Intimate Spirituality and the Creative Journey

Date March 30, 2007

In our ‘class’ people are gathered in groups of four. To share not necessarily a ‘testimony’ but an experience or a moment in which they felt God became in anyway possibly more real to them.
What is it about sharing in smaller groups? Is it the defusing of fear in an intimate environment? [...]

Creative Environments…

Date March 28, 2007

Entering the room - I tried to create an environment that was different from any thing people were use to. Lights were shut off. Candles were scattered. Tables were covered with kraft paper from Montana’s Restaurant. Crayons were distributed for doodling. Music like U2’s “City of Blinding Lights” played.
I did [...]

Spirituality and Creativity

Date March 27, 2007

Over the next while the bulk of my writings will center around Spirituality & Creativity.
I just finished teaching a four-week series on the topic and I hope to offer readers a glimpse into it, while fleshing out more of the thoughts and experiences that arose.

Together (that means you), I hope to explore [...]

And so it begins…

Date March 23, 2007

I was reading up on where my daughter is developmentally, and according to this website, it states that as she enters the fourth month,
“She is starting to realize that she can influence the world”
Don’t tell me she isn’t preparing for world domination here…

I wonder when so many of us stop thinking we can influence the [...]

Ever been possessed?

Date March 21, 2007

I think there was something I was suppose to talk about at the conference, but I ended up simply sharing a bit about my life and doing an anything goes Q&A for the rest of the time.
When it comes to speaking to crowds, I don’t think on-the-fly talks that can be done over the long [...]

Risky Leadership…

Date March 17, 2007

“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing”, if what Edmund Bruke says is true, then passive neutrality will never overcome evil in this world.
Risky leadership is unafraid of moving forward in the face of uncertainty. The apostle Paul went from city to city so that [...]

High school all over again…

Date March 15, 2007

I’ve been speaking at Teen’s Conference over the last few days. Looking into the eyes of these incredible emerging adults, I had forgotten how lost I was when I was their age.
- thoughts of ending my life secretly plagued me
- I mocked anyone who wanted to do anything significant with their life
- my journals [...]

Stealing grace…

Date March 12, 2007

Years back as a young punk kid, a friend and I stole some video games downtown.
Even worst, we put it in the backpack of another friend, without telling him. I remember sweating as I watched him prance through the metal detectors completely oblivious he was carrying our stolen goods.
Needless to say my friend wasn’t [...]

Wrist-slapped

Date March 9, 2007

Yesterday we got pulled over by the police and were rudely slapped with a ridiculous $500 fine of tickets!
Because we moved, we never got notifications that Yvz license and our plates had expired, just last month. On top of that the insurance card was misplaced.
How’s a guy suppose to change the world, when I’ve [...]
