Death of a Rebel

renegade.jpgI have been an admitted "rebel" for as long as I can remember. Before I began to follow Jesus Christ I was a rebel. The launching of my identity as a true rebel was not directed toward my Mom, or "The Man", it was turning the pinnacle of high school social life into a… Continue

Thanks! The first time I went to Denver, I asked a local, "But where are all the people?" He laughed and said, "You must be near New York City." D has my fav blend of art, music, education, and nature close by. One of these days I'll head out that way, but not yet...
And PS-Jeremiah Johnson is an amazing movie.

Hi innov8r. Love the music! Thanks for posting the video of Dave and Chick. Just beautiful stuff. I feel a kinship in your music and your passion.

Hey, 8er... thanks for the comment (I'm beginning to feel at home).

And it was certainly weird to pop up to your page & see Dave Foster's book there - Dave was one of my mentors during those crazy church planting years.

Join us at Kensington Community Church (Troy, Michigan) on October 13-14 for a 2-day conversation on the future of the church in the post-Christian and Trans-human 21st century west.

Who is the Human Event for? Forward thinking, missional activists, thinkers, and leaders. If you think that may be [...]

Holiness and Risk

A few hours after touching down back in Scotland from The International Mentoring Network’s Immersion experience in Orlando, I found myself in a conversation about a Methodist Church initiative called Holiness and Risk.

Is it okay if I tell you a little about this? It’s a really intriguing kind of thing that can emerge [...]

Tomorrow and How to Get There – The Futuristic

Tomorrow.  Face it with either fear or anticipation, it doesn’t matter which, it is coming regardless of our grasp of it.  Fortunes have been made marketing knowledge about tomorrow whether that tomorrow is 24 hours away or 100 years distant.

Fortune tellers make the promise that that can allay our fears with their prognostication [...]

Communities of Knowing

In his book, The Message in the Bottle, Walker Percy tells the fictional story of a train that hurried through the countryside. The commuters on board saw the passing scenery as little more than a two-dimensional background rolling past their windows.

One day, though, the train breaks down and the commuters have to disembark by a [...]
