About

Nuance is a weird name. It’s a weird word. I internally debated using it because it kind of sounds like the name of a strip club, you know, like “Club Nuance.” It sort of sounds French, too, and we live near Canada where people speak French and go to strip clubs (at least in the local commercials).

But the word denotes the expression of “subtle shades of meaning, feeling, or tone,” and that’s why I used it. This blog will (hopefully) feature several authors, all of them participants in a Christian small group in Burlington, VT; and our focus here, as in our small group, will be to navigate the deep meanings of walking with Jesus, by His Spirit, in this time, place, and context. It seems that evangelicalism misses this quite often, settling for a one-dimensional view of the Scriptures and Christian life, creating a narrow culture that so many cannot relate to or connect with. We are convinced that Jesus is deeper, and we are attempting to indulge our spiritual senses in that truth day by day.

I don’t know if we have any identity as a group beyond that. We are not angry people. We’re passionate though. We would love to see God impact our tiny cultural center in a relevant and powerful manner, and we are simply on a journey towards that goal in our everyday lives as artists, students, snowboarders, surfers, and amateur theologians.

If you’d like, feel free to journey with us.
