About mockingbirdnyc

- From: mockingbirdnyc
- About Me: WHAT: Mockingbird is a ministry that seeks to connect the historic truths of the Gospel with the realities of everyday life in as down-to-earth a way possible. WHY: Are we called Mockingbird? The name was inspired by the mockingbird’s peculiar gift for mimicking the cries of other birds. In a similar way, we seek to repeat the message we have heard - God’s Word of grace and forgiveness - with the understanding that none of us ever moves beyond our need to hear the basics. HOW: Via every medium available! At present this includes (but is not limited to!) a daily weblog, regular conferences, and an ongoing publications initiative. The deeply relational nature of our message/material also means that everything we do is undergirded and surrounded by as much face-to-face time as possible. WHO: We employ two full-time staff, David Zahl and Sean Norris. We also have a number of contributing volunteers and writers. For more info email: mockingbirdnyc@gmail.com
