Leave it to Paul Soupiset and his emergent friends to go retro on us. Yeah, they're going back to the magazine, like my daughter has fallen in love with vinyl records. She keeps buying them and wanting me to listen to them. Like I didn't live through the whole album thing the first time around.

And I've lived through the magazine thing too. And was settling into the idea that maybe magazines were done.

Not when the entire freakin magazine is one stunning work of art. Do you like pretty things? I mean do you like to go to museums and look at beautiful art? Well, you should lay your hand on this magazine because it's theology meets emergent thinking meets poetry meets photography meets Paul Soupiset's own inimitable style.

It's a limited run deal. I got mine in my hand. You'll have to subscribe if you want one. But this is definitely a venture I'm keeping my eye on.

If only because it's so yummy beautiful.

My favorite part of the first issue: Mark Menjivar's real photos of what's inside people's refrigerators. It says a lot about you.
