A World of Change
The Internet is about 4,000 days old. Our world is changing. In fact, no U.S. president has died under the same flag he was born under. The [...]

A couple thoughts from Irresistable Revolution
June 7, 2007
There was a quote I remember that came out of last year’s Willow Creek Leadership Summit with Bono. Someone said they went to see if Bono was really a Christian, but they left wondering if they were really Christians.
That’s what this book has done to me. It makes me wonder if I’m a Christian.
I mean [...]
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.
I absolutely love having the world [...]
Seeing the Divine…

Continuing our Creativity & Spirituality series…
Seeing the Divine, takes time.
In Exodus, after wandering the dessert for forty-years, it describes Moses seeing something there he had not ever seen before. He encounters a bush that did not seem to ‘burn up’.
As Moses approaches he discovers God calling out to him from within the [...]

Creativity Amuck…
April 9, 2007
When God created us as creative beings, he must’ve known that we were going to make a mess of things.
Attempting to creatively teach creativity for me had its share of unfortunate incidences as well.
I should have known better that with candles and crayons available people would’ve put the creatively put the two together and caused [...]

The Master Artist…
April 5, 2007
Years back I was taught to memorize Ephesians 2:8-9. It speaks of how every one of us have been saved by grace through faith, and that it is not something we alone can work ourselves towards, but it is a beautiful gift from God should we be willing to receive it.
However as wonderful [...]
Ever been possessed?
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 [...]
And so I handed in my resignation letter…
July 12, 2006
It’s been four years since I graduated and began working at IBM and it’s been 4 years since I’ve known that this is the summer I’ll be leaving it all behind. Much praying and planning has went into this journey. I recently extended my thirty year plan into a sixty year plan… just [...]

From the tomb…
April 15, 2006
On the front page of the Toronto Star newspaper today was an essay by James Loney. He was abducted in Iraq by Islamic militants and held hostage for three months and shares his life-altering experience. Full article here.
I felt the below excerpt was deeply profound:
I am learning many things from my captivity, and [...]
Millions…
February 10, 2006
I just rented, and ended up keeping and buying the movie Millions. It’s a british indi-film that only made 6 million at the box office, but I absolutely love.
It’s a quaint and charming PG movie about a boy struggling to do what he believes is right, no matter how naive, in a world that [...]
