuff.
Get a large mirror. Practice sermon drama with Craig Groeschel, Life TV.

So, Ski attends all these "conferences" that are outside of fellowship. The Core websty ain't cha(sic - GJ - her sic) average WELS church blog. There are no pictures of Luther. The web designer could have, at the very least, included a lamb.(No, can't do that, might make the Core look too spiritual.) Why, tell me why, has Ski not been stripped of his pastoral duties? My pastor has stated that worshiping with the Baptists is wrong!
In Christ,

GJ - How could they extend the Left Foot of Fellowship when David Valleskey called it "spoiling the Egyptians"? The Ohio Conference endorsed Valleskey's odious paper and WLQ (aka The Popes Speak) published it as the latest revelation from God the Holy Spirit. The blog is still active where Ski bragged about how he worshiped awesomely with Andy Stanley.
Do not forget - the Appleton Dumbling gang is still tolerating this circus. I imagine a pastor or two objects, but Fox Valley remains the navel of the Shrinkage Movement in WELS.

Not to mention that we're still waiting for that verdict on Jeske and the RSO status for Time of Grace.
I know finances are rough, but shouldn't these things be our synod's top priority?

GJ - The jury--his Doctrinal Pussycat--has returned a verdict: "Not guilty by reason of being fifth generation WELS."
