There are just some stories that can’t wait until you have that quiet moment to blog. So you minimize the spreadsheet, stop thinking about interns and login to wordpress. This is one of those stories.

So this guy comes into the office today and my managing director (MD) is talking to him, they introduce him to me and that is where the conversation takes off and I alternate in storytelling mode…

MD: Have you met [guy]
Me: Nope
shakes his hand
Guy: Oh nice to meet you
walks away

MD: [Guy] is one of the smartest online organizers you’ll ever meet. (insert look of awaking toward me) You would find him fascinating. He’s working on an ethnographic look at Young Progressive Evangelicals.
walks into the office he went into
Are you still working on that project…cause you know [Me] is…
(enter another outreach staffer)
Staffer: …a young progressive evangelical.

So, at least I’ve learned my office overall day 4 view of me…I’m a young progressive evangelical, not so much the conservative, Anglican-leaning that I’ve been lately. Although when it comes down to it, I don’t quite fit in any of the molds, not stereotypically conservative, and yet not overly progressive. But it was funny, cause we then chatted about my “faith tradition,” where I go to church now, was I raised Anglican, what evangelical movement was I actually raised in. It was pretty hysterical…still chuckling.
