We could create a collaborative organic farm/restaurant/commune or something like that. My only demand is that we have chickens running about and maybe a goat. You asked what I mean by "being" anabaptist or my line of "it's the best way I know that I can be Anabaptist." Well, I'm going to partially defer this answer to my speech and my "conundrum" post. The short version is that working for BMC brings together values of service, non-conformity, non-violence, and standing up for my vision for a healed church in the face of authority and doing all of this in as diverse of a community as we can manage. These are values that stuck out to me as I was learning about Anabaptists when I was growing up.

I've had too many conversations with other Mennos about starting coffee shops, restaurants, bakeries, etc. We've got to start coordinating. How about putting up to buy a farm (or find one that's already working) and starting there? And in the meantime, I really liked your line, "It's the best way I know that I can be Anabaptist." In the face-to-face conversations I've had about this blog, we've never really defined anything other than the "young" part (meaning we're mostly in our 20s but we welcome the young at heart, too). How do we "be" Anabaptist today? What does that line mean? I’m totally with you on that “radical anabaptist chef” bit.
