Hipster Churches in Silicon Valley






Hipster Churches in Silicon Valley


January 30th, 2015

This one made me laugh, but it also reminded me of an old piece on io9: Don’t Drink the Kool-Aid of These Science Fictional Cults.

Via: Guardian:

When raising the issue of how to reach younger Bay Areans, one ministry in particular came up several times: Reality SF, which makes its Sunday home in a middle school auditorium in the Castro district. Reality’s website features a group of shiny young millennials lounging gaily in picturesque Dolores Park (marijuana truffles and beer not pictured). Its teachings, which are published online, address subjects like “re-imagining singleness�, “tech in spirituality� and “wisdom for charity� in a blend of CS Lewis quotes, TED Talk references, and occasional guests from groups like Praxis, a “kingdom-centered� business accelerator.

    This big one in Seattle imploded. Mars Hill had its main church in Ballard, a up and coming area. It was hipster in that they emphasized an indie rock band and having younger members, but their ‘values’ were calvinist and rather fundamentalist – women weren’t supposed to work outside the home etc. http://crosscut.com/2014/07/16…..-meltdown/
