Less is more…

Continuing on our Creativity & Spirituality series.
I’ve been at IKEA seven times in the last eight days. I’ve found it extremely conducive for my school work, writing, scheming & dreaming. It’s got an excellent $1 breakfast, bottomless coffee or drinks, and a LACK of an internet connection.

Continuing the series on Creativity and Spirituality, the song writers today are the prophets and poets of our time.

Here’s just [...]
Cultural Innovators…
April 23, 2007
Innovation is a subset of creativity. It is about taking something that exists and transforming it into something new that is equally if not more extraordinary and beautiful.
If you know anything about religious culture, it often has an ‘us’ and ‘them’ mentality. We’re the chosen few and the rest of the world is [...]

Creation Re-imagined…
April 11, 2007
What if the whole earth was actually filled with the glory of God?
What if all of creation is groaning and hoping for even more beauty yet to be revealed?
What if since the beginning of time all creation has been screaming out that there is more to life than the visible?

She can’t sit up on her own yet, but she sure knows how to kick it back on the corner of the couch.
